A Simple Guide To How Aerosol Particle Counters Work
When measuring very small quantities of anything, it is important to understand the operational technology, its benefits and its limitations. No measurement is absolute, all is relative to the measuring technique employed. For example, if particles are measured by a technology other than laser, such as a scanning electron microscope, we would not be surprised to get slightly different results. We might even get quite different results at certain sizes because the microscope technology is producing a response which differs from that produced by the particle counter.

In AMC Monitoring, Simple Designs Go a Long Way
Over the past several years, different sensor and detection technologies have been adapting themselves by increasing their complexity in order to meet the requirements needed for effective (Airborne Molecular Contamination) AMC monitoring. Complex designs only add to the uncertainty in the measurement by introducing opportunity for the sample to be altered prior to detection, or by creating potential hardware failure points which require regular preventative maintenance. For AMC monitoring equipment, the principle of Occam’s razor appears to ring true – "All other things being equal, the simplest solution is best." Continue to learn more... |

SERVICE SCHEDULING TO REDUCE TURNAROUND TIME
 |
To keep your instrument working on your site longer, we now provide service and calibration scheduling. This allows you to use your instrument up to a pre-arranged date prior to sending it in for service. Turnaround times for annual calibrations can be reduced to one week when service work is scheduled at least three weeks in advance.
Call Customer Service at (800) 557-6363 to schedule your service work.
