Outdoor Station for Continuous Particulate Monitoring
Skypost PM FX has a sequential substitution system of the filtering membrane with 16 membranes capacity. With its electronic flow rate controller, the Skypost PM FX allows continuous, unattended operations as well as easy replacement of the exposed filters without interrupting the sampling.
Skypost PM FX has up to 50 l/min flow rate capacity and is suitable for dust sampling with LVS PM10 2.3 m3/h sampling head and LVS PM2.5 2.3 m3/h sampling head, according to EN12341:2014 norm.
The modularity of the sampling head allows use of the US EPA 40, CFR Part 50 sampling head as well.
The completely straight suction tube with its round shape and the separation of the storage filter zone from internal and radiant sources of heat, allows collection of and preserves the integrity of the pollutants.
A ventilation and differential thermo-regulated heating system allows the instrument to operate even in extreme ambient conditions.
Construction
Skypost PM FX is a standalone sampler built into a weatherproof cabinet for the most extreme outdoor conditions.
A test made by an ISO 17025 certified lab showed its ability to work with external temperature form -20°C to 50°C.
Data management
Skypost PM FX has a new data management system with following features:
- Continuous sampling data storage
- Min., max and average values of all the measured data
- Alarm management
- Data download via USB and Ethernet cable
- Data export into Excel files.
Filter X Technology
The Filter X cooling system for sampled filters reservoir of Skypost is designed according to EN12341:2014 requirements.
Filter X technology has smart temperature control that gives optimal protection of sampled filters – avoiding exposure to heat and condensates.
Its ability to maintain filters below 23°C with external temperature up to 50°C has been tested by an independent ISO17025 certified lab
