Six inhalable aerosol samplers were evaluated experimentally as area samplers using monodisperse solid particles with aerodynamic diameters ranging from 5 to 68 microm. Sampler performance and inside particle loss at two test wind speeds (0.55 and 1.1 m/sec) and three wind orientations (0, 90, and 180 degrees) were investigated. The six inhalable aerosol samplers tested were a RespiCon, an Institute of Occupational Medicine (IOM), a seven-hole, a conical inhalable sampler, a prototype button sampler, and a closed-face 37-mm cassette. The area sampling performance of the RespiCon sampler matched the inhalable convention fairly well. The sampling performances of the other five samplers depended on wind speed, wind direction, and particle size, and they may not be appropriate for area sampling if the wind speeds are greater than 0.5 m/sec.
使用空气动力学直径范围为5至68微米的单分散固体颗粒,对六个可吸入气溶胶采样器作为区域采样器进行了实验评估。研究了在两种测试风速(0.55和1.1米/秒)和三种风向(0、90和180度)下采样器的性能和内部颗粒损失。测试的六个可吸入气溶胶采样器分别是RespiCon、职业医学研究所(IOM)采样器、七孔采样器、锥形可吸入采样器、原型纽扣采样器和封闭面37毫米盒式采样器。RespiCon采样器的区域采样性能与可吸入标准相当匹配。其他五个采样器的采样性能取决于风速、风向和颗粒大小,如果风速大于0.5米/秒,它们可能不适合用于区域采样。
