New flexible options for dust and aerosol monitoring

Ashtead Technology’s comprehensive range of portable dust and aerosol monitors is now available in a variety of flexible rent or purchase schemes. “Our objective is to offer the best solution for every monitoring need,” says Regional Sales Manager, Josh Thomas. “Instrument choice is affected by a number of factors such as the application and the target measurement parameters. As an authorised TSI distributor, we can offer short and long-term rental options in addition to outright purchase, providing customers with a flexible solution to meet their requirements.” The instrument range includes the TSI DustTrak DRX, which is available as desktop and handheld models. Measuring aerosol contaminants such as dust, smoke, fumes and mists, the DustTrak DRX has a particle size range 0.1 to 15μm and can measure both mass and size fraction. The Q-TRAK 7575 Indoor Air Quality Monitor, the SidePak AM510 Personal Aerosol Monitor, the TSI 4146 Sampling Pump and the TSI Portacount 8038 are also available from Ashtead Technology. The instruments can be used for a range of applications, including air sampling and dust monitoring where accuracy and reliability are key. For example, they are commonly employed for occupational hygiene surveys and for both indoor and outdoor air quality assessments. Certain instruments from the range are also used to monitor emissions from industrial processes, in research, and to conduct fit-testing for respirators. The choice of instrument is often dictated by the type and size of the target particles. However, some of the instruments are also able to measure other parameters such as VOCs, CO2, CO, temperature and humidity. As a result of Ashtead’s continual investment in the latest technology, the equipment is normally available from stock. Summarising Josh says: “Through discussion with our customers, we aim to provide the ideal instrument for every application, ensuring they get the most accurate and relevant data. The flexibility to offer rental and purchase options for a range of dust and aerosol monitoring instruments means that customers minimise costs by choosing the solution that’s right for them.”
