Personal Modular Impactor (PMI), PM Coarse, 3 L/min Overview

Personal Modular Impactor (PMI), single-stage impactor designed for highly efficient collection of PM Coarse (PM10-2.5) at 3 L/min, includes impactor and two filter cassettes with support screen; requires collection media and impaction substrate, which are purchased separately

The SKC Personal Modular Impactor (PMI) Samplers are highly efficient for personal PM10, PM2.5, or PM Coarse (10-2.5) sampling and closely follow the PM2.5 and PM10 criteria defined by U.S. EPA. PMI Samplers are lightweight and compact with a convenient removable filter cassette and disposable pre-oiled impaction discs (no cleaning or greasing). The PMI PM10 model is easily converted with an accessory ring to sample PM Coarse (10-2.5). Use PMI Samplers with any constant flow pump at 3 L/min. SKC recommends the AirChek XR5000 Sample Pump.

SKC Personal Modular Impactors
The patented (U.S. Patent No. 7,334,453) SKC Single-stage Personal Modular Impactors (PMIs) are designed for the highly efficient collection of PM10, PM2.5, or PM Coarse (10-2.5). The samplers are easy to use with their removable filter cassette and pre-oiled impaction disc. PMI media changes are as easy as removing the filter cassette and replacing it with one already loaded with a 37-mm final filter. The 25-mm pre-oiled impaction disc mounts directly on top of the filter cassette and reduces particle bounce for high collection efficiency. A 25-mm filter may be used as an alternative impaction substrate for gravimetric or chemical analysis of particles. The PMI Coarse model and the Coarse Ring accessory include a second filter cassette to allow collection of particles sized between 2.5 and 10 µm.
