DeXel-Filtrate Optical NLV
Premium Nikon-Based Optical Particle Analyzer
A fully automatic particle analyzer built around a Nikon optical microscope platform and Conation software for detection, classification and reporting.

Overview
Choose Optical NLV when the laboratory specifies Nikon optical hardware for automatic particle analysis and may later configure the same platform for metallography.

Upgrade to Complete Metallography
Begin with the Optical NLV particle-analysis platform, then add the required 50X and 100X objectives and DeXel-Metallography Expert software when the laboratory is ready to configure a complete metallography system. The microscope, camera, computer and motion system remain in place.

Discuss Optical NLV for Your Laboratory
Share the Nikon platform requirement, particle range, sample volume and any planned metallography expansion. Conation will define the system configuration.
