MODEL 11-D

THE DUST DECODER

The all-purpose 11-D: Decode Your Dust

The model 11-D, in its compact and rugged design, combines all advantages of the previous portable GRIMM aerosol spectrometers with the improved optical detection, long-term battery operation, and facilitated handling.

This configuration places the 11-D in the leading position of the portable aerosol spectrometers for monitoring inhalable, thoracic and respirable dust, PM values, and particle number concentration.

The 11-D is the optimal solution for reliable, flexible and real-time measurements for aerosol research and indoor air quality, e. g. at workplaces, interior of vehicles, or for process analysis.

Overview

Enviro algorithm: TSP, PM10, PM4, PM2.5 PM1, PMcoarse | IAQ algorithm: pm10, pm2.5, pm1, inhalable, thoracic, respirable
real-time monitoring of particle number over size, particle surface over size, particle mass over size
additional information of particle number, particle surface, and dust mass distribution
31 equidistant size channels, PSL traceable
integrated 47 mm PTFE filter (GRIMM dual technology)
versatile data acquisition and communication interfaces (Bluetooth, USB, Ethernet, RS-232)
rinsing air for protecting laser and detector in optical cell
internal sensor for temperature (T) and relative humidity (RH) in optical cell
total inlet flow (1.2 L/min) analyzed in optical cell
self-test of all optical and pneumatic components for highest quality standards

Applications

aerosol science
PM_2.5 in indoor environments according to VDI 4300, part 11
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in buliding and vehicles process control in industry
workplace monitoring (inhalable, thoracic, respirable) according to EN 481
monitoring of Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) with high time resolution
dust pollution measurements
