The Pi Raptor Portable, is a full featured particle size and shape analyzer enclosed in a ruggedized case for carry-on capability that enables taking a high-resolution particle analyzer anywhere. Having a portable system allows for at-site analysis with remote capabilities. The instrument uses Dynamic Image Analysis as a direct measurement technique, which has become more and more common as a Quality Control tool for raw materials in numerous industries. The new “Raptor” architecture offers a large array of improvements in image quality as well as functionality.
The Pi Raptor Portable is designed to operate as a fully functioning Particle Size and Shape Analyzer. It can be used at-lab where high quality data and ease-of-use is a requirement and it can also be closed and taken for remote use. The new sample handing capabilities also enable the system to operate for on-line applications.

Fluid cleanliness is a critical indicator of equipment health. When properly monitored will extend equipment life and can warn operators of eminent failures. Historically, this has been done using particle counting techniques that report the size distribution and particles present in fluid and reported in accepted formats such as the ISO 4406. However, automated particle counters cannot indicate what types of particles are present which presents a problem for operators.

When recycling drilling mud, it is important to understand what materials are in your mud. Many times it is impossible to understand why viscosity of used mud increases by using size-only particle analyzers. Only Dynamic Imaging will allow users to see the difference between the emulsions and the small barite particles not filtered out by the recycling process. Also, Dynamic Imaging can characterize your LCM materials, where shape, not just size, really matters.
