In order to measure the highly infectious new coronavirus variant Omikron in the breath and for the possible detection of other viruses, we offer the new Vira-Pore sampling cassette, we offer a precise coronavirus air sampling is available. Available from our online store, the Vira-Pore sampling cassette available from our online shop can be used in conjunction with one of the GSA measuring devices SG10-2, SG10-2A and SG12.
SG12
Asbestos measurement – with SG12
The GSA measuring devices SG12 is specially designed for measuring asbestos and for sampling inorganic fibrous particles such as KMF in accordance with VDI 3492 and ISO 14966. According to VDI 3492, eight hours are sufficient for sampling. According to DGUV 213-546, measurement at the workplace is possible in two hours. The SG12 can be used stationary for fiber measurements of asbestos fibers as well as for particle measurements of the dust fractions A-dust and E-dust.
Measure indoor air pollutants according to VDI 3492 with SG12 and sampling head
VDI 3492 – VDI guideline for the determination of indoor air pollutants
VDI 3492 is one of numerous VDI guidelines drawn up by the VDI (Association of German Engineers). They contain trend-setting rules and recommendations for the state of the art and for science. They are relevant for daily practice.
Delta virus on the rise – efficiently measuring coronaviruses with Vira-Pore in the air
The ECDC (European Center for Disease Prevention and Control) assumes that ninety percent of all new coronavirus infections within the European Union and the countries of Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein will be attributable to the “delta variant” by the end of August 2021 .
Surgical masks and FFP2 masks – protective effects against corona infections
Nationwide obligation to wear special masks
Since Monday, 25.01.2021, it has been mandatory to wear only surgical masks or FFP2 masks when shopping in stores and on public transport. The latter are increasingly in demand due to their better filtering properties against coronavirus infection.
Coronavirus air sampling indoors with the Vira-Pore virus sampling cassette
In the acute pandemic situation with a further increase in corona cases, we offer the new Vira-Pore virus sampling cassette for air measurement of coronaviruses in indoor air for laboratory testing.
Asbestos situation 2020 – facts from “National Asbestos Profile Germany”
Current study on the asbestos situation in Germany
In June 2020, the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (Baua) published the “National Asbestos Profile Germany” for the second time. The national asbestos situation in Germany is explained in over 70 informative pages.
Measuring of harmful substances during renovations
Measuring of harmful substances during remediation measures
In many houses, extensive refurbishment measures are only required after many years, for example, when old plaster is knocked off or old tiles or electrical cables are removed. In order to find out whether pollutants are hidden in the old building components, measurements of harmful substances such as asbestos measurements are useful.
Asbestos measurement often necessary
Asbestos measurement for suspected asbestos fibers
If there is a suspected risk from asbestos fibers, fibre measurements must be carried out. Such fibre measurements for asbestos fibres can be carried out using our SG12 measuring devices for asbestos measurement.
Fibre measurements of asbestos fibers
Fiber measurements of asbestos fibers with GSA measuring devices SG12
Our SG12 measuring device can be used to carry out fibre measurements in the event of potential health risks from asbestos. The measuring device SG12 is suitable for fibre measurements of asbestos fibers indoors.
If exposure to asbestos fibers is suspected, an expert asbestos test is an advantage. We will be happy to answer any further questions you may have.
