INTRODUCTION
The SKC DPS System is a compact, portable, ba ery-operated, and cost-eff ective
particulate sampling system that ensures the ability to monitor particulate ma er
(PM) in indoor and outdoor environments and in urban, industrial, or rural se ings.
The system features the fully programmable constant fl ow Leland Legacy
®
Sample
Pump, the IMPACT Sampler, and other equipment needed for eff ective ambient
PM10 or PM2.5 sampling. All components are packaged in an easily carried heavy-
duty Pelican
®
case from which the system operates.
The heart of the DPS System is the patented* IMPACT Sampler. This inertial impactor
is designed to remove particles larger than a specifi c cut-point (2.5 μm or 10 μm) by
capturing them on a disposable oiled impaction disc that reduces particle bounce.
Particles smaller than the cut-point are collected on a 47-mm fi lter. The IMPACT
Sampler mounts easily and makes media changes fast and simple with its convenient
removable fi lter casse e and opener.
* U.S. Patent No. 7,334,453
