The TE-5010XZ Motor Voltage Controller/Elapsed Time Indicator provides precise motor voltage control and accurate elapsed time recording for brush-style high volume air sampling systems operating on 220 volts, 60 hertz power. This dual-function controller integrates motor speed regulation with tamper-proof time documentation, essential for EPA-compliant ambient air monitoring applications.
Voltage Control Operation
The voltage controller continuously adjusts output voltage to the blower motor, enabling manual flow rate adjustment throughout the sampling period. This system automatically adjusts motor output to compensate for filter loading and environmental conditions throughout the sampling period, maintaining consistent performance as particulate accumulates on sampling filters. The controller works specifically with brush-style motors, providing the variable voltage output required for manual flow control systems.
Elapsed Time Indicator Features
The elapsed time indicator features a six-digit readout with no reset capabilities, making it virtually tamper proof. The synchronous motor provides accuracy equal to that of the power line frequency, ensuring precise time documentation for regulatory compliance reporting. The ETI records total motor runtime, providing essential documentation for sample volume calculations and equipment maintenance scheduling.
Key Specifications

- Motor Type: Brush-style blower motors
- Time Display: 6-digit tamper-proof readout
- Voltage Control: Variable output for manual flow adjustment
- Timing Accuracy: Synchronous with power line frequency
Compatibility
This controller is specifically designed for brush-style high volume air samplers operating on 220V, 60Hz power systems. Compatible with brush-style high volume air samplers including PM10 systems designated as EPA RFPS-0202-141, working with brush motor assemblies such as the TE-116312 (220V replacement motor). The TE-5010XZ connects inline between the power source and motor assembly, providing both voltage control and elapsed time documentation in EPA-compliant ambient air monitoring configurations.
For international applications requiring 50 hertz operation, specify model TE-5010X. For 110V systems, use model TE-5010. For 110V systems, use the TE-300-310 instead. Requires TE-33378 motor brush set for 220-volt motor maintenance.
Applications
Designed for EPA-compliant ambient air quality monitoring including TSP, PM10, and PM2.5 particulate sampling. The voltage control capability makes this controller suitable for applications requiring precise flow documentation for regulatory compliance, source assessment studies, and long-term environmental monitoring programs where manual flow adjustment is required during sampling operations.
