Description
The Pegasor PPC diesel exhaust particulate monitor is an amazing new generation instrument capable of being used for many industry applications. It’s ideal for diesel engine exhaust measurements and allows compliance with various global standards, it may be used for stack particulate analysis, background ultra-fine ambient air measurements and many other applications. Developed in Finland, this latest generation unit uses ExtDC technology to eliminate soot clogging. The straight-through-design keeps the sensor clean for extended operating periods. It’s absolutely feature packed, with the latest communications options, Bluetooth wireless connectivity and much more.
The Pegasor PPC covers a wide particle size range, requires no consumables (unlike many similar systems), requires no flammable and costly operating liquids, requires no dilution, is extremely low maintenance and requires calibration typically every 2 years versus every 12 months or sooner with many similar instruments. And most importantly, this technology is fully portable and affordable for the average customer to purchase.
