Schedule it on a PC!
Combine AirChek 2000, your PC, and DataTrac 2000 Software to easily create single
or multiple sampling schedules that include delayed start, timed shutdown,
and sequential
sampling. Alternatively , a single schedule can be set manually using the pump’s
large integral keypad.
Sample and record it!
Start sampling with the click of a mouse or the press of a button. A patented
(U.S. Patent No. 5,892,160)
internal flow sensor acts as a secondary standard to accurately maintain set
flow. AirChek 2000 records flow rate, run time, sample volume, and flow fault
throughout
the
sampling period. View values on a PC in pump history or during sampling on the
pump LCD.
Download and report it!
Use your PC and DataTrac 2000 Software to download pump history, import data into your favorite software for IH lab reporting, or create a worker exposure profile for complete reporting.
CalChek it!
The CalChek feature provides direct communication between an AirChek 2000 pump
and a Defender primary standard calibrator. This results in highly accurate single-point
calibration for pre and post-sampling and complete multiple-point calibration
following pump maintenance.
Partner the AirChek 2000 pump and CalChek with your PC and DataTrac 2000 Software
for documented results of
calibration for ISO 9000, Total Quality Management programs, and occupational
health and safety management systems.
Patented* isothermal flow control
system
Accurate internal flow sensor measures flow directly and acts as a secondary
standard to maintain set flow with an accuracy of ± 5%. Thermal and pressure
sensors maintain
flow
calibration
by compensating for differences between the temperature and atmospheric pressure
at calibration and those
during sampling.
* US Patent No. 5,892,160
Longer run times
With NiMH battery pack, run time is 12+ hours at 2000 ml/min and up to 30 inches
water
back pressure; dependent on sample media used
Battery status display
Indicates battery power available
to operate pump
Wide flow range — 5 to 3250 ml/min
AirChek 2000 is the best choice for many sampling applications.
Low flow capability
With the easy-to-use low flow adapter kit, achieve flows from 5 to 500 ml/min (low flow does not include some electronic readout options).
Easy PC programmability
Combine AirChek 2000 and a PC with DataTrac 2000 Software to easily create
multiple sampling schedules that include delayed start, timed shutdown, and
sequential sampling or download sampling data to a PC
for storage and analysis.
Compact, lightweight, and ultra-quiet
For greater worker acceptance
Intrinsic safety
Versatile for all industries and safe in explosive environments; UL and cUL Listed
Continuous sample volume calculations
Flow-rate, run time, volume, and flow fault are continuously recorded for
accurate sample reporting.
RFI/EMI-shielded, impact-resistant case
Ensures accurate air volumes and data validity; covers protect battery charging
jack and computer interface port; CE marked
Security system protects data
A security code minimizes accidental changes and maintains sample validity.
Multiple-tube sampling feature
Save valuable time with simultaneous 2, 3, or 4-tube sampling
Protective features
Auto shut-off at low battery; automatic flow fault shutdown and restart


Fast, simple, and accurate calibration
No timers, soap film, or delicate equipment needed. The tough Defender calibrator
with built in DryCal technology provides an automatic, accurate flow rate
average that you can count on.
No manual adjustments
The CalChek feature provides direct communication between the AirChek 2000
Sample Pump and the Defender calibrator. No user intervention is needed. Simply
set up the calibration train and push a button to start automatic calibration.
CalChek — two calibration options
With CalChek, quickly calibrate flow at a single point before and verify flow after sampling or calibrate the pump across a range of flows following repair and maintenance to ensure optimum pump performance.
Complete documentation of calibration for ISO 9000, TQM programs, and OHS management systems
CalChek, used with DataTrac Software, allows the user to download data to a PC and generate printed reports for complete documentation.
The SKC AirChek 2000 pump, Windows-based DataTrac
2000 Software, and your
PC are an unbeatable combination for creating multiple sampling schedules
that include delayed start, timed shutdown, and sequential sampling and a
complete documentation of sampling history.

With
DataTrac 2000:
Large easy-to-read LCD![]() |
Continuously updated sampling data displays on the AirChek 2000 large LCD. With the press of a single button, scroll through flow rate, air volume, run time, temperature, atmospheric pressure, battery status, time of day, and flow fault. A battery status icon constantly displays and a flow fault icon flashes during restricted or blocked flow. A flashing LED on top of the pump indicates the pump is running in low-light or loud environments. |
| Easy Manual Programming It’s right on the front of the pump. Set flow rate and run time without screwdrivers; simply use the 3-button keypad. A convenient timed shutdown feature allows you to program the AirChek 2000 to run for a set time from 1 to 999 minutes, a very useful feature for STELs or repetitive sample runs. |

AirChek 2000 Run Time in Hours with NiMH Battery
Following are typical run times achieved when using a fully charged nickel-metal
hydride (NiMH) battery pack. Data is sorted by type of sample media. All run
times are listed in hours. Results are obtained using a new pump and new fully
charged battery. Pump performance may vary.

| Compensation Range |
3000 ml/min at 15 inches water back pressure 2000 ml/min at 30 inches water back pressure 1000 ml/min at 30 inches water back pressure |
| Flow fault |
If the pump is unable to compensate for longer than 15 seconds due to excessive back pressure, the pump enters flow fault mode. During flow fault, the pump enters Hold, the fault icon appears on the display during the length of the fault, and the accumulated run time display is frozen and retained. After 5 minutes in flow fault, auto-restart is attempted every 5 minutes up to 10 times. |
