Air Monitors has announced that the
new TEOM 1405-F and 1405-DF
ambient particulate monitors
have successfully completed a
series of laboratory and
field trials in the UK
and Germany.
The trials were part of a combined UKGermany PM Equivalence Program to achieve both MCERTS and German UBA certification for the measurement of PM2.5 and PM10 without the need for correction factors which are required for many other techniques.
Commenting, Air Monitors MD Jim Mills said: "This is great news for ambient air quality monitoring in the UK because the 1405-F provides the benefits of TEOM technology with the advantage of volatiles and nonvolatiles measurement by FDMS - data which is essential for an understanding of the nature and source of PM pollution, which in turn is important to inform control and improvement measures."
