TSI 3070A Electrical Aerosol Detector
The Electrical Aerosol Detector (EAD) measures a key aerosol parameter believed to indicate the effective surface area of particles that can be deposited in the lung. This aerosol detector is a unique complement to our line of CPCs. Like a CPC, the EAD measures particle concentration as a function of time. But it also measures a parameter called aerosol diameter concentration, a property of ultrafine particles that is promising for health-effects research.
The EAD is a robust, low-cost, easy-to-use instrument that operates continuously and provides very fast measurements in the range from 10 to 1000 nm. It operates at a wide dynamic range, and it requires no working fluid or consumables. Plus, the EAD gives you unmatched reproducibility.
