Flow Adapter
(P/N FA-104)
2.0 LPM
Inhalable and Respirable
Note: Before Operating Check Battery Status. Charging time is 16 hours. Operating time
is 7 hours for Respirable and 8hrs for Inhalable sampling without a gravimetric filter.
STEP 1
Check Battery Level
Ensure battery is fully charged:
Turn monitor on. Press “Enter”. Select “Special Functions”
→
“System Options” “Extended Options”
→
“Battery Status.” The battery status reads greater
than 6.5 Volts when fully charged.

For Inhalable Air Sampling
Ensure switch position is in the upward
setting, labeled “Inhalable.” If using
gravimetric filter insert into cassette.
Flow can be calibrated by inserting the
Flow adapter (P/N FA-104) into the IOM
inlet. Select “Run” from the main menu
to activate air sampling pump. In the
“Inhalable Flow Adjust” position, flow
can be adjusted using the trim stick.

B. For Respirable Air Sampling
Ensure the manual switch is positioned to the downward setting labeled “Respirable.” If using
gravimetric filter insert into cassette. Flow can be calibrated by using a calibration jar. Remove
the GS3 Cyclone Adapter (P/N GSA-204) from the GS3 Cyclone. Attach the GS3 Cyclone to the
underside of the calibration jar lid. Screw lid tightly. Insert Flow Adapter (p/n FA-104) into the
IOM Inlet. Attached one tube from the Calibration jar to the Flow Adapter (P/N FA-104). Attach
the other tube to the flow meter. Select “Run” from the main menu to activate air sampling
pump. Using the trim stick, adjust the flow on the “Respirable Flow Adjust” located to the left of
the switch. Adjust to
2.75 LPM.
STEP 3
Perform Clean Air Zero
Note: Clean Air Zero needs to be preformed every time the user switches between
Respirable and Inhalable size fractions.
Insert Flow Adapter (p/n FA-104) into IOM Inlet. Attach tubing from calibration jar to FA-104.
Attach another tube to a flow meter.

Position the switch to the desired
size fraction. Remove GS Cyclone,
if attached. Insert the zeroing filter
(p/n ZA-202A) into the IOM Inlet.
Select Respirable or Inhalable. Select
“Run” from the main menu to activate
air sampling pump. Run monitor
for 5 minutes to stabilize baseline.
Select “Enter” to stop sampling.
Using arrows, select “Auto Zero.”
When complete, remove the Zeroing
filter (p/n ZA-202A). To begin an air
sampling session, select “Run” from
Main Menu. Select “Overwrite” if you
do not want to save previous data.
Insert the
rubber stopper
of the zeroing
filter into the
IOM adapter.
