Particle Counter PCE-PCO 1

Description

The PCE-PCO 1 is a handheld laser particle counter designed for assessing airborne particulate concentrations. This instrument functions as a portable air sampler and dust measuring device, suitable for a range of environmental monitoring applications. It is commonly used to evaluate conditions in clean rooms, check indoor air quality, and measure exposure to various pollutants such as vehicle exhaust, tobacco smoke, and industrial dust. The device is capable of detecting particles as small as those commonly found in cigarette smoke, which typically range from 0.1 to 1.0 microns in size. Its operational temperature range is from 32 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit. The compact design, measuring 9.4 by 4.3 by 2.4 inches, facilitates easy transport and use in diverse settings. Monitoring is critical in industries where combustible dusts are present, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, woodworking, and metal fabrication, as these materials can pose explosion risks when airborne.
