AMS Instruments
The ARI Aerosol Mass Spectrometer is a research grade instrument capable of providing size and chemical mass loading information for non-refractory sub- micron aerosol particles into a single real-time measurement system.
Mini AMS
Mini AMS
Measure real-time, non-refractory, size-resolved particulate chemical composition and mass.
The AMS couples size-resolved particle sampling and mass spectrometric techniques into a single real-time measurement system. Over 200 instruments are in use in industrial, academic and government laboratories.
Advantages
- Compact vacuum system for applications where space is limited (i.e., mobile platforms)
- Similar size compared to TOF-ACSM but provides size resolution measurements
- Aerodynamic particle lens for efficient gas particle separation
- Linear universal detection of sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, chloride and organic aerosol species through two-step thermal vaporization (~600 C) and electron impact ionization process.
- Single particle detection mode via event trigger
- Mass spectrometric analysis (0-400m/z)
- Particle aerodynamic diameter determined from particle time-of-flight (velocity) measurements using a particle beam chopping technique
- Remote control ready
