Aerosol Particle Mass Analyzer MODEL APM-3600



Methodology
This new and innovative measurement method classifies single aerosol particles based on their mass to charge ratio.

APM-3600 utilizes two cylindrical electrodes rotating about a common axis at the same angular speed. Charged particles enter the annular gap rotating at the same speed as the electrodes. As a voltage is applied to the inner electrode, the particles experience directly opposing centrifugal and electrostatic forces. These forces are in balance for particles of a specific mass, allowing the particles to traverse through the APM.

APM-3600 classifies particles based on their intrinsic mass; the technique is not dependent on particle size, shape factor, orientation, or properties of the surrounding gas.
Applications
  • Mass distribution measurements
  • Particle density research
  • Monodisperse aerosol generation
Features
  • 0.01 to 100 Femto-gram aerosol particles can be classified.
  • Classification can be done in floating condition based on the balance between floating centrifugal power and electrostatic power.

Operating Principle of APM-3600     * Particle charger is not included in APM-3600
