Parallel Particle Impactor, Disposable, Preloaded Thoracic - MCE Filter Overview
Parallel Particle Impactor (PPI), plastic, single-use disposable, four-stage, for thoracic sampling at 2 L/min. The PPI provides the closest match to the entire ACGIH/CEN/ISO thoracic curve compared to any other sampler available. Preloaded with four porous plastic disc impaction substrates, one 37 mm, 0.8-µm MCE collection filter, and one cellulose support, ea. OSHA ID 113 for sulfuric acid.
The Disposable PPI Advantage
- Convenient single-use sampler eliminates assembly, cleaning, and two-way shipping costs
- Small size and light weight provides worker comfort, even under helmets or other PPE
- Choice of flow rates for maximum flexibility in pump options, sample duration, and contaminant concentration
