Description
The Catalytic Instruments silver particle generator is a precision calibration standard for calibrating condensation particle counters and related ultra-fine particle measurement devices. It’s modern design, latest generation features and industry leading performance makes it an excellent tool for particle researchers and ultra-fine / nano particle measurement professionals. The silver particle generator provides outstanding accuracy and stability with a quick warm up time. These devices are traditionally used by metrology institutes, laboratories, condensation particle counter users, SMPS system users and other research groups throughout the world.
Wouldn’t it be nice if every time you went to use your aerosol generator, you could be guaranteed of its output concentration and size distribution? For years, it has been a challenge to reliably produce very high concentrations of solid aerosol particles, used in the calibration of CPCs (ISO 27891:2015), PMP (VPR systems, PN-PEMS), filter penetration tests, mask testing, emissions studies, air quality studies, and as a reliable and quantified seed aerosol for complex experiments. This time is over now
