Ambient Particulate Profiler Overview Dust Particle Monitor
The Model 212 Ambient Particulate Profiler, also known as the Aerocet 212, is a remarkably flexible dust particle monitor that features eight real-time channels and depending on the model 212-1 or 212-2, a range of particle sizing from .3 to 10 microns. Any particles above 10 microns are counted as 10 microns. The 212-1 model dust particle monitor also has an extended life Laser Diode that can provide 30,000 hours of life.Ambient Particulate Profiler Specifications

Ambient Particulate Profiler Design The Aerocet 212 dust particle monitor uses a laser-diode based optical sensor to detect, size and count particles. This information is then output as particles per size range. The two models available, 212-1 and 212-2, have measuring ranges starting from 0.3 microns to 10 microns, depending on the model.Ambient Particulate Profiler Features
