TSP Plus Sampler, Brush Motor, 220V 50Hz SKU: TE-HVPLUSXZ

The TE-HVPLUSXZ is a high volume air sampler configured for Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) monitoring per EPA's reference method 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix B. This sampler collects particles with aerodynamic diameters of approximately 100 µm or less for ambient air quality compliance monitoring, research applications, and source assessment studies.

PLUS Controller Technology

The PLUS microprocessor-based controller incorporates built-in ambient temperature and barometric pressure sensors for accurate, real-time volumetric flow control. The total volume of air sampled is corrected to EPA standard conditions (25°C, 760 mm Hg [101 kPa]) ensuring precise TSP concentration calculations in µg/std m³. The digital timer provides battery backup, multiple elapsed time indicators, and four comprehensive data logs capturing average, minimum, and maximum environmental conditions plus total ambient and standard flow values. USB export capability enables convenient data retrieval for regulatory reporting.

Brush Motor Drive System

The proven brush motor assembly delivers reliable field performance at the 40-60 cubic feet per minute (ft³/min) flow rate required for EPA-compliant TSP sampling. Configured for 220V, 50Hz power systems, this motor provides consistent operation across international monitoring networks. The sample period must be 1,440 ±60 min. for a valid sample, and the motor maintains steady flow throughout this 24-hour collection cycle.

Key Specifications

• Power: 220V, 50Hz
• Motor: Brush-style drive assembly
• Controller: MFC PLUS with digital timer
• Sample Type: TSP (no size-selective inlet)
• Flow Rate: Volumetric flow controlled per EPA requirements
• Data Logging: Four logs with USB export
• Environmental Sensors: Built-in temperature and barometric pressure

Applications

Essential for ambient air quality monitoring programs requiring compliance with the primary and secondary national ambient air quality standards for particulate matter. The measurement process is nondestructive, and the size of the sample collected is usually adequate for subsequent chemical analysis including trace metals, organic compounds, and source apportionment studies. Suitable for regulatory monitoring networks, industrial hygiene assessments, and atmospheric research applications where total particulate loading data is required.

The collected TSP samples can be analyzed for lead content using EPA-approved methods, as measurement of airborne Pb continues to be performed by Hi-Vol TSP samplers in accordance with 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix B. This configuration provides the reliable, high-volume collection capability needed for comprehensive ambient air monitoring with straightforward operation and data management.
