Mobile Monitoring Vehicle

Measurement of ambient air quality parameters is traditionally conducted using permanent and semi-permanent stationary enclosures. However, when there is a requirement for the quantification of site or area level impacts, short-term event monitoring, peak exposure assessments, or comparative analysis, the Ambilabs® Mobile Monitoring Vehicle is the ideal solution.

Key aspects of a mobile monitoring platform are; the system’s ability to perform to a quantifiable standard in its requisite uses, to be autonomous in operation, have the ability to measure both stationary and in motion, versatility in travel surface capability (on and off-road in all-weather conditions), maintaining a “ready” state for rapid deployment, and to have remote capabilities for data collection, instrument control, and remote maintenance.

The Ambilabs® Mobile Monitoring Vehicle has been designed to meet and exceed these requirements. The expertly engineered solutions include the construction of the vehicle in a 3/4-ton four-wheel drive over height van to enable travel on both on and off roadway surfaces in all-weather conditions, installation of a vibration isolated versatile instrument racking system, an onboard combined power system enabling up to 3 days of autonomous operation under extreme climatic conditions, a split stream pressure stabilizing sampling manifold to sample both gases and aerosols from one inlet, and a remote management suite including instrument control, diagnostic monitoring, and data transfer for real-time quantification and response control.
