Abstract :
In the paper a measurement method enabling direct examination of an aerosol, with fast and clear measurement results has been presented. The measurement technique is based on the method of light scattering on particles ("particle counter"). Important for the right operation of the presented optical setup is an appropriate mechanism of delivering and withdrawing the aerosol from the measurement area avoiding its condensation. Results of measurements for chosen aerosols have been presented.
