EIGENBRODT® FOG SAMPLERS


FOG WATER COLLECTION ON THE IMPACTOR PRINCIPLE
All types of Eigenbrodt fog sampler feature the same principle of collection:
Fog water is collected with a sampler operating on the impactor principle (see figure). The air is sucked at a rate of rd. 125 m³/h
through a twin nozzle behind. A specially designed deposition body is placed onto which the fog droplets are impacted. The
deposition body has a vertically oriented hole in its centre which is connected to the impaction surface by numerous small bored
holes. The centre hole and the instruments exits are connected by tubes so
that a slight under pressure is applied sustaining a slight air flow through the
capillary holes.

The deposition body has a small rim at each side preventing the deposited
water from being ripped off and carried away with the fast air stream. The fog
droplets which are deposited coagulate and this water is sucked into the small
holes due to capillary forces and under pressure and drains into the centre
from where it flows into two collection bottles.

By this way a rapid separation of the collected water from the strong air
stream behind the nozzle is reached and problems as evaporation or
continuing reactions are minimized. Behind the nozzle the air is guided by
semicircular surfaces to the exit in order to avoid turbulences

(Schematic view of the FOG SAMPLER


and the deposition bodies.)

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

CONTROL OF AUTOMATIC OPERATION


The laser based visibility sensor ONED 250 detects the visibility of the fog. In case the visibility is below a set point for a certain time,
the control electronics starts the operation of vacuum pump, which continuously sucks fog through the fog sampling device. In case
the visibility is above the set point for a certain time the pump is stopped.
The sampling process is also stopped when ever the ambient temperature is below 2°C in order to prevent the twin nozzles blocking
by icing. In most climate conditions there can be no fog expected with temperatures higher than 17°C, therefore also the sampling is
being stopped automatically. (limits can be changed on customer request)
An automatic system also prevents from damages by switching off the side channel blower for a certain time after a defined time of
continuous operation.

CLIMATE CONTROL FOR THE SAMPLE


A controlled thermoelectric heating and cooling system for the samples enables all year operation of the fog sampler. – The sample
keeps longer the composition of chemicals.

DATA LOGGING (OPTIONAL)


The basic information as switching on/off the pump; ambient temperature and humidity can be logged by an (optional) data logger,
which is built into the main housing.

NILU PARTICLE FALLOUT COLLECTOR AND PRECIPITATION COLLECTOR

The NILU Particulate Fallout Collector and the NILU


Precipitation Collector have been developed to collect
representative samples of dry and wet atmospheric particulate
fallout for subsequent analysis.
The design and development of the NILU collectors are based
on an evaluation of similar equipment in use in various
countries, including available wet precipitation collectors for
meteorological purposes. In addition to the given performance
criteria, factors such as construction materials, ease of handling
and transportability determined the shape and dimensions of
the collectors. The Fallout Collector has been considered by
ISO (International Standardization Organization) for adoption as
an international reference collector for particulate fallout. Its
design is according to the recommendations of ISO as the
present use of materials and procedures permit. (ISO/DIS
4222.2).

The mounting stand can be used for both collector types. Its
design allows both collectors to have the same position relative
to the bird ring. The stand is adjustable in height so that the
collectors can always be adjusted to the prescribed height
above ground (for instance when the snow depth varies), and to
facilitate the changing of collectors. The Precipitation Collector
is not designed to be used in freezing conditions. During
freezing conditions, when the evaporation losses are low, the
Fallout Collector can be used as precipitation collector as well.
In addition the sampling capacity is greater.

AUTOMATIC PRECIPITATION SAMPLER UNS 130/E AND UNS 130/D

one sample bottle, for universal use

 Funnel, 500 cm² collection surface


 Compact housing
 Collection electronic drive
 Single sample bottle (5 litre)
 Chemically neutral material of single components
 Electronic heating, thermostatic controlled
 Precipitation sensor RS 85 - sensitivity 0,05mm

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The collector is developed for universal use and can be modified for the users’ specific problems. The compact module system and
the automatic collection system make it possible for use in extremely difficult locations, such as ships, research platforms, mountain
stations, towers etc.. The funnel is inserted from the top into the thick walled PVC housing. The sample bottle can be easily removed
from the apparatus at the end of the period of measurement for laboratory analysis. Every single component which is used for
measurement is made out of chemically neutral material. Direct material, funnel shape and the collection surface correspond to the
standards of the VDI-recommendations 3870 (VDI: Association of German Engineers). A thermostatically controlled heater is
intended for winter operation
Type E: The collection funnel is connected with a hose to the 5000 ml sample bottle via a outlet.
Type D: The collection funnel is connected with a hose to the sample insert module for collection of two samples, via a outlet. There
are 2 pcs. HD-PE collection bottles provided each 1500 ml for collecting the samples.

PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT
An impulse from the Precipitation Sensor RS 85 at the start of precipitation causes the cover device to open up the collection funnel
in the following way: The lid moves up, swings to the side and sinks down to prevent introducing aerodynamic interference to the
sampling process. The precipitation coming from the funnel flows over a pipe into the bottle. When precipitation has ceased, a signal
from the Precipitation Sensor RS 85, which operates with an adjustable heating element, causes a motor to close the collection
funnel. For winter operation proportionally controlled funnel and main chamber heating for the sample bottle are provided

NSA 161/R T-N PRECIPITATION SAMPLER


Precipitation sampler for control of radioactivity in total deposition

 Sampling of total deposition


 Corresponding to the recommendations of the German
guideline for control of emissions and immissions for
nuclear plants

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The precipitation collector is designed to collect the precipitation for later on radioactive analysis, which is requested by German law
to nuclear plants. The analysed element is the active concentration of -rays per litre collected precipitation.
To determine the active radiation consecration correctly, one collector shall be placed within the main wind direction of the nuclear
site and the other one on the opposite direction.

