Metrology & Calibration

The calibration of instruments measuring suspended particle mass presents some difficult challenges. Unlike gas measurements, where traceable mixtures of calibration gases can be purchased, calibration of particle measurement instruments requires the generation of an aerosol in real-time, and its simultanous measurement with the instrument to be calibrated, and a reference system.

Cambustion's CPMA Electrometer Reference Mass Standard provides the required reference system, allowing a wide variety of mass measuring aerosol instruments to be traceably calibrated.

Cambustion's Aerodynamic Aerosol Classifier classifies particles according to aerodynamic diameter, and is an ideal source of calibration particles for optical counting instruments.
