Carl Zeiss Konimeter

Picture
Picture

This is a Carl Zeiss konimeter in the collection of an instrument collector in Catalonia.  A konimeter is an instrument for measuring the dust content of a sample of air.  A measured volume of air is drawn through a jet, to impinge on a surface coated with a glycerin jelly.  The dust adheres to the surface and the particles are counted under a microscope.
A manual for the Zeiss konimeter may be downloaded below (12 pages):
