The TE-5000DBL is a high volume air sampler specifically configured for Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) monitoring in compliance with EPA ambient air quality standards. This system delivers reliable collection of airborne particulate matter with no size-selective inlet, capturing particles up to approximately 25-50 µm aerodynamic diameter depending on wind conditions.
EPA-Compliant TSP Monitoring
Designed for determining compliance with primary and secondary national ambient air quality standards for particulate matter, the TE-5000DBL follows the 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix B reference method for TSP collection. The sampler draws a measured quantity of ambient air through a filter during a 24-hour sampling period, maintaining flow rates of 40-60 ft³/min held constant over the sampling period.
Digital Timer & Brushless Motor Technology
The integrated digital timer provides precise programming capability for repeatable sampling periods, eliminating the variability of mechanical timers. The brushless motor assembly delivers consistent performance while significantly reducing maintenance requirements compared to brush-style motors. This combination ensures reliable, unattended operation in continuous field deployment.

System Configuration & Compatibility
The TE-5000DBL is part of Tisch Environmental's comprehensive TE-5000 series, with configurations available for different power requirements and timer options. This specific model combines digital timing with brushless motor technology and 110V power for standard North American installations. The total volume of air sampled is corrected to EPA standard conditions (25°C, 760 mm Hg) for accurate concentration calculations.
Applications
Suitable for ambient air quality monitoring stations, research facilities, and regulatory compliance programs requiring TSP data collection. The collected sample provides adequate material for subsequent chemical analysis including metals analysis and source characterization studies. Used by environmental monitoring agencies, industrial hygienists, and research institutions for comprehensive particulate matter assessment.
The TE-5000DBL housing includes all core components needed for routine field sampling, with manual motor speed adjustment and traditional instrumentation in a robust, weather-resistant package designed for long-term outdoor deployment.
