The new portable AeroTrak®+ airborne particle counters of the A100 series are suitable for cleanroom certification, process monitoring, as well as gas and filter testing across all industries.

With the even more compact and lightweight A100, up to 6 particle sizes can be measured simultaneously, with…

Anyone who controls particles in cleanrooms is familiar with ISO 14644. The best-known part is ISO 14644-1, which is relevant for classification. Far less well known is part -9, which deals with particles on surfaces. It deals with the surfaces of walls, ceilings, floors, work areas, tools and produ…

Test and standard particles have become indispensable in many areas of technology in recent years. Their range of applications includes, for example, validation of technical cleanliness, tests on the short-circuit behavior of electronic components, or the behavior of particulate contaminants in flui…

Brand new in the SenseAnywhere data logger series are the intelligent input modules for voltage and current - small connectors with great potential. In industrial automation technology and with pressure sensors, the current signal 4-20 mA and the voltage signal 0-10 V are the most commonly used sign…

Introduction

As environmental system designers, we are often asked where to place sample points for particle monitoring, whether it be performed in a pharmaceutical cleanroom or clean device (RABS, isolator, etc.).

The answer is not always straightforward. There are several guidance documents that of…

Researchers at the University of Bayreuth want to find out the consequences of inhaled microplastics. In order to better understand them, they have conducted an interdisciplinary study to find out how the health risks of particles such as soot, grinding dust or asbestos are related to their physical…
