Chapter 1 Introduction The Model 5030i Synchronized Hybrid Ambient Real-time Particulate (SHARP) Monitor is a hybrid nephelometric/radiometric particulate mass monitor capable of providing precise, real-time measurements with a superior detection limit. The SHARP Monitor measures the mass concentration of ambient PM10, PM2.5, and PM1.0 aerosol in real-time.
Introduction Principle of Operation ● Diaphragm Vacuum Pump ● External Ambient T/RH Sensor Assembly ● Internal Data Recording Unit and External Communication Ports ● Optional 6-Foot Sample Extension Tubes ● Optional Tripod Support ● Optional Roof Flange Kit The Model 5030i combines proven technology, easy to use menu-driven firmware, and advanced diagnostics to offer unsurpassed flexibility and reliability.
Introduction Principle of Operation For details of the analyzer’s principle of operation and product specifications, see the following topics: ● “Principle of Operation” on page 1-3 ● “Specifications” on page 1-8 Thermo Fisher Scientific is pleased to supply this continuous ambient particulate monitor. We are committed to the manufacture of instruments exhibiting high standards of quality, performance, and workmanship.
Introduction Principle of Operation The SHARP optical assembly senses the light scattered by the aerosol passing through an 880 nm illumination beam. The nephelometry response is linear with aerosol concentration; independent of sample flow rate; and a running one-minute average and dynamic average are continuously calculated. A relative humidity (RH) measurement is located at the sample filter-tape assuring a representative measurement of the aerosol conditioning prior to real-time mass determination.
Introduction Principle of Operation HEPA FILTER β SOURCE Figure 1–2.
Introduction Principle of Operation A clean filter spot is introduced by an automatic filter change to the combined sampling and detection chamber at least every 24 hours, usually centered at midnight. However, the official filter tape change frequency for TUV and U.S. EPA testing is for both PM2.5 and PM10 is every 8 hours.
Introduction Principle of Operation events, a rear-panel mounted zeroing solenoid is activated and HEPAfiltered air is delivered to the nehpelometer, whereby each range is zeroed. The results of the zeroing are available via display and C-Link read commands. At the location where the nephelometer attaches to the 5030i instrument case, a radial insulated tube joins the sampling tube to the collection chamber.
Introduction Specifications The beta measurement chamber houses an RTD temperature sensor. The T-sensor directly measures the temperature of the incoming sample stream for a continuous air mass compensation, and the flow system. The flow and ambient sensor measurements are combined within a firmware algorithm to maintain an accurate measurement and control of volumetric flow at the inlet and through the differential orifice.

Chapter 2 Installation The following installation procedures for the Model 5030i describes packaging, lifting the instrument, unpacking the instrument, setup and installation, including the sample tube and pump, and attaching the analog and/or digital outputs to a recording device. The installation should always be followed by instrument calibration as described in the “Calibration” chapter of this manual.
Installation Lifting The inner box that the instrument resides in is an ISTA 1A-certified packaging and is appropriate for transporting the instrument on local paved roads to the monitoring site. Precautions should be taken to secure this package from shifting during local transport. Using the ISTA-2A packaging is strongly recommended for transporting the instrument over poor roads or on highways.
Installation Acceptance Testing and Startup Procedures Remove Packing (2 pieces) Units without Optional I/O Board Remove Packing (2 pieces) Units with Optional I/O Board Figure 2–1. Remove the Packing Material 4. Check for possible damage during shipment. 5. Check that all connectors and circuit boards are firmly attached. 6. Re-install the cover. 7. Remove any protective plastic material from the case exterior. 8. Remove the external pump from its shipping container and place next to the instrument.
Installation Acceptance Testing and Startup Procedures program. Furthermore, it is an opportunity to assure that the monitor is operating according to the manufacturer specifications. After acceptance testing, a completed monitoring installation will require final volumetric flow rate verification. Acceptance Test Prior to installing the Model 5030i, you should perform the acceptance testing procedures.
