Lab devices for particle analytics from BRAVE Analytics

We built our BRAVE particle analysis devices as a modular platform which can be configured to suit your requirements. Talk to us about your challenges and we will find the best solution for you. BRAVE instruments can be upgraded with additional modules at a later date. We can also support you in coupling them to your existing instrumentation. Get in touch!

Take a closer look at our BRAVE particle analysis modules

All benchtop modules require the BRAVE B-Curious Base Station (except BRAVE B-Phat standalone).
BRAVE Analytics also has a PAT solution of each lab device.

BRAVE B-Curious

Particle sizing, PSD determination

BRAVE B-Curious determines the particle size distributions of polydisperse systems with single-particle sensitivity.

Delivers automated, continuous and time-resolved results.

Detects ultra-low particle concentrations as well as large-particle tails, LPC, anomalies and outliers. 

  • Detection range

    50 nm* to 3 µm* (*sample-dependent)

  • Concentration range

    min. 106 particles/ml (optimal: ≤1010 particles/ml)

  • Particles measured per minute

    Up to 1000 particles per minute (sample-dependent)

BRAVE B-Aware

Detection of small particle signals and object counts

The BRAVE B-Aware module detects and tracks very small particles (from 5 nm) and delivers particle counts and particle concentration values.

Ideal for detecting the onset of aggregation and tracking sample behavior when very small particles are involved.

Continuous in-flow measurement.

  • Detection range

    5 nm* to 50 nm* (*sample-dependent)

  • Concentration range

    Sample-dependent

  • Particles detected per minute

    Over 1000 particles per minute (sample-dependent)

BRAVE B-Elementary

In-flow Raman analytics

The BRAVE B-Elementary module detects and identifies particles (<1 µm) and microplastics (1 µm to 50 µm) using Raman spectroscopy.

Automated measurement & minimum sample preparation for user-independent results.

Continuous in-flow measurement, ideal for detecting low particle concentrations, even with fluorescent substances.

  • Detection range

    Nanoparticles (<1 µm) and microplastics (1 µm to 50 µm)

  • Concentration range

    Sample-dependent (including ultra-low concentrations)

  • Particles detected per minute

    Approx. 100 particles per minute (sample-dependent)

BRAVE B-Phat

Large particle detection

The BRAVE B-Phat module detects and sizes large particles based on dynamic imaging / obscuration principles. 

Can be used to assess PFAT5 values, detect large aggregates, large-particle tails and anomalies.  

Also useful for predictive maintenance.

  • Detection range

    2 µm* to 80 µm* (*sample-dependent)

  • Concentration range

    under evaluation

  • Particles detected per minute

    under evaluation
