    FOAMSCAN™ combines multiple foam generation modes and measuring tubes to cover the widest range of applications.

    Gas Sparging

    Foam generated by injecting gas through a porous glass filter at controlled flow rate.

    Mechanical Stirring

    Foam generated by agitating the liquid in a stirring chamber at controlled speed.

    External Generation

    Analyze foam produced by any external device or process.
