Introduction
The MiniCapt Remote Microbial Air Sampler (see
) is a fixed instrument that,
when paired with the BioCapt
®
Impactor sampler head (see
efficient biological sample collection environments.
Airflow into the BioCapt Impactor sampling head is controlled by a mass flow
controller, thus ensuring an operating flow rate of 25 L/min, 50 L/min or 100 L/min.
This controller ensures all the fluid dynamic conditions are maintained throughout the
sample, and allows for tubing and altitude corrections.
MiniCapt Remote Microbial Air Samplers communicate by means of Modbus TCP with
FacilityPro, a software package that stores and displays data, and allows the user to
control the MiniCapt Remote Microbial Air Sampler.
