Personal Sampling from 5 to 3000 ml/min
The AirLite sample pump is economically designed for personal sampling of asbestos, lead, and other airborne contaminants in environments not requiring intrinsic safety approvals. Powered by economical, disposable AA alkaline batteries, the AirLite provides run times greater than 8 hours in the 5 to 500 and 750 to 3000 ml/min flow ranges with full back pressure compensation. Automatic features ensure accurate air volumes, while an internal sensor corrects flow for changes in temperature. The bright LED indicates pump and battery status. AirLite is small and lightweight for easy attachment to a worker's belt where it won't interfere with worker activity.
Performance Profile
Compensated Flow Range: 5 ml/min to 3000 L/min, 5%
Back Pressure Range: below 1.5 L/min > 30 inches water
below 2.0 L/min > 20 inches water
below 2.5 L/min > 15 inches water
below 3.0 L/min > 10 inches water
Compensated Temp. Range: 5 to 50 C
Power: Three standard AA alkaline batteries
Indicator Functions: Flashing LED
Slow flash = normal run
Fast flash = flow fault
Double flash = low battery, approximately one-hour run-time remaining
Four flashes every six seconds = pump shutdown due toflow fault

About.....Low Flow Sampling
 
The AirLite Sample Pump becomes a fully versatile sampler when combined with the low flow adapter kit.
The kit's Constant Pressure Controller (CPC) accessory expands the AirLite's flow range capability to include the 5 to 500 ml/min range. 


The Advantage

Economical Battery Operation.
The AirLite Sample Pump operates on three disposable AA alkaline batteries that can be purchased at your local grocery store. Run times range from 8 to 12 hours depending on battery brand. Available for immediate use  no need to maintain batteries or charge before sampling.
