, a 400,000-fold span, corresponding to very clean air
up to an extremely high aerosol concentration.
In addition to the auto-ranging real-time concentration readout, the ADR-
1500 offers the user a wide range of information by scrolling its two-line
LCD screen, such as run start time and date, time averaged concentration,
elapsed run time, maximum and STEL values with times of occurrence,
battery voltage, remaining data storage memory, temperature, RH,
volumetric flow rate, barometric pressure, etc.
Operating parameters selected, diagnostic information, and calibration
displays are also available with the ADR-1500. From the instrument
display panel the user can:
Enable a run
●
Enable an auto-start run time and date
●
Zero the instrument
●
Fully configure data logging options
●
Adjust display average time
●
Adjust analog span output
●
Identify type of inlet/cyclone installed
●
Adjust flow rate with automatic D50 cut point feedback
●
Enable/disable f (RH) correction
●
Enable/disable the heater
●
Enable/disable and select alarm output threshold
●
Adjust time and date
●

Furthermore, the ADR-1500 features complete, large capacity internal data
logging capabilities with retrieval through an externally connected
computer via USB device. The stored information (> 450k data points)
includes average concentration and maximum values with time information
and tag numbers, operating parameters, error codes, and each time-
stamped logged record provided concentration, temperature, RH,
barometric pressure, and error status.
