The TE-6070VXZ-2_5 delivers high-volume collection of PM2.5 fine particulate matter with proven volumetric flow control technology for reliable field sampling operations. This configuration serves environmental monitoring applications requiring EPA-compliant PM2.5 data collection with dependable, field-ready controls.
Volumetric Flow Control Technology
Maintains consistent volumetric flow rate across varying field conditions using differential pressure measurement. This method provides for the measurement of the mass concentration of fine particulate matter having an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to a nominal 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5) in ambient air as specified in 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix L. The VFC controller automatically compensates for temperature and barometric pressure changes that affect actual flow rates during 24-hour sampling periods.
Key Specifications
- Power: 220V, 60Hz operation
- Motor: Brush-style drive system with field-proven reliability
- Timer: Mechanical timer for simple start/stop control
- Flow Control: VFC (Volumetric Flow Control) with differential pressure measurement
- Sample Type: PM2.5 fine particulate matter (≤ 2.5 µm aerodynamic diameter)
- Housing: Anodized aluminum outdoor shelter
PM2.5 Size-Selective Inlet
Equipped with PM2.5 size-selective inlet assembly that captures fine particulate matter while excluding larger particles. The mass concentration of PM2.5 in the ambient air is computed as the total mass of collected particles in the PM2.5 size range divided by the actual volume of air sampled, and is expressed in micrograms per cubic meter of air (µg/m³). The inlet configuration meets EPA reference method specifications for accurate size segregation.
Compatible Applications
- Non-regulatory PM2.5 monitoring studies
- Institutional and academic research programs
- Industrial hygiene assessments
- Source impact evaluations
- Regional air quality monitoring networks
