When to Use Sample Probes of Particle Counter
Particle Counter
Probes with transport tubing should be pointed towards the filter when in a laminar flow area. In not laminar flow areas, the probe should be placed at work height and pointed upwards. Pointing the probe upwards allows the particles to float down into the probe. If the probe were in a horizontal position, 5 µm and larger particles will float past the probe due to their inertia and never become part of the sample.
