The TCA08 is our revolutionary new instrument that provides a real-time analysis of the Total Carbon content of a sampled aerosol stream. It is explicitly designed for “on-line” ambient-air monitoring and laboratory use.
The TCA08 is rugged, field-worthy instrument that uses NO GAS, contains NO GLASS, and requires NO CATALYST.
Complete Characterization of Carbonaceous Aerosols:
Combination of TCA08 with AE33 Aethalometer
Complete Characterization of Carbonaceous Aerosols:The combination of the Aethalometer AE33 with the Total Carbon Analyzer TCA08 provides a complete identification of the carbonaceous component of ambient aerosols in near-Real-Time:
BC (‘EC’) ; BrC ; OC : TC
Note: The AE 33 Aethalometer must be running software version 1.4.4.0 or greater. If needed, please download this from the Magee Scientific User’s group website.

SW 1.2.0.0. installation notes
Storage warning was implemented in this software release. If database size exceeds limit value, you might be asked to delete old Data rows. Only diagnostic data on 1-sec time base will be deleted. However, we still recommend to export database to USB stick before deleting any data.
