The SKC Aluminum Respirable Dust Cyclone is a lightweight respirable dust sampler that is used with a 25 or 37 mm filter loaded into a three-piece filter cassette.

The cyclone separates the dust particles according to size. The respirable dust particles collect on a filter for analysis while larger dust particles fall into the grit pot and are discarded. The SKC Aluminum Cyclone gives sharp size selection between respirable dust fractions at 4 or 5 µm. The aluminum construction eliminates static charge build-up.

The SKC Aluminum Cyclone is available in two sizes: 25 mm for use with 25 mm three-piece cassettes and 37 mm for use with 37 mm three-piece cassettes. The filter material, pore size, and the support pad must be selected as specified by the respirable dust sampling method used.
