Mold is often found after renovation work and can pose a health risk. Depending on the mold infestation and health sensitivity, allergic reactions or infections can be triggered. The formation should therefore be treated professionally without delay. In order to localize the spread and concentration, it is advisable to take samples with the GSA measuring devices SG5200 to measure the mould.
SG5200
Indoor air measurement of formaldehyde with SG5200
Indoor air measurement of formaldehyde can be carried out precisely with the GSA measuring devices SG5200. Due to the health hazards of formaldehyde, it is recommended to measure indoor air with the SG5200 if there is any suspicion. In the event of outgassing, formaldehyde has potentially harmful effects on the human body.
Exposure to formaldehyde emissions has increased significantly in recent decades, as solid wood furniture, which is no longer harmless to health, no longer dominates interior design. The wood-based materials used are often chipboard with different coatings. Many modern furnishings are largely made of chipboard with a veneered or laminate surface. Formaldehyde often escapes from this furniture, especially in areas where the surface is damaged.
Measuring of harmful substances at the workplace
The Gesellschaft für Schadstoffanalytik has been a competent partner in the field of measuring harmful substances at the workplace for decades.
As we have carried out numerous measurements and analyses in the company for possible measurements of harmful substances, we have a direct insight into what our measurement technicians need.
Dust particle measurement using GSA device SG10-2A
Dust particle measurement for fine dust
The SG10-2A can be used to measure dust particles very precisely, taking into account the respective size specification of the “aerodynamic diameter”. With the measuring device SG10-2A, samples of hazardous substances up to 10 l/min according to EN 481 – both stationary and stationary – can be measured. as well as personal use.
Mold measurement with SG5200
The measuring device SG5200 is ideal for mold measurement as well as for samples of dust fractions such as A-dust and E-dust, gases, fumes or fibers. There is a particular risk of mold during the warmer months of the year.
GSA room air measuring devices detect solvents
GSA SG350ex, SGS5200 and SG5100ex room air measuring devices for sampling solvents
GSA indoor air measuring devices reliably detect the presence and harmful quantities of solvents in the home. If, for example, an unpleasant odor develops in the course of new furniture or other furnishings, or if symptoms only occur in one room, there may be solvent pollution.
The GSA measuring device SG350ex is particularly suitable when it comes to escaping gases. These room air measuring devices therefore provide more information about the gases present in the room under investigation.
