SidePak™ AM520 Personal Aerosol Monitor

Product Details

The SidePak™ AM520 Personal Aerosol Monitor is a small, portable, battery-operated, data-logging, single channel, light-scattering laser photometer that provides real-time aerosol mass concentration and response concentration readings of respirable dust, respirable silica and diesel particulate matter (DPM, .08um) within a worker breathing zone. The new feature set allows for dual display and logging of respirable silica and diesel particulate matter. Aerosol concentration is displayed as total mass concentration and the response factor output which is based on the percent content of either respirable silica or DPM. Additional SidePak Monitor inlet conditioners add to the mass concentration capabilities  providing size fraction cut points for PM10, PM4 (Respirable), PM5 (China Respirable), PM2.5, PM1 and Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM, at 0.8 μm).

Features and benefits

• NOW with dual display and data logging of mass concentration and response concentration on one screen (i.e. for respirable silica, welding fume and DPM monitoring applications)
• NOW stores up to 10 custom calibration factors on the instrument for different applications
• Updates to TrakPro™ v5 Data Analysis Software include:
  • Custom calibration factor calculator to simplify calibration factor process
  • Continued ability to name custom calibration factors and upload them to the instrument
  • Enhanced alarm features to include response concentration alarm value
• Robust impactors for higher mass concentration range
• Audible and visual alarms
• 0.8 μm DPM impactor
• PM5 China respirable size fraction impactor
• High capacity battery
