Product Overview 1-7
Long DMA
The Model 3081A Long DMA provides a size range of 10 to 1000 nm. A
cross-sectional view of the Long DMA is shown in Figure 1-3. The mobility
analyzer consists of two cylindrical electrodes made of polished stainless
steel and insulated from each other by a Teflon
®
spacer at the top and an
acetyl-plastic (Black Delrin
®
) spacer at the bottom. The lower spacer allows
enough high-voltage leakage to prevent static charge build up near the
exit slit.
