Laser Diffraction Systems to be Utilized to Measure Spray Droplet Size in a Wind Tunnel System

2026-11-03

2 Laser Diffraction System The Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station is seeking bids for two ( 2 ) laser diffraction sensors and associated hardware that will be used to determine particle size of droplets produced during liquid pesticide application . The lasers will primarily be utilized to determine droplet size of spray droplets produced during spray application of agricultural products . Required Component / Specifications : Laser Diffraction System Measuring Range : 0 . 5 µm – 3500 µm Laser Beam Diameter : 26mm Working Distance from Lens to Spray Plume : < 1300 µm Laser Diffraction System Frame and Housing Material : Metal Dispersion Module Compatibility : Selected system must be compatible with future add - on dispersion modules to allow for measurement of dry powder , granules , etc . for non - spray applications . Data acquisition : Computer including monitor adequate to manage laser diffraction system and data acquisition must be included in bid Software : Appropriate software package to manage laser diffraction system and data acquisition must be included in bid Training : Training on use , maintenance , and safety of laser diffraction system and associated hardware / software must be included in bid
