Designations
The Met One Instruments Model BAM-1020 was the first
instrument to obtain U.S. EPA Federal Equivalent Method (FEM)
designation for continuous PM2.5 monitoring, in addition to its
longstanding EPA designation for PM10 monitoring. The BAM-1020
has also obtained the corresponding PM2.5 and PM10 certifications
in the European Union. Two BAM-1020 units can also be operated
together as an EPA designated PM10-2.5 coarse method. Met One
Instruments supplies complete sampling accessory kits for
compliance with each designation.
Principle
The BAM-1020 automatically measures and records airborne
particulate concentration levels (in milligrams or micrograms
per cubic meter) using the industry-proven principle of beta
ray attenuation.Thousands of BAM-1020 units are currently
deployed worldwide, making the unit one of the most
successful air monitoring platforms in the world.
