Introduction

The User Manual provides instructions for the set-up, installation, operation and maintenance 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 is designed for use 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 is designed to have a versatile control system with software that enables easy to use interface to control the experiment.

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 base elements are shown in the base module, as can be seen on the photo …. . 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. 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.
