ABSTRACT:
An air sampling device comprises a pump assembly including a pump and a motor operably associated with the pump, the air flow rate of the assembly being substantially characterized by a function having a plurality of measurable variables; sensors for periodically automatically monitoring the variables; a programmable computer operably associated with the sensors for periodically estimating the instantaneous air flow rate of the pump from the function and the monitored variables and for camparing the calculated instantaneous air flow rate with a previously programmed desired air flow rate; and a DC-DC converter responsive to the computer and operably associated with the motor for modulating the motor speed in response to the computer to thereby cause the instantaneous air flow rate of the pump to approach the desired air flow rate.
