MIE pDR-1500 Instruction Manual, introduces the use of MIE pDR-1500 Active Personal Particulate Monitor (pDR-1500)
The MIE pDR-1500 is an active personal particulate monitor designed to measure concentration and scattering coefficients. The instrument features auto-ranging capabilities with a measurement range from 0.001 to 400 mg/m³ and offers various averaging times for concentration display and data logging. It supports multiple operating modes including real-time monitoring, delayed start, and STEL (Short-Term Exposure Limit) calculations.
The manual covers the complete lifecycle of the device, from unpacking and safety guidelines to detailed operation procedures, calibration processes, and maintenance tasks. It includes information on optional accessories, serial communications protocols, and troubleshooting error codes to assist users in ensuring accurate and safe operation.
| Scattering coefficient range | 1.5 x 10-6 to 0.6 m-1 |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 0.1 μg/m3 |
| Particle size range of maximum response | 0.1 to 10 μm |
| Flow rate range | 1.0 to 3.5 L/min |
| Aerodynamic particle cut-point range | 1.0 to 10 μm |
| Total number of data points that can be logged | > 450,000 |
The instrument should be returned to the factory once every year after being placed into service for routine check out, test, cleaning and calibration check.
Running the unit without a filter in place can result in serious damage to the internal components.
