5.2 GRIMM Windows 1178 software incl. Installation of the software:
The fully revised 1178 software was introduced in 2010 and is compatible with the 32 and 64-bit operat-
ing systems starting with Windows XP.
Data are shown numerically or graphically in the following formats:
Particle number concentration in all channels are particles per litre
Three mass fractions (inhalable, thoracic and respirable) in the unit
µg/m³. The values are calculated with a uniform density factor for all
size channels and specific weight factors (not public) based on the
number distribution, incorporating the European EN 481 standard.
Environmental protec-
tion:
Three mass fractions (PM10, PM2.5 and PM1) in the unit µg/m³. The
values are calculated with a uniform density factor for all size chan-
nels and specific weight factors (not public) based on the measured
number distribution, incorporating relevant standards. The results
were not validated for model 11-R in open-air tests according to offi-
cial PM equivalence tests, e.g. US EPA or EN 12341 for PM10.
Depending on type, e.g. temperature, relative humidity, flow rate.
Pump flow, battery charge level, operating errors etc.
Various statistical indicators for the measurements as well as mean
values and box plots for PM values and mass fractions according to
occupational safety
The GRIMM 1178 software supports online statistical data analysis, the analysis of the device functions
and a complete system diagnosis.
The software is provided to you with the order on the supplied USB stick. The installation instructions
refer to installation from the USB stick.
