Polydisperse Generators
This type of generator is typically capable of spraying aqueous solutions (e.g. salt), suspensions (e.g. PSL, nanoparticles), or oil or alike substances. They serve a variety of applications from laboratory research field tests of detectors, and filter testing.

Aerosol Generator 3079A
Easily portable and simple to operate, Aerosol Generator Model 3079A is a great tool to generate submicron aerosols for a variety of applications. Generating a high concentration of polydisperse aerosols, Model 3079A can be used with both water-based and alcohol-based solutions
Particle Generator 8026
The Particle Generator Model 8026 is a unique instrument that supplements the ambient particle count, allowing the PortaCount Pro+ Respirator Fit Tester to be operated in areas where the normal particle count is not sufficient.
Large Particle Aerosol Generator 8108
Designed primarily for filter testing, the Large Particle Aerosol Generator 8108 produces highly concentrated aerosol in a broad particle-size range, from 0.1 to 10 µm in diameter. It produces potassium chloride (KCl) or other aerosols, and it meets the requirements of the established ISO/TS 11155-1 and ASHRAE 52.2 test codes, as well as the proposed ISO 16890 Part 2 code. Designed for easy cleaning, it provides accurate and repeatable results.
Aerosol Generator 3076
A stable and simple way to create polydisperse aerosols, the Constant Output Atomizer Model 3076 is a reliable aerosol generator that is suitable for numerous applications. Model 3076 can generate aerosols from solutions prepared in water or in alcohols; solvents are typically removed from the sample stream by a Model 3062 desiccant drier.
Portable Test Aerosol Generator 3073
The Portable Test Aerosol Generator 3073 is a high-end test aerosol generator for low and high concentration polydisperse droplet aerosols. It generates submicron aerosols from oils, and from salt or PSL solutions. The innovative new flow control reduces power consumption and achieves highly stable low particle production rates, ideal for calibration of particle sizing instruments. Its compact and lightweight design coupled with the potential of user-supplied battery operation make it a perfect fit for use in field test applications.
Single Jet Atomizer 9302
The Single-Jet Atomizer 9302 is a cost-effective way to generate a polydisperse aerosol stream from a simple compressed air source. It is also our simplest atomizer with a built-in pressure regulator for controlling air from an external source.
Oil Droplet Generator 9307
The Laskin nozzle Oil Droplet Generator 9307 (single-jet) is designed to generate large amounts of seed particles.
Six-Jet Atomizer 9306
The Six-Jet Atomizer 9306 is used to generate a polydisperse aerosol in high concentrations for use as seed particles.
Seed Particle Generator 9307-6
The Seed Particle Generator 9307-6 is a general purpose atomizer that uses a Laskin nozzle to produce large quantities of oil or salt particles.
