AIR-AIDE Particulate Monitor
The AIR-AIDE is a fixed point monitor with interchangeable size-selective impactors to survey dust levels, and is powered by a long life internal air sample pump to maintain accurate flow for particle separation. The AIR-AIDE has built-in calibration factors for fine and coarse particulate matter.
- Sample pump maintains accurate flow for particle separation
- Easy to read digital display showing instantaneous readings in mg/m3, and TWA, STEL, Minimum and Maximum
- Interchangeable size-selective impactors
- Built-in correction factors for fine and coarse particulate matter
- On-screen programmable sampling and storage options
- Large data storage capacity
- 10 hour run time with rechargeable NiMH battery
- Extended running time with AC adaptor
- Optional wireless data transmission to PC
- Easy to use DustComm Pro Software for data downloading, trend analysis and comprehensive reporting of concentration changes over time
