⁄8 to ¼ inch adapter on the Bypass Flow port fitting. Connect
the Bypass Flow port fitting to the Polydisperse Flow port
fitting with a tube.
6. Install the 0.0457 impactor nozzle.
7. Connect the Flowmeter Standard to the Impactor Inlet fitting.
8. Set Pressure Drop to 5 cmH
2
0 and wait for the flow to
stabilize. Take 5 samples and average them. Record the
Pressure Drop (dP) and flowmeter (Qcal) readings.
9. Repeat step 8 for 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 cmH
2
0.
10. In the Electrostatic Classifier software, select the Calibration
