Aerosol Diluters

When using a particle counter for filter integrity testing, filters and filter systems are typically challenged with an excess of six million particles per cubic foot of air (2.1×10^per cubic meter). Many particle counters can begin to experience significant coincidence counting errors (counting two or more small particles as one larger particle) as particle concentrations approach 100,000 particles per cubic foot and greater. It is necessary to know the filter aerosol challenge concentration in order to properly quantify defects, thus a reliable aerosol dilution device is required. QVA Test Solutions offers a line of NIST traceable aerosol diluters to be used in conjunction with particle counters and other aerosol sampling systems.
