The high volume air sampler AZA-1000 was built in the Environmental Protection Laboratory of the Andrzej Sołtan Institute for Nuclear Studies. In July 2002, this air sampler AZA-1000 was installed in the Polish Polar Observatory of the Polish Academy of Science in Hornsund, Spitsbergen. The device was built with numerous specific features which make possible to operate such station in extra difficult climatic conditions of polar region. Since July 2002, radioactive aerosols were collected at the Petrianov filter tissue FPP-15-1.5 and measured using high resolution g spectrometry in the Environmental Protection Laboratory at Świerk. The concentration of the airborn, cosmogenic radionuclide 7Be and of other natural and man maid radionuclides like 137Cs was determined. A comparison of the preliminary results with those from the ASS-500 sampling station operating at Świder is presented.
