How does a DustTrak work?
DustTrak DRX monitors are battery-operated, data-logging, light-scattering laser photometers that give you real-time aerosol mass readings. They use a sheath air system that isolates the aerosol in the optics chamber to keep the optics clean for improved reliability and low maintenance.
What is a Dust Trak?
The DustTrak™ II Aerosol Monitor 8532 is a handheld battery-operated, data-logging, single-channel, light-scattering laser photometer that gives you real-time aerosol mass readings.
What technique does the TSI DustTrak use to infer PM concentrations?
At TSI, the DUSTTRAK DRX Aerosol Monitor is calibrated against a reference photometer (Model 8587) that is gravimetrically calibrated to ISO 12103-1, A1 test dust (Arizona Test Dust).
What is an aerosol monitor?
Aerosol monitors, commonly referred to as dust monitors, particulate monitors, light scattering laser photometers, and nephlometers, are used to measure dust, smoke, mist, fume, condensates, and fog.
Which instrument is used to measure dust?
Photometer/Nephelometer. Photometers are used to measure larger dust particles with a light source and detector.
Which instrument is used to measure dust in the air?
PCE-MPC 10 is a portable handheld dust particle measuring device or particle counter used to monitor particulate matter (PM) concentrations in the air. Designed to aid in indoor air quality (IAQ) assessments, this particle counter also measures air temperature and relative humidity (RH).

- Air Sampling Pumps. Air sampling pumps are a trusted method for sampling dusts, fumes and mists to determine what particulates are present in a work environment.
- Optical Particle Counter (OPC)
- Condensation Particle Counter (CPC)
- Photometer/Nephelometer.
How is dust concentration measured?
At present, a variety of method for measuring dust concentration are studied at home and abroad, such as filter weighing method [2], ray method [3], piezoelectric crystal induction method, optical method [4], capacitance method [5], Charge sensing method [6] and ultrasonic method [7].

What is PM2 5 Made?
Dust, spores and pollen are some examples. PM2. 5 refers to particles that have diameter less than 2.5 micrometres (more than 100 times thinner than a human hair) and remain suspended for longer. These particles are formed as a result of burning fuel and chemical reactions that take place in the atmosphere.
How does the dusttrak DRX desktop monitor work?
The DUSTTRAK DRX desktop monitor is a battery operated, data-logging, light-scattering laser photometers that gives you real-time aerosol mass readings. It uses a sheath air system that isolates the aerosol in the optics chamber to keep the optics clean for improved reliability and low maintenance.
What does the dusttrak aerosol monitor 8533 do?
Leading the industry in real-time dust monitoring, the DustTrak™ DRX Aerosol Monitor 8533 can simultaneously measure both mass and size fraction. The DustTrak DRX desktop monitor is a multi-channel, battery-operated, data-logging, light-scattering laser photometer that gives you real-time aerosol mass readings and collects a gravimetric sample.
What can you do with a DRX aerosol monitor?
The DRX Aerosol Monitor can measure both mass and size fraction at the same time and provides a gravimetric sample. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications, industrial and occupational hygiene, baseline screening, remote monitoring and research studies.
What kind of air system does TSI dusttrak use?
It uses a sheath air system that isolates the aerosol in the optics chamber to keep the optics clean for improved reliability and low maintenance. It is suitable for clean office settings as well as harsh industrial workplaces, construction and environmental sites, and other outdoor applications.
