PCE PCO 1 Laser Partical Counter Air Sampler

PCE PCO 1 Laser Partical Counter Air Sampler

Highlights:

• Handheld.
• Laser particle counter.
  
• Great for monitoring clean room particulate concentrations, indoor air quality and exposure to dust

The PCE PCO 1 Laser Particle Counter Air Sampler is designed to measure the concentration of particles in the air. It is perfect for monitoring clean rooms, indoor air quality, exposure to exhaust fumes, tobacco or cigarette smoke, and other harmful air pollutants, as well as airborne dust levels. Cigarette smoke particles are primarily distributed within the size range of 0.1 to 1.0 micron.

A variety of materials are flammable in dust form. Some examples include: food (e.g., candy, sugar, spice, starch, flour and feed), grain, tobacco, plastics, wood, paper, pulp, rubber, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, dyes, coal and metals (e.g., aluminum, chromium, iron, magnesium and zinc). These materials are used in agriculture, chemical manufacturing, pharmaceutical production, furniture, textiles, fossil fuel power generation, recycling operations, metal working and processing (including additive manufacturing and 3D printing) and many other industries and processes.

In addition to being a combustion hazard, certain kinds of dust can be a health hazard. Exposure (such as skin contact, eye contact and inhalation) can be linked to sneezing, a stuffy or runny nose, itchy or red eyes, headaches, fatigue, fever, cough, shortness of breath, dermatitis, asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia (e.g., Legionnaires’ disease and hypersensitivity pneumonitis) and cancer.
