Description
Airborne particles consist of a mixture of solid matter and liquid droplets. Quantifying the concentration of particles in indoor air can give important information about:
- Air quality
- Pollutant sources
- Effectiveness of pollution control measures
- Filter efficiency
Real-Time Particle Measurement
The ParticleScan Lite uses laser technology to measure particle concentrations in ambient air. The instrument continuously samples and analyses the concentration of airborne particles and displays an updated reading every six seconds on the easy-to-read LED display. This enables the user to monitor particle concentration changes as they occur. It also allows individual pollution sources to be tracked down by using the ParticleScan as a “particle sniffer”.
High Sensitivity
The ParticleScan Lite can identify single particles, making it far more sensitive than photometers and other particle monitors, which identify only particle clouds.
Improving Indoor Air Quality
Begin by sampling the areas of concern and record the relative particle levels in each area. Make sure to include areas with both acceptable and unacceptable indoor air quality along with outdoor reference levels. In areas with the highest particle concentration, use the ParticleScan to locate the particle source and take corrective steps to eliminate, or reduce the source. Once remediation is complete, go on to areas with the next highest particle levels and repeat the process.
