Instrument description

The SP2 was located in the temperature-controlled trailer adjacent to the NCSU Flux Tower to observe refractory black carbon (rBC) number concentration and mixing states of black carbon. The sample line brought aerosol inside the trailer at 4.5 L min-1, where it was distributed between 3 CPCs (TSI 3776c, Dc ~ 2.5 nm, TSI 3771, Dc ~10nm, and TSI 3772, Dc ~40 nm) with different size cuts, a printed particle optical spectrometer (POPS), and SP2.
