The VSP-C1 can be used by researchers who want to produce inorganic nanoparticles from conductive materials for applications in fields ranging from cluster research to materials science.  


The VSP-C1 is designed for users who want to control experiments with the VSP-G1 and MFC+ to produce inorganic nanoparticles from conductive material for applications in fields ranging from cluster research to material science. The VSP-G1 (“Generator”)is a desktop spark generator that uses spark ablation technology to produce aerosol nanoparticles after a high voltage spark evaporates part of two metallic electrodes. The MFC+(“mass flow controller”) is a desktop device that has a mass flow meter (i.e. the sensor) combined with control valve and feedback electronics between sensor and valve.

==== Starting the C1 for the first time ====
==== Set-up The VSP-C1, VSP-G1, and MFC+ ====
 
For the total set-up of these devices you need a flat surface sufficient enough to place the VSP-G1, VSP-C1, and MFC+ on.
 
''VSP-C1''
 
Place the VSP-C1 device on the surface. Plug the power supply into the VSP-C1 and into a power supply. The VSP-C1 will automatically start-up and shows the following interface:

After setting up the VSP-G1 and MFC+ the connection dots will go from red (''not connected'') to green (''connected'')
 
''VSP-G1''
 
Place the base unit on a flat surface, ensuring sufficient space around the sides and back of the unit for gas, power and communication connections.
Do not connect the system to a power supply until everything has been properly assembled.
 
 
For a detailed set-up of the VSP-G1, you can visit the [[VSP-G1_User_Manual#Setting_up_the_base_unit|user manual]].
 
''MFC+''
 
Place the MFC+ on the surface with the VSP-C1 and VSP-G1 nearby. Connect the MFC+ with the wire to the USB port of the VSP-C1. Plug the power supply in. Connect the one of the blue wires to a gas outlet and the other can be connected to the VSP-G1.

Introduction

The User Manual provides instructions for the set-up, operation, system care, and troubleshooting of a VSParticle C1 Controller (“VSP-C1”) unit.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the VSP-C1 unit you have purchased or any information within the provided user documentation, please contact us via the contact details at the top of this page.

The VSP-C1 can be used by researchers who want to produce inorganic nanoparticles from conductive materials for applications in fields ranging from cluster research to materials science.

The VSP-C1 is designed for users who want to control experiments with the VSP-G1 and MFC+ to produce inorganic nanoparticles from conductive material for applications in fields ranging from cluster research to material science. The VSP-G1 (“Generator”) is a desktop spark generator that uses spark ablation technology to produce aerosol nanoparticles after a high voltage spark evaporates part of two metallic electrodes. The MFC+ (“mass flow controller”) is a desktop device that has a mass flow meter (i.e. the sensor) combined with control valve and feedback electronics between sensor and valve.

The VSP-C1 has a versatile control system with software that enables easy to use interface to control the experiment.

Operating System

Setpoints & Scheduling

Base unit with MFC & G1

With the VSP-C1 you can directly control the supply of the VSP-G1 voltage and MFC+ flowrate. The two elements are shown in the BASE(VSP G1/MFC) module.

The setpoints can be filled in for the MFC+ and VSP-G1. For the MFC+, the flowrate in l/min, gas type, and limit pres. in mbar can be set. For the VSP-G1, the voltage in kV, current in mA, material, reactor, spark state, and glow avoidance can be set. In the ‘Apply’ section you can schedule your experiment when you are finished with the filling in the setpoints. The options are between now, in such minutes, and at what time.

  • Apply now, in, or at,

  • Scheduled events

    Scheduled events

In the schedule events section, you can view your experiment settings, device, and setpoints.

Optional G1 or MFC+

It could be that you have chosen for multiple G1’s or MFC+ in the series. The extra setting will be shown in the software and with the option to customize the belonging setpoints.

This illustrates an extra G1 that is called G1_2.

  • Optional G1_2

    Optional G1_2

Monitor Metrics

The Monitor Metric section shows the values per setting. It provides an overview of the current value that is observed during the experiment.

The G1 & MFC graph shows the flow [l/min], flow setpoint [l/min], pressure [bar(a)], spark current [mA], spark current setpoint [mA], gap voltage [kV], and gap voltage setpoint [kV] for definite timeframe. The overview of the graph provides insight into these values during the experiment.

In the Scheduling VSP-C1 the timestamp, source, and message are noted in order to retrieve all control logs.

Data Management & Download

The data during the experiment is logged and can be downloaded in the menu bar under Data. The following options can be found:

  • Download
  • Disk space
  • Disk clean-up.

The download option allows you to select your data with a start and end date and download it in a csv. The disk space shows how much space is left in megabytes and percentage in the disk space. The last section is the disk clean-up where data can be manually removed from 10, 25, 50, or 100 days. You can also choose to rebuild the database. The deleted data cannot be recovered and will be lost after deletion.

Data Download

Data download, space, cleanup
