Validair launches TSI airborne particle counters

Malvern-based Validair Monitoring Solutions Ltd (VMSL) has introduced two new ranges of highly advanced remote airborne particle counters (APCs), featuring state-of-the-art laser technology from TSI.

The new ranges comprise innovative models in the AeroTrak+ 6000 Series and AeroTrak+ 7000 Series, comprising APCs with integrated vacuum pumps and more
traditional APCs for use with external vacuum systems respectively.

Models in the new AeroTrak+ APC families offer measurement capabilities for particles from 0.2μm to 25μm in size, using laser technology, and all deliver reliable second‐by‐second sampling to eliminate the need to wait for critical data. In turn, this instant proactive identification and earlywarning functionality of adverse trends lets manufacturers reduce waste and maximise yields across an array of demanding environments that include pharmaceutical, semiconductor, electronics and industrial sectors.

“Cost and risk are key factors in selecting the optimum remote airborne particle monitor,” explained Deborah Haisman, Commercial Director at Validair. “The new AeroTrak+ ranges address these issues in many inventive ways. With its internal pump, the APC 6000 Series presents the ideal solution where external vacuum is not available and where retrofitting a clean facility is not viable, offering tremendous cost savings. All models also include a 250k data buffer for peace of mind and continuity of compliance should a network fail.”

“For manufacturers in clean environments whose operations require or mandate no interruptions, no data loss, easy no‐hassle compliance and simple installation for complete facility monitoring, the new AeroTrak+ ranges are ideal,” said Haisman. “Both new Aerotrak+ families offer a compact  footprint and robust stainless‐steel construction, with the extra advantage of easy relocation as production layouts or locations change with the innovative AeroTrak+ 6000 Series, thanks to its
integrated pump technology.”

AeroTrak+ 6000 Series and 7000 Series models feature rapid setup and configuration via standard USB‐C connectivity, sealed inlets to prevent accidental ingress, power over ethernet (PoE) or lowvoltage DC power options and advanced FMS drivers to auto‐discover sensors and reduce integration time.
