TE-6001-24 Shim Plate for PM10 Size Selective Inlet SKU: TE-6001-24

The TE-6001-24 Shim Plate is a critical component of the TE-6001 PM10 Size Selective Inlet system, designed for EPA-compliant ambient particulate matter monitoring. This precision-machined plate ensures proper alignment and sealing within the PM10 inlet assembly during high volume air sampling operations.

Key Function

The shim plate provides dimensional adjustment and maintains structural integrity within the PM10 inlet's multi-stage particle separation system. Before operating, the TE-6001-24 Shim Plate must be wiped clean to prevent contamination that could affect PM10 sampling accuracy.

Compatibility

This shim plate is specifically designed for use with:

• TE-6001 PM10 Size Selective Inlet for High Volume Ambient Air Samplers
• TE-6001-25 Shim Plate Clips (required for secure mounting)
• TE-6001-26 Springs for Shim Clips
• High volume air sampling systems operating at flow rates up to 60 SCFM

Installation and Maintenance

The shim plate works in conjunction with TE-6001-25 Shim Plate Clips and TE-6001-26 Springs for Shim Clips to secure proper positioning within the inlet assembly. Regular cleaning with appropriate solvents is essential to maintain sampling accuracy and prevent particle buildup that could compromise PM10 size selection efficiency.

Proper installation requires careful alignment with other inlet components including the acceleration nozzle plate and stage plates to ensure compliance with 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix J PM10 reference method requirements.
