Monte Curcio instruments. Tekran 1130 - Oxidized Mercury Speciation Module

Monte Curcio (MCU) instruments: Tekran 1130 Oxidized Mercury Speciation Module. The Model 1130 Oxidized Mercury Speciation Unit expands the Model 2537 Mercury Vapor Analyser capabilities to simultaneously monitor elemental and gaseous oxidized mercury (GOM and RGM) species in ambient air. It includes a Denuder module, a Pump module and the Zero Air Dryer Module. A specially coated annular denuder captures reactive mercury while allowing elemental mercury to pass through. During the sampling (adsorption) phase, the Model 2537 provides real time measurement of elemental mercury. During the analysis (desorption) phase, the denuder is flooded with Zero Air and heated. The captured reactive mercury is thermally desorbed and reduced to elemental form. The Model 2537 detects this eluted mercury, providing a measurement of total reactive mercury captured during the previous sampling period. The desorption process also regenerates the denuder coating. After cooling, the denuder is ready for another cycle. All timing parameters on the Model 1130 are programmable, allowing automatic RGM readings to be taken at user specified intervals.

Statement
The Tekran 2537 and 1130 pump module are housed in a sheltered, mercury-free (less than 15 ng/m3), temperature controlled structure (15ºC -30ºC) [3]. Outside the shelter, the inlet of 1130/1135 system is positioned such that the inlet is ≤ 45° from vertical objects and trees, and ≤ 30° from buildings [5,6]. The parameter settings is established as below. The Autocal feature is set to “Yes” to indicate that the internal permeation source used for automatic calibrations is chosen. Sample timing in set at 5-minute sampling interval.//Ref. Operation manual Model 1130 (http://www.tekran.com) and GMOS SOPs (http://www.gmos.eu)
