                                                          System Description
 
The DustSense 10 series of advanced continuous particulate monitors are based on PCME's unique patented TriboACE technology, giving added reliability and sensitivity over standard Triboelectric systems.  
 
The DustSense 10's alarm levels can be set as a factor or percentage of the background level of particulate.  The user has the ability to set the alarms to instantaneous or average levels above the background or normal level of emissions to indicate early warning of filter failure or gross failure detection.  Alarm delay and data averaging are user selectable.
 
Commissioning is simple and requires no tools or specialized equipment.  The DustSense 10 series complies with the U.K.'s EPA for filter failure detection for Part A and Part B processes and European regulations for filter failure monitoring.
 
Two versions are available - an "a" version, which comprises a separate sensor and control unit connected by a calbe, and a "c" version, which is a combined sensor and control unit that is mounted in the stack or duct.  Two separate alarm relay outputs are available within each mode.
