Inlet Conversion
The 2000
i
Sampler can be configured with a variety of inlet systems. This
section describes the components of the PM
2.5
VSCC inlet and WINS inlet
Sampler configurations, the PM
10
Sampler configuration, and the
procedures for converting the Sampler from a PM
2.5
to a PM
10
Sampler or
from a PM
10
to a PM
2.5
Sampler. Because the Partisol 2000
i
-D comes
equipped with a PM
10
inlet and virtual impactor for PM
2.5
and PM
coarse
sampling, this section does not apply to the Partisol 2000
i
-D.
