A new type of instrument has been designed to measure and record the likelihood of dust emitted from a chimney causing nuisance at ground level. The instrument measures the difference between the optical obscuration produced by a clean glass surface and that produced by the same glass surface when dust collected from a flue duct has settled on it. The method of collection is based on the assumption that vertical surfaces are more important in pollution than horizontal surfaces, and that coarse particles are more likely to cause nuisance than fine particles. Care has been taken in the design to eliminate errors normally associated with optical instruments of this nature, for example those caused by a dirty optical system, ageing photocells and lamps, and mains voltage and temperature fluctuations.The instrument has a novel recording method which enables it to operate over an unusually large range of signal levels. It will facilitate the control of dust emission from industrial chimneys. |
