/ 175 Time min Burner Out VPR Out Dilution Bridge Out ON-SITE CHECKS FOR PARTICLE MEASUREMENT DEVICES AVL Particle Generator Particle number measurement is the new requirement for certification measurements according to Euro 5/6 and EURO VI. In addition to the legal requirements of an annual device calibration, on-site quality checks of critical components such as the dilution system and the particle number counter are highly recommended. Apart from particle number checks, there is also a demand for on-site verification of other particle measurement devices. Those requirements necessitate a particle generator with: • Adjustable dilution over a wide dilution range • Adjustable particle sizes FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE The AVL Particle Generator is a stand-alone device for generating a pre-conditioned combustion aerosol. Aerosol particles are first formed during combustion of propane and then pre-treated and diluted in an integrated Volatile Particle Remover system. The pre-treatment process stabilizes particle size and number concentration while ensuring reduction of volatile and semi-volatile particles. A further dilution stage with a dilution bridge can decrease the concentration to very low levels. The three dilution stages allow a wide range of applications that require different concentrations and size distributions.

The pre-adjusted operating points and the recommended applications are based on many years of AVL expertise in the field of particulate measurements. APPLICATIONS • On-site quality checks of particle counting devices – Particle Concentration Reduction Factor check – Particle Number Counter linearity check – Particle Number Counter cut-off check • Comparison measurement of Micro Soot Sensors and PM-PEMS devices BENEFITS AT A GLANCE • Generation of a highly stable combustion aerosol • Wide range of applications due to integrated dilution stages • Calibrated operating points for a convenient verification of particle measurement devices • Straightforward on-site quality checks of particle measurement devices • Utilization as stand-alone device • Integrated touch-screen for simplified operation
