How it Works:

Light from a Tungsten lamp (1) is focused and filtered by the primary optics module (2), then passes through a sapphire window (3) and into the sample chamber (4), where the light is scattered by turbidity and fine haze in the sample.

Light scattered in the forward direction is focused by the forward scatter optics (5) and detected by eight hermetically sealed silicon photo diodes set at an angle of 11° (6). Light that is not scattered is detected by the direct beam photo diode (7).

Side scatter light scattered is focused by the side scatter optics (8) and detected by the side scatter photo diode (9) at an angle of 90°.

The resulting photocurrents are precisely sampled, amplified, converted, analyzed, and recorded by the Haze Control converter.
