Select your wavelength, build and order online your nephelometer for the analysis of low turbidity solutions

The only IoT, Modular & Data-Driven Nephelometer on the Market.

The NEPHEL.O™ is part of our CASCAD.S™ instrument series. It represents the latest advancement in low turbidity measurements, delivering a fully customizable, modular, and data-driven turbidimeter. By using interchangeable optical CARTRIDGE.S™ operating at different wavelengths, this device enables easy and precise turbidity measurement at various scales.

Users can build and augment their NEPHEL.O™ as needed, when needed. Wavelength-specific optical CARTRIDGE.S™ can be plugged and operated in the NEPHEL.O™ at any time in order to fulfill existing applications or new projects.

The NEPHEL.O™ package includes the following components: 

  1. One (01) Core Unit of NEPHEL.O™
  2. One (01) Interchangeable Emission Optical CARTRIDGE.S™
  3. One (01) Interchangeable Reception Optical CARTRIDGE.S™
  4. One (01) Connectivity & Monitoring Tablet

NEPHEL.O™ - Core Unit

With the core unit of NEPHEL.O™, users can:

  • Use the sample holder that best suits their needs: 10 mL, 4 mL, or 1 mL vials, cuvette, or PCR-tube.
  • Operate the NEPHEL.O™ under a flow hood by leveraging the wireless communication capabilities of the operating tablet.
  • Benefit from the outstanding data acquisition and processing capabilities of the Soft Matter Analytics App that operates the instrument.
  • Add new core units to their existing system at any time, whether their testing needs evolve or new applications emerge.
  • Simply pair new NEPHEL.O™ units with their existing system and control up to five instruments from a single tablet with the Soft Matter Analytics App.
  • Tailor their system to precisely meet their needs by operating each NEPHEL.O™ unit independently and even with a different set of CARTRIDGE.S™ (wavelengths).

 

Interchangeable Emission Optical CARTRIDGE.

Users connect to the NEPHEL.O™ the emission optical CARTRIDGE.S™ of their choice that operates at the exact wavelength that specifically aligns with their applications and industry requirements. Users save by investing in interchangeable wavelengths instead of new instruments.

Users can choose among the following emission optical CARTRIDGE.S™:

  • 850 nm ± 5 nm (bandwidth < 3 nm)
  • 635 nm ± 5 nm (bandwidth < 3 nm)
  • 520 nm ± 1 nm (bandwidth < 3 nm)
  • 405 nm ± 10 nm (bandwidth < 3 nm)

With CARTRIDGE.S™, users can:

  • Choose the appropriate optical emitting CARTRIDGE.S™ operating at the wavelength that suits the needs of their specific application: particle size, particle concentration, etc.
  • Simply plug and use interchangeable emission optical CARTRIDGE.S™ with specific wavelengths.
  • Order new optical CARTRIDGE.S™ (wavelengths) as their applications and projects evolve with time.

Interchangeable Reception Optical CARTRIDGE.S™

NEPHEL.O™ uses one (01) reception optical CARTRIDGE.S™ positioned at 90° relative to the emission optical cartridge. The removable and interchangeable receiving optical CARTRIDGE.S™ of the NEPHEL.O™ operates between 400 nm and 1,000 nm.

Connectivity & Monitoring Tablet

The NEPHEL.O™ is operated by a Microsoft Windows touchscreen tablet that gives access to the Soft Matter Analytics App. Each tablet can simultaneously communicate and operate up to 5 different instruments. 

With the Soft Matter Analytics App, users can:

  • Set and manage tests: organize test files and folders, name an experiment, organize data, etc.
  • Set test duration and time steps to measure the time evolution of turbidity during a kinetics such as sedimentation, aggregation, etc.
  • Visualize and compare in real-time experimental measurements.
  • Create and transfer Excel reports.
  • Display measurements and built-on calculations: steady properties of materials, transient properties of materials with changes as a function of time, temperature or light (when applicable), calculation of kinetics rate (first derivative of turbidity kinetics as a function of time).
  • Customize and manage password-protected user accounts.
  • Customize and manage roles with different privileges (writing, reading, data transfer).
  • Assign roles to users.
  • Customize and manage instruments remotely connected to the Tablet App: pairing, configuration, displayed name and color.
  • Export the extensive and secured database of the instrument.
  • Update the App following simple procedures.
