Filter Filter Total-Flow Pump Figure 5-1 Aerosol Flow Through the Model 3321 APS Spectrometer ™ After passing through the orifice, the sheath flow is reunited with the sample flow at the accelerating orifice nozzle. This flow confines the sample particles to the center stream and accelerates the airflow around the particles. -
Page 44: Chapter 5 Theory Of Operation
Sample flow is filtered before and after each of the two pumps. The filter upstream of the pump protects the pump from contamination. The filter downstream of the pump prevents contamination of the flow as the pump vanes wear. O p t i c s P a t h The first component in the optics path, see Figure 5-2, is the laser diode. -

The high gain value is checked for an over range in the A/D digital value, which indicates a large particle. If it is over range, the digital value from the low gain A/D is output to the digital module. If it is not over range, the digital value from the high gain A/D is output. - Page 49 Event 2.
