The tetraCal® Ultra is a variation of the tetraCal®. It is named “ULTRA” because it meets the needs of so many more users Worldwide. There are few, if any modern environmental air samplers who’s calibration needs are not serviced by the Ultra.
All the features of the tetraCal® include:
- -300 to +55o temperature range
- 400 to 800 mm of Hg temperature range
- Larger flow rate range of 1 to 60 lpm.
Instruments covered by this broad range device are:
In the USA:
- PQ200 FRM
- PQ100 FRM
- Omni Personal Pump
- frmOmni Mini Sampler
- BGI 400
- Partisol FRM
- TEOM FEM
- BAM’s FEM
- All speciation samplers
- IMPROVE sampler
- All personal samplers from 1 lpm up
- All cascade impactors
Additional instruments in Europe and the world:
- All models of the Kleinfilter
- Tecora Exho PM
- All BAM’s any country, any model
The BGI tetraCal® is the first and only volumetric continuous flow calibration/audit device which gives a direct indication of volumetric flow rate, standard flow rate, barometric pressure (both mm/Hg & mb), and ambient temperature in one instrument. It was developed for use with all types of air samplers in the 1 to 60 Lpm range. Typical screens are shown below on the left.
It is the only field audit/calibration device which meets the same temperature criteria as the EPA designated samplers themselves. The temperature range is -30° to 55° C (EPA requires up to 40° C).
The heart of the tetraCal® is a venturi which is superior to an orifice in that it offers no sharp edges which can be damaged and a 90% recovery of the measurement pressure drop, important when calibrating some forms of speciation samplers or other critical orifice controlled devices. Because flow through the instrument is uninterupted, our graphic software provides a continuous output display of all functions.
