Particle counter, PCE-PCO 2, PCE Instruments

This is a portable handheld 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 formaldehyde 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.
