Application
Detection Monitor
Measure PM-10, PM-2.5 or PM-1 mass concentrations with the Thermo Scientific 5014i Beta Continuous Ambient Particulate Monitor. The 5014i distinguishes itself from other beta measurement methods by utilizing a continuous (non-step wise) mass measurement with a proven industry standard which provides for long-term unattended operation. To accurately address potential water bias and volatile loss, the Dynamic Heating System allows the user to hold the sample temperature at a fixed value or below a relative humidity threshold.
Reliable and Accurate Ambient Particulate MonitoringThe 5014i Beta Monitor provides high-precision, real-time measurement of particulate matter in ambient air, specifically targeting PM10 and PM2.5 fractions. Its advanced beta attenuation technology, automatic self-tests, and user-friendly touchscreen interface ensure consistently accurate results, even in challenging field conditions.
Flexible Data Management and ConnectivityThis monitor features a flexible internal memory capable of storing up to six months of data, along with connectivity options like Ethernet, RS232, and USB. The inclusion of optional external printer support and a large LCD display allows for convenient data retrieval and field operations, supporting efficient environmental monitoring processes.
Compliant, Durable, and User-Centric DesignDesigned with full adherence to U.S. EPA regulations, the 5014i is built with a corrosion-resistant aluminum chassis for durability. User-configurable audible and visible alarms, a wide operating temperature range, and automated system diagnostics make it a reliable choice for professionals who need rugged, easy-to-operate air monitoring equipment.
FAQ's of Thermo Scientific 5014i Beta Continuous Ambient Particulate Monitor:
Q: How does the Thermo Scientific 5014i Beta Monitor measure particulate matter in ambient air?
A: The 5014i uses beta attenuation technology to measure the mass concentration of particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5) in real time. An internal sampling pump collects particles on a filter tape, and a beta radiation source quantifies the collected mass by measuring the attenuation of beta particles, enabling precise and automated monitoring.
Q: What are the data storage and connectivity options for this particulate monitor?
A: The instrument offers internal memory that can store up to 6 months of measurement data. For connectivity, it supports Ethernet, RS232, and USB interfaces, and provides optional external printer support, ensuring flexible options for data management and transfer.
Q: When and where can the 5014i Beta Monitor be installed for continuous air quality assessment?
A: The 5014i is suitable for deployment in a variety of environments, including urban, industrial, and roadside locations. It operates reliably in temperatures from 0C to 40C and humidity ranges from 0% to 90% RH (non-condensing), making it ideal for continuous air quality monitoring under diverse conditions.
Q: What compliance standards does this beta continuous ambient particulate monitor meet?
A: This monitor is fully compliant with U.S. EPA 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix J and M, ensuring it meets international regulatory standards for ambient air quality measurement.
Q: How user-friendly is the 5014i Beta Monitor's operation and interface?
A: The device features a modern iSeries user interface with an intuitive touchscreen LCD display. It also includes user-configurable audible and visible alarms, automatic self-tests, and error diagnostics, simplifying both operation and maintenance.
Q: What are the primary benefits of using the Thermo Scientific 5014i for particulate monitoring?
A: Key benefits include high measurement accuracy, automated sampling and data logging, regulatory compliance, robust construction with a corrosion-resistant aluminum chassis, and comprehensive connectivity options, enabling dependable and efficient long-term air monitoring.
