Dust Concentration Monitoring Equippment

Posted on 25. Oct. 2005 - 02:00

Dear Mr. Reyes,

please take a look at http://www.tsi.com/Product.aspx?Pid=11. The DustTrak is a small and portable dust monitor able to supply dust concentration as PM10, PM2.5 or PM1.

The instrument sucks air from the ambient, or facility or storage bin etc and measures the dust concentration via a calibrated photometer. You can perform quick spot checks or program the advanced logging modes for long-term unattended sampling. You can also set an alarm level for safety.

Best regards,
