F-701-20 Ambient Air Dust Concentration Monitor
Description
Ambient air particulate monitor to detect TSP, PM10 or PM2.5 in ambient air for use in industrial or governmental ambient air monitoring networks.
Overview
- Determination of dust mass concentration in ambient air independent of matter
- C-14 method, no measurable decrease in activity
- Lowest radioactivity of all beta gauges, usable without license for handling radioactive substances acc. to governmental regulations
- Automatic zero point correction
- Sample gas flow, stabilized 1m³/h
- Suction of a constant sample gas flow rate independent of ambient temperature and pressure
- Repeated sampling on the same spot
- Collected dust sample available for component analysis, e.g. heavy metals
- RS-232 interface and analog output, status signals
Your Benefit
- Certified for official ambient air particulate matter monitoring
Type approved according to EN 15267-3 for PM2.5 or PM10, sample inlets available according to EN12341:2014 and TSP VDI2463, compatible with sample inlets according to US NAAQS 40CFR p.50 - Easy set-up
Install and instantly start accurate measuring: Accurate factory pre-calibration, gravimetric calibration only needed if required by law - Broad functional range
One device for all sorts of particulate matter: Maintenance-free and drift free source allows material independent measurement of PM 2.5 or PM10 or TSP - Compatible with existing air Quality networks
Device can be time synchronized, common interfaces are available - Low filter tape consumption
Smart filter tape consumption optimization: Filter spots are used up to 24 times per day depending on the measured particulate matter conditions - Remote data access
Device stores measuring data and status, errors and parameters for at least nine months and can show them on display or grant access via RS232 interface - Reliable monitoring
Automatic control functions and relative measurement compared with clean filter spot always ensure reliable and extremely stable daily mean values
Applications
- Ambient air-monitoring network for particulate matter monitoring
- Mobile immission measurement vehicle
- Dust measurement in OSH
- Indoor dust measurements
- Dust sampling for analysis of heavy metals and other components
- Long-term background studies of the immission dust exposure
- Dust monitoring and sampling in contaminated areas and storage facilities
- Dust measurement of diffuse emission of building sites or deposits (such as coal)
- Dust in intake and exhaust ducts
