Bug Screen with Safety Edging for TE-6001 PM10 Inlet SKU: TE-6001-20

The TE-6001-20 Bug Screen with Safety Edging is a critical protective component designed for the TE-6001 PM10 Size Selective Inlet system. This screen prevents insects, debris, and other airborne contaminants from entering the inlet while maintaining proper airflow characteristics for EPA-compliant ambient air monitoring.

Technical Design

The bug screen features safety edging construction that provides enhanced durability and safe handling during installation and maintenance. The screen mounts to the PM10 inlet system to protect the filter cartridge and internal components from contamination that could compromise sample integrity or damage sensitive sampling equipment.

Key Specifications

• Engineered for high volume air sampling applications
• Safety edging prevents injury during handling
• Maintains inlet aerodynamic performance
• Weather-resistant construction for outdoor deployment

Compatibility

This bug screen is specifically designed for use with the TE-6001 PM10 Size Selective Inlet assembly. It is compatible with all PM10 high volume sampling systems that utilize the TE-6001 inlet configuration, including both mass flow controlled (MFC) and volumetric flow controlled (VFC) systems.

Installation and Maintenance

The safety edging design facilitates safe installation and removal during routine maintenance. Regular inspection of the bug screen is recommended to ensure optimal performance and prevent accumulation of debris that could affect sampling accuracy. Replace when damaged or when mesh integrity is compromised.

Applications

Essential for EPA-compliant PM10 ambient air monitoring applications where particulate matter less than 10 micrometers must be accurately collected. Protects sampling integrity in outdoor monitoring stations, source assessment programs, and long-term ambient air quality monitoring networks.
