The HV-DIGITEL sampler is a High Volume Sampler (HVS) for autonomous and continuous measurements. 15 Quartz filters of 150 mm diameter are sampled in DHA with 48-hours resolution. The filter change is realized automatically. PM10 measurements are performed in accordance with EN12341. The air flow can be adjusted between 100 and 1000 l/min.
