Carbon Black Filter Tape Roll
High-Performance Glass Fiber Filter Tape for Black Carbon Monitoring
Description
The proprietary filter tape is specifically engineered for continuous black carbon (BC) monitoring applications. Made from high-quality glass fibers with PTFE/PET coating and supported by a mechanical backing system, this filter tape ensures reliable sample collection and transport within the instrument.
When a sampling spot reaches the pre-set loading density, the tape automatically advances to create a fresh sampling area, enabling continuous, unattended operation. Each roll provides 10 meters of filter tape, offering extended operational periods from several weeks to several months, depending on ambient BC concentrations and selected operational flow rates.
Features & Benefits
• Proprietary glass fiber construction – optimized for black carbon particle retention
• PTFE/PET coating – enhanced chemical resistance and sample integrity
• Mechanical backing support – ensures smooth transport and positioning within the instrument
• Automatic advancement system – continuous operation without manual intervention
• Extended operational life – 10-meter roll length provides weeks to months of monitoring
• High loading capacity – accommodates varying BC concentrations efficiently
• Consistent sampling spots – uniform collection areas for reliable measurements
• Temperature stable – maintains performance across operational temperature ranges
