NEW HAVEN, Conn. (UP) A
"dust camera" which will actually
"shoot" dust In the air and provide
the only permanent record of dust
which can be obtained today by sci
entists making studies in the dust
content of air In various Industries,
has been Invented by Lawrence H.
Ott of Cleveland, a student In the
Sloane physics laboratory at Yale
university.
Ott worked two years with J. B.
Flcklen, chemical engineer for the
Travelers Insurance company, In de
veloping the apparatus which, it was
said, would have prevented the re
cent silicosis tragedy In West Vir
ginia, where several people died as
the result of an over-abundance of
silica dust In the air.
The camera la extremely useful,
Ott says. In Industries using brick
making, quarrying and burnishing In
their manufacturing processes. "As
soon aa employers are required' to
keep the dust volume In the air down
by legal statutes, such a method of
counting dust as we have devised
will be even more Interesting and
valuable," he asserts.
Particles Counted,
The camera takes a picture of the
particles of dust In a very small
amount of air. These particles arc
counted and the percentages of dust
In cubic feet of air estimated, sim
ilar to the method now employed by
physicians and physiologists to de
termine the nupber of blood cells In
the humsn body.
The simple and light apparatus
was fashioned and assembled by Ott
In the machine shop of the Sloane
physics laboratory. It consists of an
upright shaft with a camera box on
top and the lens within the tube
to which are attached three cylin
drical pipes. Each of these three
pipes contains a flashlight bulb, such
as la now used In commercial pho
tography, wired for lighting.
Air Sample Tnken.
A rubber tube Is attached to the
upright metal chamber, and air is
sucked Into tha Interior through a
rubber nozzle. When this sample of
air, which contains the dust to be
photographed, has been drawn Into
the testing chamber, It Is left un
disturbed for a period of from 30 to
60 seconds. The shutter of the cam
era then Is opened and the photo
flashlight Is fired by a pocket battery
three bulbs being touched off si
multaneously. Tho present equipment weighs
eight pounds, but Ott is working to
develop a dust camera with one bulb
to weigh only five pounds. The de
partment of the interior recently
communicated with the Yale physi
cists for complete information about
tha new camera process.
The camera provides the only
means known at present of pre
serving a permanent record of the
amount of dust In a given locality at
any particular moment.
