Abstract |
The newly designed air sampler for the ERAMS network meets all the desired design characteristics. Units have been in use at some ERAMS stations for more than two years and have operated satisfactorily. No samples have been lost due to inoperative samplers. Sampling air flow rates are adequate to collect the desired sample volume. Purchase cost, operating costs, and repair costs are greatly reduced compared to the previously used samplers. The small physical size and light weight result in a unit which is inexpensive and easy to ship and to get into the operating location. Operating life of the blower is adequate to minimize the inconvenience and cost associated with frequent replacement. Ease of operator use and low operating noise result in a unit that has been readily accepted by the station operators. |
