Fidas® Frog System

Fidas® Frog

Aerosol sensors

The sensors manufactured by Palas® operate on the proven principle of single particle measurement using the scattered light method with high resolution to determine the distribution of particle size and concentration. For years they have been used in industry and science for the analysis and evaluation of airborne particles as well as in official and continuous fine dust monitoring according to the EN 16450 standard.

Like all sensors of the Fidas® line, the sensors can be easily calibrated on site using monodisperse particles and thus allow a constant and stable measurement of particle concentration values and mass fractions of PM1 – TSP.
