Introduction
Overview This operating manual introduces you to the Lighthouse REMOTE
3104P, 5104P family of Airborne Particle Counters. Included in this
manual are instructions for inspecting, using and maintaining the
instrument.
Description The 3104P, 5104P instruments have up to six particle size channels
starting at 0.3 microns (3104P) and 0.5 microns (5104P) at a flow of
1.0 CFM.
Figure 2-1 REMOTE 5104P Airborne Particle Counter
The instrument uses the Elite™ laser diode light source and laser beam
shaping optics to illuminate a cross section of the air flow path with a
laser beam. As particles move along the flow path, they cross the laser
beam and scatter light. The light scattered is collected by an imaging
optical system onto a photodiode. The photodiode converts this light
into a voltage which is amplified.
Optional
Direct-mount
Isokinetic Probe
