Aurora Nephelometer
The Aurora Nephelometer delivers increased accuracy in studying particulates and their source of origin.
Overview Brochure
The effects of air pollution on human health and lifestyle are of a major concern today. There are many parameters contributing to air pollution, of which airborne particulates are a major contributor.
Nephelometers give indications of air quality by measuring the light scattering of particles in the air. This translates to visibility measurements and information for global warming studies.
The “new generation” of Aurora nephelometer is available in four models:
Aurora 1000 Nephelometer |
 |
| Aurora 2000 Nephelometer (PM2.5 correlation) |
|
| Aurora 3000 Nephelometer (3 wavelengths with backscatter) |
|
| Aurora 4000 Nephelometer (polar nephelometer) |
The wavelengths are characterized as follows: |
|||
| Blue | : | 450nm | Fine & ultra fine particulates (wood fires, automobiles) |
| Green | : | 525nm | Visibility (smog, fog and haze) |
| Red | : | 635nm | Large particulates (pollen, sea salt etc) |
