Met One Instruments, Inc. Announces Nationwide Trade-In Program for Older Style BAM-1020, Other Monitors, for the BAM-1020 PM2.5 FEM
(EQPM-0308-170)

Met One Instruments, Inc. made history with the BAM-1020 when the US-EPA and the U.S. Federal Government announced that the BAM-1020 had become the first continuous particulate monitor to earn US-EPA designation as a Class III PM2.5 equivalent method in March, 2008.

Met One Instruments, Inc. is pleased to announce a special program for existing users of older BAM-1020 monitors or other continuous PM monitors to trade these units for the BAM-1020 PM2.5 FEM.

This program provides customers with an economical way of replacing equipment, which in many cases is more than twelve years old, with the BAM-1020 PM2.5 FEM. The BAM-1020 PM2.5 FEM is the only continuous particulate monitor, which the US-EPA allows to be used as a replacement for labor-intensive, manual PM2.5 FRM samplers.
