NPM 3 Network Particulate Monitor

NPM 3 Network Particulate Monitor Description：

Datasheet User's Manual

THE MET ONE INSTRUMENTS, INC. NPM 3 IS A FORWARD LIGHT SCATTER LASER NEPHELOMETER PARTICULATE MONITOR WHICH AUTOMATICALLY MEASURES REAL-TIME AIRBORNE TSP, PM10, OR PM2.5 PARTICULATE CONCENTRATION LEVELS.

The NPM 3 features improved reliability and lower maintenance. Each unit uses a serial cable that allows the device to connect to a laptop, data logger, or CCS+ Comet Cloud Modem. The real-time data is accessible for display, logging, review, and reporting instantly or later time.

The monitor contains a 5-mW diode laser operating at 670 nm wavelength. A protective optical housing fully encapsulates the laser beam and optics system within the device.

Data from the NPM 3 can be managed using the supplied copy of Met One’s user-friendly, Windows-based, Comet™ communications terminal software. Comet allows the user to view real-time data and log data to a data file on a computer in .csv format.

The NPM 3 is calibrated using 0.6-micron latex microspheres. These provide an extremely consistent calibration but do not generally match the characteristics of all ambient particulate. A K Factor (multiplier) must be established using a collocated trusted reference source (such as a BAM 1020) for good accuracy and correlation. The default factory K Factor is 1.0.

The K Factor is only valid at the same site and for the same particulate type. If the local particulate source changes, the K Factor may need to be adjusted.

The unit is supplied with a TSP head, Comet software, a mounting bracket, & a hose clamp.
