PM10 Inlet Base Pan Hinge Bracket SKU: TE-6001-30

The TE-6001-30 is a precision-machined hinge bracket designed specifically for PM10 size selective inlets used in EPA-compliant high volume air sampling systems. This critical mounting component enables the proper positioning and articulation of the inlet base pan assembly within PM10 sampling systems that support the size selective inlet.

The hinge bracket provides secure attachment points for the inlet base pan while allowing controlled movement during maintenance and filter changes. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials, it maintains structural integrity in outdoor ambient monitoring environments where PM10 samplers typically operate at flow rates between 36-60 ft³/min during 24-hour sampling periods.

Compatibility

This hinge bracket is designed for use with the TE-6001 PM10 Size Selective Inlet assembly and compatible high volume air sampling systems. It works in conjunction with related components including the TE-6001-31 hinge shoulder bolt and TE-6001-32 strut bracket to provide complete inlet support.

The TE-6001-30 is compatible with all Tisch Environmental PM10 high volume air samplers designed according to 40 CFR appendix J to part 50 guidelines, including mass flow controlled (MFC), volumetric flow controlled (VFC), and PLUS technology systems.

Installation Notes

Proper installation ensures correct inlet positioning for size-selective separation where larger particulates are trapped inside the inlet while smaller PM10 particulates continue through to the filter. The bracket must be securely fastened using appropriate hardware to maintain inlet stability during sampling operations.

Regular inspection of mounting hardware is recommended as part of routine PM10 sampler maintenance to ensure continued compliance with federal reference method specifications.
