In the face of global air pollution challenges, AVL is committed to driving innovative solutions. Understanding the emerging significance of ultrafine particle monitoring, we developed the instrument based on the condensation particle counting technology. We addressed these needs to empower environmental experts with an instrument that is easy to use and highly stable in operation performance and precision. The AVL UltraFine Particle Monitor is a solution tailored to tackle the microscopic yet significant world of ultrafine particles, offering environmental experts the tools they need to make a tangible difference.
Engineered for stability and continuous operation, the AVL UltraFine Particle Monitor™ functions as a continuous particle monitoring solution.
The Condensation Particle Counter (CPC) technology detects aerosol particles down to nanometer scale by enlarging them for optical detection. The aerosol is saturated with n-butanol vapor, and particles act as condensation nuclei as the vapor condenses onto them. The resulting droplets, now large enough to scatter light, are individually detected using a focused laser beam and photodetector system.
