Source apportionment
The BC 1054 Multi-spectrum Black Carbon Analyzer continuously measures the transmittance of light across filter media onto which particulate matter is accumulating and in real-time calculates the black-carbon ‘BC’ concentrations at 10 different wavelengths ranging from the near-UV to the near-IR. By employing the same widely accepted calibration constants and principles of operation as those used in the Magee Aethalometer, the BC-1054 produces nearly identical results, but at a fraction of the cost.
The BC 1054 employs 10 wavelengths ranging from the near-UV to the near-IR and can be employed in
climatological studies, air quality surveillance, pollution trending, and source apportionment.​
FEATURES
-
Tape-Saving mode for economical collection of data in high BC regions
-
Optional cloud-based modem and data service permits collected data to be uploaded and stored on the Web
-
Data access in near real-time remotely without the need for an external data logger
-
The simple sensor design requires no flow splitting, employs a single mass flow controller and is well matched for use with the filter media
-
Flow checks, audits and trouble-shooting are simple to perform
-
Actual flows are measured
-
Concentrations are calculated under actual flow conditions but may be
displayed in either actual or standard conditions
