Advanced High Tech PM10 Samplers
Available Models : PEM–RDS 7, PEM–RDS 8, PEM–RDS 8NL, PEM–RDS 9
Polltech’s Advanced High Tech PM10 Samplers justifiably boast of a number of features which remain unmatched as yet by any other indigenous manufacturer. In fact, these features put the models in the international league of High Volume Air Samplers. Take a look at these features and also at a sample of the report and circular chart of the recorded flow.
Distinctive Features :
- Programmable start date and time and sampling duration
- Cyclic Mode Programming
- Real Time Clock (RTC)
- Settable Sampling Start Delay Time
- Automatic Electronic Flow Control through Closed Loop Feedback system
- Flow Control Accuracy: 2% of set value
- Automatic Stoppage of Sampling due to under voltage, over voltage, low flow & high Flow conditions
- Capability to store data pertaining to 10 samples in a non-volatile memory for subsequent retrieval and analysis
- Versatile data acquisition, storage, retrieval and reporting
- Communication port for Data transfer
- Size Selective Inlet Tested at IIT, Mumbai
