The TE-6001-37 Shelter Base Pan Catch with Bolt is a critical securing component for Tisch Environmental's anodized aluminum shelter assemblies used in PM10 high volume air samplers. This catch mechanism provides reliable closure and weathersealing for the shelter base pan access panels, ensuring proper sampler operation and protection of internal components.
Function and Design
The shelter base pan catch operates as a mechanical latch that secures the access panels of the shelter base assembly. The rugged construction allows the catch to withstand outdoor environmental conditions with minimal maintenance, maintaining secure closure throughout continuous 24-hour sampling periods.
Compatibility
This catch assembly is compatible with Tisch Environmental shelter base pan systems used in:
- PM10 high volume air samplers designed according to 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix J
- TSP high volume air samplers that collect total suspended particulates
- PM2.5 high volume air samplers housed in anodized aluminum shelters
Related shelter base components include TE-6001-35 Shelter Base Pan (aluminum pan), TE-6001-36 Shelter Base Pan Gasket (16" x 16"), and TE-6001-41 Shelter Base Pan Strut Holder Spacer.
Installation Notes
The catch assembly includes the mounting bolt for secure attachment to the shelter base pan framework. Proper installation ensures weather-resistant sealing and easy access for routine maintenance of flow controllers, timers, and sampling components housed within the shelter. Tisch Environmental uses high quality components to ensure reliability and consistency in demanding field monitoring applications.
Applications
Essential for ambient air quality monitoring installations requiring EPA Federal Reference Method compliance, including regulatory monitoring networks, industrial perimeter monitoring, and environmental compliance sampling programs.
