  • Charging unit for a particle monitoring apparatus, and a particle monitoring apparatus
    Patent number: 11101622
    Abstract: A particle measuring apparatus includes a charging unit to form charged particles from aerosol particles carried by an input flow, and a particle detector to provide an electric current by collecting the charged particles, wherein the charging unit in turn includes a counter-electrode having a substantially hemispherical inner portion to define a charging space, an inlet channel for guiding aerosol particles into the charging space, a corona electrode to form charged particles from the aerosol particles by generating a corona discharge in the charging space, and an outlet channel for guiding charged particles from the charging space to the detector.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 3, 2016
    Date of Patent: August 24, 2021
    Assignee: Dekati Oy
    Inventors: Ville Niemelä, Leo Holma, Sami Lundahl, Tyler Beck
