Fluid-Dynamic System Characteristics
The MiniCapt Remote Microbial Air Sampler uses a rotary blower that is able to sample
a constant flow of 25 L/min, 50 L/min or 100L/min and is controlled by a mass flow
controller.
The BioCapt
®
Impactor sampling head is installed on the inlet of the MiniCapt, whose
output is passed through the mass-flow measurement sensor before exiting through
the exhaust HEPA filter.
In order to ensure sampling quality, the system monitors flow loss.
