BC 1060 Portable Black Carbon Monitor measures and reports black carbon concentrations with user-selectable time resolution down to one-minute at both UV (370 nm) and IR (880 nm) illumination wavelengths

The combination of portability and dual-wavelength illumination permits rapid, easy deployment on a broad scale for source apportionment (fossil fuel vs. biomass combustion) determination, roadside monitoring, and emergency responder applications. The BC 1060 employs a standard tape measurement system using a 25-m long roll of glass-fiber tape. Operating at a continuous sampling rate of 2 LPM, up to 6 months of uninterrupted operation between filter tape replacement may be expected. The BC 1060 is self-contained within its own weatherproof enclosure containing its pump, making it ideal for quick deployment. It may be operated indoors or outdoors. For operation in highly polluted environments the BC 1060 is supplied with a flow dilution system which may extend the required frequency of tape replacement by up to a factor of five.

The BC 1060, all inclusive, weighs approximately 35 lb. (16 kg) and has a small footprint making it easy to transport. It may be operated from either household power or may be battery powered.
