Dust aerosol generator for stable dosing and calibration

When precision is non-negotiable, this equipment disperses and de-agglomerates dry particles for exact calibration and testing applications, even in challenging environments with varying humidity levels.

Disperses and De-agglomerates Dry Dust Particles

The Dust Aerosol Generator Model 3410 from TSI is engineered to deliver precise and consistent aerosol dispersion for research and testing applications. This versatile generator features interchangeable dispersing units, capable of handling various materials from ISO 12103 test dust to TiO2 powder. It operates using an ejector nozzle with a ceramic inlay to disperse and de-agglomerate particles effectively, ensuring reliable particle distribution even in humid environments. The Model 3410L employs a moving toothed belt for accurate powder metering, achieving mass concentrations between 0.5 and 160 g/m³. Designed for continuous operation, the reservoir can be refilled while in use, accommodating both manual and automated processes. Ideal for aerosol science, filter testing, and industrial quality assurance, it supports essential calibration and validation tasks with high accuracy.
