The Two Stage Viable Andersen Cascade Impactor (ACI) is an in situ impactor for aerosol sampling. It is used when the size distribution is not required and only the total particle counts are needed for analysis. The sampled air flows through the instrument, and the aerosol particles are collected on the corresponding plates within the two sampling stages. Larger particles (> 8 μm) are collected in the first stage, while smaller particles (0.8-8 μm) are collected in the second stage. It has an exact flow rate of 28.3 liters per minute.
