Accuracy and precision consistent with U.S.-EPA requirements for Class III PM2.5 and PM10 measurement. 

 The Met One Instruments, Inc. E-BAM is in a class of its own as a portable, real-time beta gauge, which is comparable to U.S.-EPA methods for PM2.5 and PM10 particulate measurements.

The E-BAM automates particulate measurement by continuously sampling and reporting concentration data. Data records are updated every minute. The E-BAM eliminates the involved process of filter collection and filter weighing of other more expensive, high maintenance instruments. With the adoption of beta attenuation for ambient monitoring the process has become simple, streamlined, and inexpensive

Features:
• Accuracy and precision consistent with U.S.-EPA requirements for Class III PM2.5 and PM10 measurement.
• Real-time, accurate results without correction factors, regardless of season or geographic location.
• True ambient sampling provides accurate measurement of semi-volatile nitrates and organic compounds.
• Lightweight, rugged construction is easily mounted on a tripod in minutes.
• All-weather construction allows for true ambient sampling.
• Operates on AC or DC power. Battery and Solar options available upon request.

Applications:
• Ambient Monitoring
• Dust Monitoring
• Emission Sampling
• Environmental Surveys
• Fence line Monitoring
