Fibre measurements of asbestos fibres are used to identify dangerous fibers that are harmful to health in order to prevent dangerous health effects. For example, asbestos fibres can cause lung cancer. The GSA Messgerätebau has a selection of measuring devices such as the measuring device SG12 to detect and measure asbestos fiber occurrences.
The amount of dust and particulate matter in the air can be measured, for example with our measuring device SG10-2 or the PM4-2 measuring devices. Our partner GSA Gesellschaft für Schadstoffanalytik can determine the individual components of the dust sample using the so-called dust swab sample. Typically, textile fibers, dander, hair and pollen are found in the household. Flower pollen in particular can trigger symptoms and have a negative impact on (existing) allergies.
We offer a wide range of pollutants measuring devices for measuring of harmful substances. We have put together an infographic to help you find the right pollutant measuring device for your requirements.
In the following graphic, our measuring devices are listed side by side and structured according to various features.
If a risk assessment is available and a potential danger to the employee can be identified, the employer is obliged to take suitable protective measures. To do this, it is advisable to first measure the concentration of the respective substance at the workplace using a pollutants measuring device.
In the field of measurement technology, GSA is the point of contact for the use of measuring devices. For example, our measuring device SG12 is ideally suited for carrying out fibre measurements of asbestos fibers. Our partner, GSA Ratingen, offers the possibility of carrying out measurements on your behalf. For further information, please contact GSA Gesellschaft für Schadstoffanalytik.
As a competent partner in the field of occupational health and safety, we can provide you with comprehensive advice and, with our GSA measuring devices for hazardous substance measurement, we can check the protective measures.
An air sample in the work area provides information on the effectiveness of the occupational safety measures for hazardous substance measurement. Based on the results, we can work with you to revise and improve the existing concept.
GSA Schadstoffanalytik mbH is a long-standing partner of the GSA Messgerätebau GmbH which specializes in pollutant analysis.
The close cooperation is not only reflected in the physical proximity, but also in the complementary working skills.
The fibre measurements of asbestos fibers are particularly important in the run-up to renovation work, the corresponding regulation can be found in TRGS 519. Our SG12 measuring device is ideally suited for the fibre measurements of asbestos fibers, as it can measure fibers according to VDI 3492, especially if high volume flows are required for measurement.
As a partner in occupational health and safety, we offer measuring devices that are ideal for measuring the particle fraction A-dust. For example, the measuring device SG10-2 is a good choice for particle measurements of the dust fraction.
