are of type 47 mm Pall 1235. There are 3 sets of backed-up filter holders for PM sampling and one
single filter holder for the room blanc measurement.
During the course of the test, the filter holders in the PM sampling lines may be heated respectively
cooled as appropriate, to control the filter temperature in the narrow band of 80-90 degrees F.
