The 3160 uses a bank of atomizers and the research grade TSI classifier to challenge a filter or filter media with known-size, monodisperse particles. Two new generation Condensation Particle Counters (CPCs) simultaneously count the upstream and downstream particles while the software calculates the penetration value.
Filters can be sequentially challenged with up to several different monodisperse particle sizes in the range from <15 to 800+ nm. The penetration value for each particle size is obtained.
At the end of a test, the model 3160 generates a curve of penetration vs. particle size and produces a summary of test results, including the MPPS.
