Summary: | The U.S. Department of Energy ARM user facility’s ENA AOS, designated AOS06, entered service in October of 2013 at the ARM Facility on Graciosa Island, Azores. The Aerosol Observing System is meant to be a standalone, completely autonomous, aerosol sampling system. It requires only power, 208VAC 1φ or 440 VAC 1φ, and an internet connection to be operational. The physical structure is a standard-sized shipping container, 20 feet long by 8 feet wide. Inside, the walls, ceiling, and floors are insulated using >3.5” of spray polyurethane foam with an R-value of 6.2/inch of insulation. The interior walls, floor, and ceiling are lined with ¾” plywood for durability and have integrated unistrut for mounting equipment. |
