1  Asuitable cascade impactor is available as Model Mk IIfrom Graseby Inc.,500Technology Court,Smyrna,GA,30082.The impactor is used without the preseparator.The inhaler is connected to the impactor via the induction port,atop the entrance cone shown in Figure 4.If an equivalent impactor is employed,the induction port in Figure 4a should be used,although the entrance cone (Figure 4b)should be replaced with one to fit the impactor in question.Note that the internal surfaces of the induction port(Figure 4a)are designed to fit flush with their counterparts in the entrance cone (Figure 4b).This design avoids aerosol capture at the junction of the two pipes.
