PCE-PCO 2 Air Quality Particle Counting Meter
Portable handheld device for monitoring particulate matter (PM) concentrations in the air / 0.3 µm, 0.5 µm, 1.0 µm, 2.5 µm, 5.0 µm and 10 µm particle sizes, Measures air temperature, dew point and relative humidity

This is a portable handheld air quality particle counting meter or particle counter used to monitor particulate matter (PM) concentrations in the air. Designed to aid in indoor air quality (IAQ) assessments, this particle counter also measures air temperature, dew point and relative humidity.

The particle counter is ideal for monitoring clean rooms, exposure to exhaust, smoke and other harmful air pollutants, and levels of airborne combustible dust such as agricultural dust, carbonaceous dust, chemical dust, metal dust, plastic dust and wood dust.

A variety of materials are explosive 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.

When inhaled, PM 2.5 and PM 10 particles can settle deep into the lungs and result in damaging health effects. Since the PCE-PCO 2 particle counter monitors PM 2.5 and PM 10 particles, the device has many practical health and safety applications. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) technicians use PM 2.5 and PM 10 particle counters for HVAC system performance and filtration audits. In addition, industrial hygienists and workplace safety professionals rely on PM 2.5 and PM 10 particle counters when evaluating occupational health and safety risks related to hazardous and combustible dust.

Air Quality Particle Counting Meter

How to choose the best device for counting the air quality particles?

There are many air-quality particle counters available in the market. But it would be best if you chose wisely to suit your needs. So, here are some factors that can help to choose the right device-

• Identify your needs. And think about what kind of particles you need to measure. 
• Another factor is particle size. So, ensure the device can detect the particle size you need to monitor.
• Check the ISO classes. There are different ISO classes for workplaces, clean rooms, industrial facilities, etc.
• Also, confirm whether the device can measure particulate matter in certain areas or locations.

After recognizing your needs, find a reliable provider to offer your needs. At ADK Instruments, you can find the best air-quality particle counters.

What are the uses of air quality particle counting meters?

PCE-PCO 2 Air quality particle counting meter is a handheld device. And this device helps to monitor the particulate matter concentrations in the air.
