Aerocet 531 Handheld Particle Mass Profiler & Counter Overview The Met One Particle Mass Profiler & Monitor allows tailored mass conversion by taking particle counts from eight size ranges and converting them to mass using a proprietary algorithm for typical-density aerosols. Accomodations for special particulates with varying densities are allowed through user-programmable "k factors."
Similar to the GT-521 model, the GT-531 is a Two Channel Particle Counter allowing 0.5 and 5.0 microns measurements while allowing display of the five mass ranges (PM1, PM2.5, PM7, PM10 and TSP).
The Aerocet 531 also allows storage of up to 4,000 records for printer, Excel or network output.
Lastly, the Aerocet 531 Particle Mass Profiler & Counter is great for a number of applications including outdoor air quality.Aerocet 531 Handheld Particle Mass Profiler & Counter Specifications
