Starting the measurement
Before starting the measurement the DustMon RD 100 conducts a
“Zero measurement”. This
“Zero measurement/AutoZero” is always performed before every measurement.
The duration when switching the system on for the first time is approx. 30 seconds, and
thereafter a
pprox. 5 seconds before every measurement. “AutoZero” is shown on the on-board
display of the DustMon RD 100. Once the zero measurement has been completed, the flap
opens and closes audibly. The sample falls into the collecting box and the dust measurement
begins. When the measurement begins the values are plotted and shown on the monitor in real
time. After 30 seconds (basic setting) the measurement stops (beep). The result is displayed
as a graph
– the values are set out beneath the graph.

NOTICE
Before starting the next measurement ensure you have thoroughly removed any
sample material from the previous measurement from the sample collection receptacle! In the
case of very dusty products it is worth vacuum cleaning the box quickly after emptying it.
