Page 4: Introduction
Aethalometer HAP INTRODUCTION Measurements of Aerosol Black Carbon at remote or high-altitude locations are essential for determining the long-range transport of pollution; impacts on sensitive ecosystems; and radiative forcing for climate change. The analytical performance of instruments such as the AE33 and AE43 Aethalometers is directly proportional to the sample air flow rate. -
Page 5: Unpacking The Equipment
Aethalometer HAP 1.1 Unpacking the equipment Items packed with the Aethalometer High Altitude Booster Pump ( AETH-HA-PUMP ) are as follows: • External AC/DC power supply (VES150PS12) • Control cable (HAP 1 99 004) • Power supply cord (B88F306 (EU), M6115 (US), M6117 (China), M5118 (UK)) •... -
Page 6: Intended Use And Description Of The Equipment
Aethalometer HAP 1.2 Intended use and description of the equipment. The AE33/AE43 internal suction pump draws the sample air stream into the inlet connector and through the analytical filtration area. The pump speed is under closed-loop software control to stabilize the sample flow rate to the desired set point. Two flow sensors measure the airflow in the two sampling streams. -

Aethalometer HAP 3.2 AC/DC power supply and connecting cable The external AC/DC power supply, cord and Control Cable are supplied with the Booster Pump. Connect them as shown in Figure 5. Figure 5. Connect AETH-HA-PUMP (12 VDC, 150 W connector) to power supply with External AC/DC power supply adapter (VES150PS12). -
Page 12: Flow Range Set Valve Adjustment
Aethalometer HAP 3.3 Flow range set valve adjustment The Flow range set valve is located on the rear panel (Figure 6). The purpose of this valve is to control the minimum lower flow of the HAP. Figure 6. Flow range set valve is located on the rear panel. NOTE: If the valve is fully open, the minimum lower flow of the HAP may exceed the maximum flow of the internal AE33/AE43 pump. - Page 13 Aethalometer HAP FULLY OPENED FLOW RANGE SET VALVE Aethalometer HAP AE33 internal suction pump 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 Attitude [m above sea level] Figure 7. If the valve is fully open, the minimum flow of the HAP exceeds the maximum flow of the internal AE33/AE43 pump.