The housing with a cylindrical shape is made out of polyethylene, double walled and isolated with mineral wool. An open collection
funnel out of PE with integrated rim is used to collect the total deposition and can be removed from the instrument for cleaning. At
the front of the instrument there is a lockable door to enable the changing of the sample container
During the winter season the inner chamber will be kept at a temperature of some degrees over zero by two thermostatically
controlled convective heating and axial ventilators, to melt down the snow and to avoid the freezing of the water in the sample
container.

PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT
The precipitation, collected in the funnel area flows via a outlet and a drain off house into distributing system out of PE. 4 pieces
bottle (20 litres each) are filled one after the other. In case all bottles are completely filled an integrated overflow leads the additional
water to the outlet. A meter scale indicated the collected precipitation within each of the bottles.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The precipitation sampler is used for the purpose of collecting the precipitation, depending of its configuration, in a large sample
bottle (E configuration), 2 bottles for weekly samples (D configuration) or in 8 separate day or single daily samples (S configuration).
The individual sample bottle can be easily removed from the apparatus at the end of the period of measurement for laboratory
analysis. Every single component which is used for measurement is made out of chemically neutral material and placed in a
thermally insulated housing. At high temperatures the housing is ventilated automatically to avoid overheating from intense radiation
of the sun. For winter operation an electronically controlled funnel heating and a heating for the sample room are provided.
Direct material, funnel shape and the collection surface correspond to the standards of the VDI-recommendations 3870. (VDI:
Association of German Engineers)

PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT
At the start of precipitation an impulse from the Precipitation Sensor RS 85 (optional NRS80 or IRSS 88) causes the cover
mechanics to open up the collection funnel in the following way: The lid moves up, swings to the side and sinks down to prevent
introducing aerodynamic interference to the sampling process. The rim of the funnel remains to be the highest part of the collector.
The design of the collector avoids back-splashing of water into the funnel itself. The precipitation coming from the funnel flows over a
pipe directly into the sample bottle (E configuration) or into a ring funnel an then through a hole into the rotating head. The rotating
head is connected to the individual hard polyethylene sample bottle by drain pipes and silicone hoses (D or S configuration). When
precipitation has ceased a signal from the Precipitation Sensor causes a motor to close the collection funnel.

Distribution of precipitation samples - configuration „D“ and „S“:


The precipitation coming from the funnel flows into a ring funnel an then through a hole into the rotating head. The rotating head is
connected to the individual hard polyethylene sample bottle by drain pipes and silicone hoses. A SIEMENS ® LOGO® control, which
is programmable, causes a motor to advance the ring funnel and gathered precipitation fall into the following bottle by the way of the
next opening of the rotating head. In case of breakdown in the external power supply all switching points will be caught up
automatically. An accumulator will provide current for time control and for control of the rotating head at least for 24 hours to ensure
the bottle changing.

Page: 23 Specifications are subject to change without prior notice, E & OE


TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The continuous measurements of pH and conductivity yield instantaneous values for the amount of dissolved trace substances as
well as the acidity. The synchronous measurement of the two parameters allows quality control of the results and a good estimate of
the amount of free acid in the precipitation. Acidity and amounts of trace substances obtained by precipitation correspond closely to
the temporal development of the precipitation event. Therefore the concurrent measurement of amount and intensity of precipitation
gives insight into the physics of the removal processes. Analysis of precipitation in laboratories is possible through the separation of
material flowing through the measurement block and material collected in the sample bottle. Every single component which is used
for measurement is made out of chemically neutral material and placed in a terminally insulated housing. Direct material, funnel
shape and the collection surface correspond to the standards of the VDI-recommendations 3870 (VDI: Association of German
Engineers). This monitor is fitted with electronically controlled heatings for winter operation.
Automatic working ventilation starts to replace inside air with filtered ambient air at temperatures of 25° and above. Alternatively an
optional refrigerating machine with defrost automatic is installed. With the help of a plate evaporating unit with ventilation the
temperature of the cooling space is constant held on 4-7 ºC.

PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT
An impulse from the precipitation sensor at the start of precipitation causes the cover device to open up the collection funnel in the
following way: The lid moves up, swings to the side and sinks down to prevent introducing aerodynamic interference to the sampling
process.
From the funnel the precipitation to flows a tipping bucket, being separated into two equal portions. One half is collected directly in
the sample bottles (optional), the second half flows into the temperature controlled measuring unit. There it first flows by the electrical
conductivity and temperature measurement – then it will be drop wise (galvanic) separated and - then the water passes by the pH
probe.
When precipitation has ceased, a signal from the precipitation sensor RS 85, which operates with an adjustable heating element,
causes a motor to close the collection funnel.

At the bottom of the collector an automatic working refrigerating machine with defrost automatic is installed. With the help of a plate
evaporating unit with ventilation the temperature of the cooling space is constant held on 4-6 ºC

The RS 85 OP is like the standard Precipitation Sensor RS85, but without snow pins. The pyramid shape
allows a good detection to all 4 directions. This sensor suitable for operation in areas with few snowfall, like
in maritime climatic conditions.

Precipitation Sensor NRS 80 is suitable for the use in areas with few snowfall, for instance in maritime
climatic conditions.

Ideal for high polluted areas or close to the sea also for low power applications with solar and/or battery
power supply we recommend the use of the Precipitation Sensor IRSS 88. The measurement principle
is opto-electronical. In order to determine the precipitation, the number of drops and also the detecting
interval length are adjustable.

Snow top - OPTION “H” (heated or not heated)


Housings with snow top have a better aerodynamic profile and
