Abstract
Mono-electrode self “zeroing” air-ion counter and mobility (size) scanning spectrometer (CDI-011) based on the Gerdien aspirated condenser principle has been developed. Instrument is intended for short- and long-term indoor and outdoor air-ion concentration measurements and scanning of air-ions by mobility. Measuring small currents (typically 10−14A) generated by the air-ions in outdoor conditions is demanding and causes many problems related to change of temperature, relative humidity, wind and electromagnetic noise. Also, measuring of both ion polarities with mono electrode detector require alternate changes of the polarizing voltage sign which produces capacitive current spikes. Various techniques, including “zeroing” method, have been applied to successfully overcome most of these measuring interferences.