Installation Acceptance Testing and Startup Procedures Note If the Model 5030i turns ON at this point, set the power switch to the OFF position and then proceed. ▲ 3. Connect the pump intake to the vacuum port mounted on the rear panel of the instrument using the 3/8-inch vacuum tubing assembly with the plastic T-fitting. Connect the pump exhaust tube to Port #2 on the 3-way solenoid on the rear panel. 4.
Installation Acceptance Testing and Startup Procedures ● Press to return to the Diagnostics menu, and choose Pressure/Vacuum. PRESSURE/VACUUM: BAROMETRIC 760.1 mmHg VACUUM 60.5 mmHg FLOW 21.5 mmHg RANGE AVG DIAGS ALARM The Pressure/Vacuum screen (read only) displays the barometric, vacuum, and flow pressure readings in mmHg. The pressure is measured by a pressure transducer. The vacuum is the amount of vacuum under the filter tape. The flow pressure is the pressure differential across the orifice.
Installation Acceptance Testing and Startup Procedures Ta Figure 2–2. Model 5030i Sampling Room Air Under Stable Conditions One-Point Temperature Verification Record the temperature sensor readings from the Model 5030i and compare to your NIST-traceable thermometer. Each of these measurements should be within ±2 °C tolerance of your NIST-traceable thermometer. Within this tolerance, the temperature sensors have passed the acceptance test.
Installation Acceptance Testing and Startup Procedures If the RH sensors are slightly out of tolerance, ±5% RH, the acceptance test should be classified as marginal. If the sensor performance is outside this range, please perform a RH-sensor calibration. For more information about the RH sensor calibration, see the “Calibration” chapter.
Installation Acceptance Testing and Startup Procedures Attach the small sample tube adapter to the Model 5030i inlet. Depending upon your NIST-traceable volumetric flow transfer standard (FTS), you may either attach your FTS now or add the flow audit adapter to accommodate any flexible tubing that your FTS may require. Allow 60 seconds to stabilize the flow after connecting.
Installation Setup nephelometer zero should be conducted. After re-zeroing the nephelometer, repeat the zero check steps above. Setup Inlet System Setting up this monitor includes siting the monitor per local government agency requirements, creating a waterproof inlet system installation with vertical support, connecting the inlet system to the instrument through the dynamic heater system, connecting vacuum lines, establishing datalogging setting, and making the power connections.
Installation Setup Figure 2–4. Model 5030i Top View—inches [millimeters] Heater Once the x-y coordinates of the instrument and roof flange system are established and a waterproof flange system has been installed, perform a dry run by attaching the heated sample tube on top of the 5030i base. If the heated tube protrudes through the roof flange, either the instrument should be lowered or an elongated PVC sleeve and cap system should cover the heater while maintaining a waterproof seal.

Chapter 4 Calibration The Model 5030i is an instrument that can make accurate mass concentration measurements of PM10, PM2.5 and PM1.0. However, with all electronic instruments, the accuracy of the measurements depends on proper calibration. In general terms, calibration, also called standardization, is the process that establishes the relationship between sensor output signals and the parameter the operator is attempting to measure.
Calibration Pre-Calibration nearest 0.1 °C. This thermometer should be referenced to within an accuracy of ±0.5 °C to NIST-traceable precision thermometers. Multiple thermometers may be used to cover the temperature range as long as each thermometer meets the accuracy and readability specifications described above.
Calibration Calibration Procedure RH/Temperature Calibration All screens that appear in this chapter have been referenced in the previous chapter. Ambient Temperature Using a NIST-traceable thermometer as a reference collocated next to the ambient RH/temperature sensor assembly, measure and compare three individual readings between both the reference and the 5030i response.
Calibration Calibration Procedure Flow Temperature Assuming the instrument cover has been removed, the heater has been turned off and removed from the instrument and the instrument has been sampling room temperature air for 1-hour, this calibration can now proceed. Using a NIST-traceable thermometer as a reference collocated next to the small sample tube inlet on top of the instrument, measure and compare three individual readings between both the reference and the 5030i response.
