Additional Information Real-Time Primary Measurements Safety / Electrical Designations "30 MIN CONC" = Primary current mass concentration (mg/m3)
The PDM3600 is for use in the United States and complies with the following
Represents the latest 30-minute running average of dust exposure
Certifi ed intrinsically safe by the Mine Safety Health Administration (MSHA)
• "CUM1"
Primary cumulative mass concentration (mg/m3)
Equals the total dust loading since the beginning of the working shift
"PERCNT OF LIMIT"= Indicates percent of exposure limit for primary
UN T1-T8 (shipment of lithium ion batteries)
Secondary User-initiated Measurements
The PDM3600 Charger complies with the ANSI/UL 1012 standard for power units other than Class 2, 7th Edition (4/29/05).
For engineering purposes, the PDM3600 is designed to perform user-initiated secondary measurements without interference to primary sample measurements. "15 MIN CONC" = Secondary current concentration (mg/m3) Represents the last 15-minute running average of dust exposure since user initiated activation • "CUM2"
Represents the dust loading since user initiated activation
