The accessories are Hydro Sight, an imaging accessory, and Hydro SV, a wet dispersion unit.

Malvern's Hydro Sight provides visual monitoring of the dispersion process that precedes every laser diffraction particle size measurement. Dispersion is essential to ensure that particles are measured in a representative, relevant state. The images that Hydro Sight delivers can make it quicker to identify the best dispersion conditions for wet or liquid particle size analysis methods. They also the user to see what has gone wrong if problems are encountered during method application or transfer.
