PAP 610 Aerosol Photometer

Process Aerosol Photometer PAP 610 for analysis of particle mass concentration in aerosols, best for oil mist characterisation during blow by testing

The Process Aerosol Photometer PAP 610 was developed from Topas for measurements of mass concentration in blow-by aerosols, where the concentration is determined in-situ.

Benefits

  • high time-resolution transmittance measurement with 2 wavelengths
  • temperature compensation of electronic assembly
  • simple cleaning of process windows
  • meatable measurement chamber (maximum temperature limited by a safety temperature limiter)
  • seals of FKM/FPM (oil- and temperature-resistant)
  • software PAPWin for calibration, configuration and data acquisition

Applications

  • transmittance measurement of oil aerosol for crank case ventilation in combustion engines
  • concentration monitoring of aerosol generators on oil mist test stands (SPT 140)
  • in-line monitoring of aerosol separators (oil mist separator testing)
  • monitoring of mean particle size of submicron aerosols

A highly concentrated aerosol passes through an extinction of light arrangement and causes a light decrease of the incident light in propagation direction.

It may be shown that is possible to draw conclusions about the concentration and mean particle size of the aerosol by measuring light decrease for two different wavelengths.

A direct indicator for the particle size is the extinction ratio.
