BAM 1020 Filter Tape Roll
Specialized for Environmental Air β-Ray Automatic Method Sampling
Description
Met one BAM1020 filter tape roll for continuous air monitoring is compatible with air samplers from multiple manufacturers globally. Standard filter for beta-attenuation method applications.
Features & Benefits
• High Filtration Efficiency: 0.3-0.5μm standard particle retention efficiency >99.97%
• Wide Compatibility: Compatible with Thermo Scientific, Met One, Teledyne API, Horiba, ENVEA β-ray method PM2.5/PM10 monitoring instruments
• Excellent Chemical Stability: Tolerates high temperatures up to 180°C
• High-Purity Organic Adhesive: High mechanical strength, good toughness, resistant to breakage
• Excellent Weight Stability: Medium filtering speed, resistant to clogging
• Special Hydrophobic Treatment: Glass fiber treatment reduces water vapor interference in air sampling
• Non-Specific Adsorption: Minimizes sample contamination
Key Specifications
Dimensions: 30mm width x 30m length
Material: Continuous glass fiber construction
Operating duration: 90 day supply for standard BAM operation
Compatible with various BAM models including BAM-1020, E-BAM, and similar instruments
Compatibility
This filter tape is compatible with EPA Federal Equivalent Method (FEM) designated BAM instruments for continuous PM2.5 and PM10 monitoring. Standard BAM systems operate with 16.67 liters/minute actual flow and utilize continuous glass fiber filter tape for 70+ day operation per roll.
Compatible BAM instrument applications include:
EPA PM2.5 and PM10 continuous monitoring systems
Emergency response situations and rapid deployment monitoring
Permanent installations on rooftops, near roads, and at industrial sites
Perimeter monitoring and remote monitoring applications
Maintenance Notes
Filter tape changes are part of routine periodic maintenance for BAM systems. The 90-day supply duration reduces maintenance frequency compared to shorter-duration tapes. Proper tape installation following manufacturer procedures ensures continuous, uninterrupted particulate monitoring operation. Once initialized with fresh tape, BAM instruments operate continuously except during calibration verification periods.
Applications
This filter tape enables hourly PM2.5 concentration reporting and supports BAM instruments that measure particulate mass concentration in ambient air using beta ray attenuation principles. The glass fiber construction provides accuracy and precision consistent with EPA requirements for Class III PM2.5 and PM10 measurement, delivering real-time results without correction factors regardless of season or geographic location.
