Instrument

FMPS
Fast Mobility Particle Sizer

The Fast Mobility Particle Sizer (FMPS) spectrometer can measure particle size distributions in the 5.6 to 560 nm range with 32 channels of resolution. By using multiple, low noise electrometers, it can generate a distribution with a frequency as high as every second; making the FMPS a valuable instrument in situations where the aerosol content is rapidly changing. The FMPS designed by TSI Incorporated was designed to be easily transportable and can be configured to collect data continuously for up to 12 hours.
