Quick View Leaflet
The portable high volume air sampler is light-weight and made of Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP). It is a mains-operated instrument. The air sampler has an inbuilt embedded controller to start, stop, log and to calculate the total volume of air sampled. The ambient air is sucked at a desired flow rate up to 2800 lpm and made to pass through a glass fiber filter paper for a given duration of time.
Salient Features
- Wireless Remote for safer operation
- On/off Timer
- GPS / Location
- Flow Controller
- Data Logging
Applications
- Can be used by pollution control boards for collection of suspended particulate matter in monitoring environmental pollution.
- Can be used by industries discharging particulate effluents, for the collection of samples for the purpose of monitoring.
- Can be used in nuclear installations for the collection of air samples to estimate air-borne radioactivity levels.
Detailed Technical Brochure
Portable high volume air samplers are employed to collect the airborne particulates in a glass fiber filter paper. After collection, the filter paper is analysed for required sample of interest. An indigenous portable high volume air sampler has been designed, fabricated and tested by, Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research, DAE.
