C-12 Portable Black Carbon Monitor

EXPERIENCE HIGHLY GRANULAR BLACK CARBON MONITORING WITH UNMATCHED AFFORDABILITY Introducing the groundbreaking C-12, portable and weatherproof dual wavelength carbon monitor, which allows for highly granular measurement of black and brown carbon at an unbeatable total cost of ownership, making precise carbon tracking more accessible than ever before. The C-12 from Met One Instruments Powered by Acoem is a robust carbon monitoring device which uses software-based loading compensation, when it measures optical attenuation (via two wavelengths: 880 and 370 nm) through a filter, to report airborne Black Carbon (BC) and Brown Carbon (BrC) concentrations of the total suspended particulate matter (TSP) with sensitivity better than 70 ng/m3 at 1-minute time intervals. The C-12 Portable Carbon Monitor is self-contained, eliminating the need for expensive, space- and power-consuming environmental shelters, with multiple mounting options (tripod, pole mount, wall mount, etc.). A notable feature of the C-12 is its ability to make over 500 filter advances per roll of filter tape, allowing for unattended operation intervals of more than two months. Its modest sampling rate (1 LPM) allows it to be easily powered by a solar panel in most regions. In its standard configuration, the C-12 includes an AC power adapter.
