Hi-Vol PM2.5 Air Sampler, MFC, Mechanical Timer, Brushless Motor, 110V

The TE-6070-2.5 high volume air sampler captures fine particulate matter at 2.5 µm aerodynamic diameter or less for environmental research and non-regulatory monitoring applications. Equipped with a PM2.5 size-selective inlet that separates fine particles from the ambient air stream, this system delivers controlled collection volumes suitable for gravimetric analysis of fine particulate mass concentrations.

Mass Flow Control Technology

The integrated mass flow controller (MFC) maintains precise flow rates by continuously adjusting blower motor speed based on real-time flow feedback. This closed-loop control compensates for filter loading effects and environmental variations, stabilizing sampling conditions throughout the 24-hour collection period. Flow control operates at actual volumetric conditions, ensuring consistent particle collection efficiency across varying temperature and pressure conditions.

Brushless Motor Operation

The brushless blower motor reduces maintenance requirements compared to traditional brush-style motors by eliminating carbon brush replacement intervals. Brushless design supports extended field deployment with reduced service visits, making this configuration suitable for remote monitoring locations or continuous sampling programs.

Control System

Mechanical timer provides straightforward start and stop control without electronic programming complexity
110V, 60Hz power configuration for standard North American electrical systems
Anodized aluminum shelter protects core components from weather exposure
8" x 10" filter holder accommodates standard high-volume filter media

PM2.5 Monitoring Applications

This sampler supports ambient air quality studies following methodologies consistent with 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix L principles for fine particulate matter measurement. The measurement process determines mass concentrations of particles with aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to 2.5 micrometers, expressed in micrograms per cubic meter of air (µg/m³). Applications include institutional research, source assessment studies, and enclosed environment monitoring where high-volume collection enhances detection limits for subsequent chemical or physical analysis.

Compatible Configuration Options

The TE-6070 series offers multiple configurations with different timer types (mechanical/digital), motor designs (brush/brushless), voltage options (110V/220V), and flow controllers (MFC/VFC/VFC Plus). Alternative PM10 configurations are also available within the same platform for multi-size particulate monitoring programs.
