About Respirable Dust Sampler

A respirable dust sampler isa tool used to measure airborne particles small enough to be inhaled deep into the lungs, typically less than 10 micrometers in diameter. It works by drawing in air, using a cyclone to separate large, non-respirable particles (which are collected separately), and then capturing the fine, respirable dust on a filter paper. The amount of dust is determined by measuring the weight difference of the filter paper before and after sampling.

How it works

Air intake:The device pulls ambient air into the system.
Coarse particle separation:A cyclone or impactor assembly separates larger particles (greater than 10 microns) using centrifugal force. These are collected in a separate bottle or container.
Fine particle collection:The remaining air, now containing only respirable particles (less than 10 microns), passes through a fine filter paper. The respirable dust is retained on the filter.
Weight analysis:The filter paper is weighed before and after the sampling period. The difference in weight indicates the concentration of respirable dust in the air.

Key features

Cyclone separator:A key component that separates particles based on size.
Filter paper:A specialized filter, often glass microfibre, collects the respirable particles.
Blower/Motor:A high-flow blower or a brushless, noiseless motor draws air through the system.
Programmable timer:Many samplers have a timer to automatically shut off after a set period, and some can record total operating time.
Automatic flow control:Some models feature electronic control to maintain a constant sampling rate.

Applications

Industrial monitoring:Used in environments like cement plants, mines, and construction sites.
Environmental monitoring:Measures air quality in urban and rural areas.
Occupational health:Monitors worker exposure to harmful dust in various workplaces.
Scientific research:Provides data for environmental assessments and scientific studies.
