AEROSOL AND DUST MONITORING SPECIALISTS
Understanding worker exposure to dangerous elements in work environments requires data. TSI’s aerosol and dust exposure monitoring solutions allow industrial hygienists and occupational health and safety professionals to capture critical exposure informa- tion needed to ensure worker safety. Collecting exposure data in the moment—as opposed to days, weeks, or months later—improves worker safety on the job and reduces risk to companies. Our latest innovation, the SidePakTM AM520i Personal Aerosol Monitor is designed to be intrinsically safe for use in explosive environments.
Protecting workers is TSI’s top priority. We’re the industry leader in supplying real- time, direct-reading aerosol monitoring instrumentation. We recognize that gravimet- ric sampling, however necessary, can only give you a snapshot—a single data point averaged throughout an entire work shift.
Our experts recognize the need for more portable, intuitive aerosol monitors. This allows immediate access to exposure data to drive immediate corrective action—no more waiting for lab results. Real-time data measures worker risk happening in the moment at the worker level, on the person, and in the worker breathing zone. This is essential in keeping workers safe and involves less risk for the companies.
Our SidePak AM520 and AM520i (intrinsically safe) Personal Aerosol Monitors mea- sure worker exposure to respirable dust, silica and diesel particulate matter (DPM), including PM10, PM4 (Respirable), PM2.5, PM1, and 0.8 μm DPM. Designed to take measurements from the worker breathing zone, they are the industry’s most versa- tile, lightweight personal aerosol monitors.
