New Personal Aerosol Monitor Developed

Thermo Scientific has developed the pDR-1500 Personal Aerosol Monitor, to meet a need for a fully integrated, active sampling personal scale instrument with accuracy, increased capabilities, low size and weight, maximum ease of use and increased operating time.
The pDR-1500 Personal Aerosol Monitor was designed for applications such as site remediation, size discrimination, mass validation, exposure modeling and protection of asthma patients.
The pDR-1500 Personal Aerosol Monitor features relative humidity compensation, true volumetric flow control and uses nephelometry as the measurement method. An integrated sample filter enables post-gravimetric validation of data. With the pDR-1500 Personal Aerosol Monitor, particle-cut points compared to those achievable using impactors are delivered through volumetric flow control and ACGIH traceable cyclones allowing measurement of PM-1 to PM-2.5, or PM-4 to PM-10.
