The inhalation of hazardous substances at the workplace and in other areas can lead to damage to health and even serious cancer in the event of prolonged exposure. Clear occupational health and safety regulations are in place to protect health and prevent possible illnesses caused by inhaling hazardous substances.
Nanoparticles are particles with a size (height, width or length) of 1 to 100 nm (nanometers). To clarify the size: A nanometer is one millionth of a millimeter.
“Nano” is derived from the Greek term nanos and means dwarf. This refers to the small size of the particles.
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.
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
Our devices for hazardous substance measurement in potentially explosive atmospheres, such as the measuring device SG350ex works according to this principle. All devices that feature explosion protection are certified in accordance with European Directive 94/9/EC.
