MAGEE Scientific AE33 Remote Control
Remote control for MAGEE Scientific AE33 Aethalometer instrument
MAGEE Scientific AE33 Aethalometer is a scientific instrument for measuring the concentration of Black Carbon in the air. This app provides a remote desktop access to the AE33 Aethalometer control panel.
What is Black Carbon?
1. Black Carbon is a primary aerosol component of Diesel Particulate Matter, a known toxin and regulated pollutant by several regulatory agencies, including the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
2. Diesel Particulate Matter is known to cause adverse health effects in people who are exposed, including premature hospitalization, asthma attacks, bronchitis, other respiratory and cardiovascular symptoms, and premature death.
3. Black Carbon is the second leading cause of Global Warming.
4. Black Carbon is emitted as a primary pollutant to the atmosphere through a variety of incomplete combustion of sources and fuels; BC concentration cannot be modeled or predicted, it must be measured.
5. Black Carbon is NOT adequately characterized through PM-2.5 mass only measurements, chemical speciation is necessary.
