Resolve� PTFE Filters for Radioactive Air Particulate Monitoring and Beyond
Three interdependent systems are necessary to accomplish the task of monitoring for the presence of radioactive particulates in air. These are an air sampling pump, filter media and radioactivity detection system. Just as the keystone is critical to proper performance of an archway, the filter is also important to the air monitoring process. For example, if the filter is too porous, the target particles may not be retained or may be trapped so deeply inside the filter medium that alpha measurements are adversely affected. Likewise, if the pore size is too small, airflow can be impeded resulting in the pump overheating or failure to draw sufficient air for the analysis.
