The patented† personal-size Sioutas* Cascade Impactor separates and collects airborne particles in five size ranges: > 2.5 µm, 1.0 to 2.5 µm, 0.50 to 1.0 µm, 0.25 to 0.50 µm, and < 0.25 µm.
The patented† personal-size Sioutas* Cascade Impactor separates and collects airborne particles in five size ranges: > 2.5 µm, 1.0 to 2.5 µm, 0.50 to 1.0 µm, 0.25 to 0.50 µm, and < 0.25 µm. When used with PTFE (Teflon) collection filters, the Sioutas Impactor is highly efficient at collecting particles without the use of impaction grease or substrate coatings and at retaining unstable compounds for size-fractionated chemical analysis.
The Sioutas Impactor and SKC Leland Legacy Sample Pump operated at 9 l/min are powerful partners that ensure precise particle separation at the specified cut-points and sample collection on the filters at each stage. The Sioutas Impactor is simply clipped to a worker's collar or lapel for personal sampling or attached at a sampling site for area sampling.
