GSA measuring device SG10-2A: Measure dust exposure at the workplace

Strict limit values for permissible dust exposure apply to occupational safety in environments with dusts. This is particularly important for checking dust exposure at the workplace in order to avoid health hazards.

The GSA measuring device SG10-2A enables the measurement of dusts and other hazardous substances up to 10 l/min in accordance with EN 481.

The occupational limit values describe the maximum permitted exposure to a substance at the workplace. This is based on regular contact over a 40-hour working week (5 days of 8 hours each). Important safety measures at the workplace can be derived from the results obtained.

Cyclone in GSA measuring device FSP2 for dust measurement

24. February 20256. May 2020 by s.abels

GSA ‘s FSP2 personal sampling system is equipped with a cyclone. This is a licensed sampling system that is used, for example, for particle measurements of dust fractions of A-dust or E-dust at the workplace in order to determine the dust load there.

Measuring dust exposure at the workplace is always useful when occupational limit values must be complied with.

Particulate matter pollution New Year's Eve

The media can no longer imagine life without particulate matter pollution, but what is it and how dangerous is it for us? The debate flares up again on New Year’s Eve: does this mean the end of rockets and firecrackers?

Measuring wood dust – minimizing health risks

Wood dust measurement for risk assessment at the workplace

Wood dust is classified as E-dust and poses a great risk of the particles settling in the lungs or affecting other parts of the body. For wood dust measurement and particle measurement of the dust fraction of E-dust, we recommend our measuring device SG10-2A for stationary measurement or the SG5100ex and SG5200 devices for personal measurement.

With regard to a wood dust explosion, we recommend our SG5100ex measuring device, as it has been specially developed for potentially explosive atmospheres.

Measuring quartz dust – Occupational safety

Measuring quartz dust with GSA PM4-2 and SG10-2 measuring devices

If quartz dust is present at the workplace, measures such as measuring quartz dust are a sensible occupational health and safety measure.

We offer two systems for this purpose: Firstly, the measuring device PM4-2 with A-dust head for stationary measurement and the measuring devices SG10-2 with fine dust sampling system 10 (according to IFA) for personal measurement at the workplace.

SG10-2A and PM4-2 particulate matter meters measure particulate matter pollution

Asbestos measurement – important for detecting potential health hazards

If the asbestos measurement and analysis by the GSA has shown that it is indeed asbestos, all work and measures should be carried out by specialist companies. The employees are trained in the field of fibre measurements of asbestos fibers and know the necessary safety measures and disposal regulations (you can find more on this topic in our article on “Asbestos measurement and analysis of asbestos”.

PM4-2 dust sampling system measures PCBs
