These particles are often referred to as ‘nuisance dust’. PM10 – Particulate Matter less than 10 microns in size (Max 50 microns/m3) PM10: Total Suspended Particulates , high volume sampler, collects particles from 0.1 micron up to 10 micron. These particles are healthrelated as they are the size that can be inhaled. TSP– Particulate Matter less than 120 microns in size (Max 120 microns/m3)
