Product Description
The Buck BioAire™ Model B520 is a bioaerosol sampling pump
designed to draw air into standard bioaerosol sampling cassettes, such
as the Buck BioAire™ Cassette and the Air-O-Cell™*. These
impaction slit air samplers have little restriction to air flow and allow
larger flow rates to be drawn through the cassette with little
backpressure.
A microprocessor controls the BioAire™’s flowrate and provides
preset timing routines for sample collection. The pump is capable of
flow rates from 5 to 20 Liters Per Minute (LPM). The flows are
adjustable from the keypad in (CAL) Calibration Mode. The
calibrated flow rate will be maintained at a constant flow throughout
the collection period.
Four timing routines are selectable from the keypad and continuous
flow is achieved by pressing the ON key for 4 seconds. The OFF key
manually stops the pump from sampling.
The pump uses nickel cadmium (NiCad) rechargeable batteries and
will operate up to five hours on a fully charged pack.
The standard battery charger supplied with the pump charges
the batteries in 6 hours. An optional FastOne™ (APB-601900)
One Hour charger is available. A/C powered operation can be
conducted with the supplied Standard Charger .

Audible Alert ON/OFF
The arrow keys will turn off the audible “beep” in areas where sound
is not appropriate. With the pump power ON, press the Down Arrow
Key for 4 (four) seconds or until two beeps acknowledge the disabling
of the beeper. Press the Up Arrow Key for 4 (four) seconds or until
three beeps signify the audible beeper is ON.
Low Battery Warning
When sampling pressing the down arrow key will light up the LED’s,
located on the right side of the unit, based on the battery charge. If all 5
LED light the batteries are 100%. If 4 light is 80%, 3 light = 60%, etc.
The low battery LED will begin flashing when there is only enough
power to collect a 10 minute sample.
Sample Timing Lock-Out
Once the Red low battery warning LED stops blinking and becomes
Solid Red, none of the timing keys will function and a new sampling
cannot be started. At this time the pump must be recharged or plugged
into the charger to continue sampling.
Tripod Mount
A connector located on the bottom of the unit provides easy
connection to most standard tripods.

Sampling Setup
1. Fully charge the pump to be assured of the maximum sampling
time.
2. Place a bioaerosol sample cassette firmly into the hose connection
of the sampling head on the top of the unit.
3. Turn the pump on by pressing the ON key. At this moment the
BioAiare™ pump will actuate all the indicating LED lights for one
second and beep twice to acknowledge the turn on. This “turn on
process” provides confirmation to the operator that the indicating lights
and beeper are functioning properly and that the unit has adequate
battery power to operate.
Calibrate and Set Flow Rate
1. Place the Rotameter Calibrator on top of
the cassette as shown.
2. The CAL key, when pressed, will turn
on the pump motor to approximately
15LPM with the BioAire™ or Air-O-Cell™
Cassette installed
3. Use the Arrow Keys to move the flow
rate up ▲or down ▼until the red ball of the
Rotameter is centered at the 15LPM mark.
The pump requires 10-15 seconds to stabilize after the arrow keys
are pressed.
4. Once the flow is selected, press the CAL key to stop the pump and
store in memory the flow rate selected. This will remain as the flow
rate until the calibration is changed by pressing the CAL key and
repeating Steps 1-4. The BioAire™ Model B520 is now ready to
collect a sample.
For greatest accuracy, calibrate with each use, or at least daily.
The Rotameter Calibrator is a Secondary Flow Standard and can be
used anytime to verify flow rate. or to check flow restriction of a
bioaerosol cassette (flow restriction, or higher backpressure, will
result in a lower flowrate reading on the Rotameter).
Note: a dedicated “calibration” sampling cassette may be used for
flow rate setting to avoid possible contamination to an actual
sample.
Operating Instructions – Model B520
Wall Charger (APB-603900)
The standard wall charger supplied will charge the batteries in
approximately 6 hours or run the pump when battery is low.
FastOne™ Charger APB-601900
Optional. The FastOne Charger will charge
the Pump’s batteries in approximagely one
hour. This charger uses a “negative delta
voltage” technique which proveds a fully
charged pack before going to a trickle mode.
LED lights on the charger indicate the status
of the charging.
Sampling
1. Place the sampling cassette firmly into the sampling
head of the BioAire™ pump.
2. Turn on the pump by pressing the ON Key (the green
“POWER” LED is lighted) .
3. Start the sampling by pressing one of the timing keys
(1, 2, 5, or 10 minutes). LED will light.
The BioAire™ will automatically run to the calibrated
flow for the selected time.
End of Sampling
At the conclusion of the sampling, the pump will stop. The
“COMPLETE” LED will light and the timer LED will be flashing
to indicate which timing routine was selected.
Auto Power Off for Battery Conservation
The BioAire™ turns off 5 minutes after being turned ON if no keys
have been pressed. The pump automatically turns off approximately
30 minutes after any sampling routine if no other key is pressed.
