Abstract:
A portable ion mobility spectrometry apparatus ( 1 ) for detecting an aerosol and a method for using the apparatus. The apparatus comprises an ion mobility spectrometer ( 3 ); a portable power source ( 5 ) carried by the apparatus for providing power to the apparatus ( 1 ); an inlet ( 7 ) for collecting a flow of air to be tested by the spectrometer ( 3 ); a heater ( 4 ) configured to heat the air to be tested to vapourise an aerosol carried by the air and a controller ( 2 ) configured to control the spectrometer ( 3 ) to obtain samples from the heated air, wherein the controller is configured to increase a heat output from the heater ( 4 ) for a selected time period before obtaining samples from the heated air.

Claim (Index 10):
A spectrometry apparatus for identifying an aerosol, the apparatus comprising:\n a spectrometer; a chamber for holding a sample of air; and a heater configured to heat an aerosol carried by the sample of air to vapourise the aerosol in the chamber, wherein the spectrometer is adapted to identify the aerosol based on analysing the vapourised aerosol.
