The FIDAS 200 is an EN 16450-approved fine dust measurement device for the simultaneous measurement of PM2.5 and PM10 meeting UK reference method ‘equivalency’ certification requirements.

Excellent for regulatory pollution control in monitoring networks. Ideal for ambient air monitoring campaigns, long-term studies, emission source attribution and emission dispersion studies.

• Used extensively in Local Authority and national monitoring networks including the AURN.
• MCERTS Certified: Continuous Ambient Air Monitoring System & MCERTS for UK Particulate Matter
• Type-approved and certified according to latest EN requirements (EN 15267)
• Continuous and simultaneous real-time measurement of multiple PM values
• Additional information on particle number concentration and particle size distribution
• Market leader for continuous and simultaneous monitoring of ambient PM2.5 and PM10 in European and neighbouring countries
• Designed for outdoor installation (with stainless steel weatherproof housing), whereby this does not require full air conditioning, but can only be operated with an auxiliary heater for indoor temperatures below 5°C.

How it works

The Fidas ® 200 fine dust monitor uses the recognised measuring technique of optical light scattering according to ISO 21501-1 on the single particle and is equipped with an LED light source of high light intensity, high light stability and long service life. The instrument’s calibration can be checked easily and quickly, and, if necessary, adjusted at any time, even when installed, using a monodisperse test aerosol.

The sampling system of the Fidas ® 200 operates with a volume flow of approx. 0.3m³/h.

It is equipped with a Sigma-2 sampling head according to VDI 2119, which enables representative sampling even in strong winds, as well as a drying section, which demonstrably prevents falsification of the measurement due to condensation effects at high humidity.

The Fidas ® 200 fine dust monitor offers a wide range of communications options.
