HAZ-DUST I Particulate Monitor

The HAZ-DUST I is ideal as a portable survey tool for particulate monitoring with its simple operation and instantaneous easy to read display of measurements. It is highly sensitive yet lightweight and rugged. Applications include the identification of areas of high levels of respirable dust and evaluating dust generation and suppression.

HAZ-DUST I Particulate Monitor
HAZ-DUST I on construction site
  • Easy operation and instantaneous readings in mg/m3
  • Two selectable measuring ranges
  • Easy to read digital display
  • Highly sensitive
  • Operates for over 8 hours
  • Built-in battery test facility
  • Optional data logger, supplied with DustComm Pro Software for data downloading, trend analysis and comprehensive reporting of concentration changes over time
  • Optional tripod with adjustable mounting for unattended monitoring

The HAZ-DUST I uses near-forward light scattering to measure dust concentration. As airborne particles enter the instrument they pass through an infra-red light beam and scatter the light. The amount of light that reaches the detector is directly proportional to the aerosol concentration.
