PAMS (PORTABLE AEROSOL MOBILITY SPECTROMETER)

PAMS is an electrical mobility size spectrometer designed for portable, mobile, or handheld aerosol sampling applications. It provides the number-weighted diameter distribution of aerosols over the entire sub-micrometer range (10 to 863 nano meter) in one scan.

Features

• Electrical mobility size spectrometer designed for portable, mobile, or handheld aerosol sampling applications
• Provides number-weighted diameter distribution of aerosols over the entire submicrometer range (10 to 863nm) in one scan
• Uses a non-radioactive bipolar aerosol charger to allow easy access to sampling sites with tight safety regulations
• Bipolar charger significantly reduces measurement uncertainty of larger particles in the submicrometer range
• Can be used in two modes: Single diameter count mode: to get a total count within a narrow size range or Size distribution mode: to get an automated size distribution measurement over desired size range or size resolution
• Stand-alone, battery-operated instrument; no external computer needed.
• Weighs only 4.5 kg and measures 23 x 23 x 15 cm.

Applications

• Personal Nanoparticle/Aerosol Exposure Measurement
• Workplace protection factor measurement of respirators
• Atmospheric process studies
• Air pollution and air quality measurements
• Combustion and engine exhaust emission measurements
• Filtration studies
• Inhalation toxicology studies
• Indoor air quality studies
