FlowCam® 8000 Series Dynamic Imaging Particle Analyzer 

 

24 of 39 

 

 

7.

 

The Fluidics tab is where you define the sample volume, flow rate, autoimage rate, efficiency, 

run time, priming type, and sample dilution parameters. 

 

Note:

 The machine prime option uses the built-in functionality of the fluid position sensor. 

8.

 

The Filter tab lets you select an image filter (ESD, ABD, none, advanced) and set its minimum 

and maximum diameter values to specify the size range of the particles of interest to save.
