The simple and low-priced KC-51, and the multifunctional KC-52 with a touch panel!

The handheld particle counters KC-51/KC-52 have a streamlined design that allows for accurate measurement results without obstructing the flow of sample air. They feature an ergonomic design with a large, easy-to-read display, providing user-friendliness for the operator. We offer two models: the simple and low-cost KC-51, and the multifunctional KC-52 with a touch panel. Both use environmentally friendly rechargeable batteries (lithium-ion batteries). For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.

Optimal for air cleanliness management in pharmaceutical manufacturing environments!

The KC-31/KC-32 air particle counters are suitable for air cleanliness management in pharmaceutical manufacturing environments (evaluating cleanliness classes according to ISO 14644-1, PIC/S, and EU-GMP Annex 1). Due to their high flow rate, measurement times are short, making them useful even in electronic device manufacturing sites. They are lightweight and can be battery-operated, allowing for flexibility in measurement locations. Approximately 5,000 measurement results can be stored in the built-in memory, and they can also be copied to a USB memory stick. Additionally, the housing is made of stainless steel, enhancing chemical resistance. For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.

Measurement of insoluble particles in injectable preparations at pharmaceutical factories: "Japanese Pharmacopoeia Test Method for Insoluble Particles in Injectable Preparations, Method 1: Light Obscuration Particle Counting Method."

The liquid particle counter 'KL-05' is an automatic measuring device that can measure fine particles with a diameter of 1.3 to 100 μm using a light obscuration method. It is suitable for measuring insoluble fine particles in injectable preparations in pharmaceutical factories. 【Features】 ■ Complies with the insoluble particle test for injectable preparations as specified by the Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP), United States Pharmacopeia (USP), European Pharmacopoeia (EP), Korean Pharmacopoeia (KP), and Chinese Pharmacopoeia (ChP). ■ Supports small volume measurements (USP 787). Small volume sample holders such as 10 mL capacity syringes and ampoules are available (optional). ■ Complies with FDA's 21 CFR Part 11. Enhanced operator and password management features. Also supports electronic signatures. ■ Measurement results can be output to LIMS and other systems via serial communication. ■ Measurement results can be output as PDF or text files. ■ Uses SSD as built-in storage to improve operational speed. ■ Measurable particle size range of 1.3 μm to 100 μm, rated flow rate of 25 mL/min (optional factory setting for 10 mL/min), and customizable particle size classification of up to 20 stages. ■ The semiconductor laser light source is guaranteed for three years. *For more details, please refer to the catalog. Demonstrations are also available, so feel free to contact us.

• Particle Counter

Chemical circulation filtration device suitable for cleaning particle counters and blank checks.

The "Chemiboy" is a device that maintains cleanliness by circulating and filtering the liquid, providing it to the particle counter. The minimum filtration particle size is 0.1 μm under standard specifications, and the maximum flow rate is 2 L/min, making it usable at 20°C (room temperature). This device is suitable for cleaning the particle counter and performing blank checks. 【Features】 ■ Maintains cleanliness while providing liquid to the particle counter through circulation and filtration ■ Minimum filtration particle size is 0.1 μm (standard specification) ■ Maximum flow rate is 2 L/min ■ Suitable for cleaning the particle counter and performing blank checks ■ Optional items such as glass overflow tanks and degassing membrane modules are available *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

At construction sites, temporary parking lots may be established for workers and construction-related vehicles. On unpaved ground, mud and ruts can easily occur due to rain, which may hinder vehicle access. Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering materials that utilize wood CLT. By laying them in temporary parking lots, a suitable environment for vehicle passage and parking can be created while protecting the ground. They can be laid only in the necessary areas, and after the construction is completed, they can be removed and repurposed for temporary roads or access routes. The 5×10 panels weigh approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panels weigh about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, allowing for changes in parking space. Additionally, they offer benefits unique to wood, such as glare reduction, noise reduction, and CO2 fixation. They are registered as a technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A," and can be utilized for the development of temporary parking lots and innovative public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
