The portable AIR-AIDE Airborne Particulate Monitor is a fixed-point monitor to survey dust levels. AIR-AIDE is ideal for indoor air quality investigations and as a tool for compliance monitoring. With the 10-hour NiMH battery, AIR-AIDE can sample for a full day. For extended monitoring, run AIR-AIDE from AC power using the supplied charger/adapter. Results are displayed immediately or can be stored in memory. At the end of monitoring, download data to a PC. Supplied DustComm Pro Software allows for graphical and statistical representation of the total dust generating process.
