Chapter I. Instrument Introduction Model 3991 is a linear digital aerosol photometer for scattered light with advanced technology and scientific design, and serves as the optimum test instrument for testing the integrity of the high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter or conducting leakage test. Considering the low concentration of atmospheric dust in the upstream of the HEPA filter under test, the aerosol generator should be used to replenish and generate dust to meet the test conditions.
The self-equipped flow monitoring device and sampling pump with an adjustable pulse width, which can achieve excellent performance; Built-in thermal printer, which can support long-term thermal paper printing, real-time reading and printing of test data; Energy saving and consumption reduction, battery powered available; ...

Attention Before testing, the operator should check the sampling joint and ensure that there are no fluffs or impurities blocking the filter screen. During the test, if the pump noise suddenly increases, the operator should check of the gas passage is blocked, especially the filter screen at the sampling joint. It’s recommended to wipe clean the filter screen at the sampling with a piece of silk cloth before each use.
In order to ensure the accuracy of the test results, the upstream and downstream sampling air pipe should not be mixed. 3.1-3 Test Connection at the downstream (low aerosol concentration zone) Attention 1) Be sure to connect the probe’s cable connector before the instrument is powered on.
3.2 Loading printing paper into the printer Please use the printing paper that is matched with the printer, the printing paper’s specifications should be 57mm (2 in) in width. If the printing test results need to be saved for a long run, please choose the long-term thermal o-sensitive printing paper.
If the print paper roll loosen, need to be Uncover the adhesive side of the printer paper, straightened again. both sides are level with bouncing the paper off so that the paper can be the paper shaft, then the paper is tightly rolled smoothly drawn when printing.

Attention Set the upstream concentration to 100% via either method, The allowable upstream mass concentration scope of instrument for test is 5-120 μg/L, ※ When the upstream concentration is more than 120 μg/L or less than 5 μg/L, an error prompt will pop out.
5.1-2 100% concentration self-defined reference value Attention The input range of the value is 5-120. 5.1-3 Set 100% concentration based on the last measured value 5.2 Company Name Input After 100% upstream concentration is established, the operator can input Company Name into the Master and this Name can be traced with the corresponding testing data for printing, data-saving and etc.
5.3 ID. Number input Regarding to the ID number,the operator can input ID into the host, or use the probe to scan the one-dimensional code for automatic identification. If there is no need to input ID number, the operator can directly click "next step" and enter into the test interface 5.

Chapter VI. Setting up ATTENTION 1) When setting up on the main unit, the probe will prompt "main unit setting...", and the probe cannot perform any operations until the main unit returns to the home page interface; 2) When operating on the probe, the host will prompt "Probe setting...", and the host cannot perform any operations until the probe returns to the home page interface;...
6.2—2 Coefficient Suppression ※Coefficient suppression: It is the noise suppression function. By setting the sampling time constant, the test results are displayed as the average value within this period, thereby suppressing the influence of aerosol fluctuations on the test data. The sampling time constants for upstream and downstream are set separately. The time constant ranges from 1 to 120s.
