High-Sensitivity Liquid Particle Counting

The Lighthouse Vertex50 Liquid Particle Counter is engineered for continuous monitoring of ultrapure water and other high-purity liquid applications where exceptional sensitivity and reliability are essential. Designed for industries where contamination control is critical, the Vertex50 delivers accurate, real-time particle counting while maintaining one of the lowest false count rates available.

Its compact footprint and advanced detection technology make it ideal for integration into laboratory and production environments where space and precision are equally important.

Advanced Gamma Immunity

The Vertex50 incorporates advanced photodetector technology that significantly reduces optical noise and minimises gamma-ray interference. This allows the instrument to detect genuine particles without requiring count subtraction, improving measurement accuracy and confidence in critical monitoring applications.

Real-time reporting provides immediate visibility of contamination events, allowing operators to respond quickly and maintain process integrity.

Designed for Critical Water Monitoring

Built specifically for ultrapure water applications, the Vertex50 supports continuous monitoring with fast system recovery following contamination events. Integrated manual flow control and building management system connectivity make it suitable for both standalone testing and permanent installation within critical facilities.
