22. e regardless of the flow rate through the instrument However size selective aerosol sampling inlets such as impactors and cyclones require specific flow rates to function within their design specifications If you are using a size selective inlet you must adjust the flow rate precisely It s always a good practice to adjust the flow rate immediately prior to the start of a sampling session To adjust the flow rate you will need a flow calibrator This can be a simple rotameter or a precision flow calibrator often used for setting the flow on personal sampling pumps A flow calibrator is an optional item and is not included with standard AM510 kits 1 Connect a flow calibrator to the AM510 inlet 2 Start the AM510 by pressing the PAGE key After the monitor goes into SURVEY MODE press the key to reach the MAIN MENU 3 Under MAIN MENU use the A V keys to scroll to Setup and press 4 4 Under SETUP MENU use the A V keys to display Adjust Flow and press J 5 Under FLOWRATE use the A V keys to adjust the flow up or down until the calibrator reads the flow rate you desire press 1 to confirm the setting The SidePak display shows a Range value for reference purposes and is only an approximation Each single click of an arrow key changes the flow by 1 percent of the available range You can change the flow more quickly by holding the arrow key down Chapter 3 Statistics The statistics menu allows you to view computed s
