Pollutant measuring devices to precisely measure pollutants in the home or at the workplace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once you have decided which (harmful) substances are to be measured, the next step is to select suitable pollutant measuring devices<\/strong>. In order to find a suitable measuring device, further criteria must be taken into account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This includes the location of the pollutant measuring devices (stationary or portable)<\/strong>, the required explosion protection<\/strong> and the desired nominal volume flow<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

To make selection easier, we have created a graphic<\/strong> that records and compares our measuring devices<\/strong>. Based on this overview, you can use the desired parameters to select a measuring device<\/strong> can be selected. <\/p>\n\n\n

Which pollutants can be measured with measuring devices?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Before deciding on a pollutant measuring device<\/strong>, you need to know which substance is to be measured.
Primarily particles in the air are measured, for example dust<\/a>. As such a measurement is usually taken at the workplace, it is primarily used to check and ensure occupational health and safety. Of course, measurements can also be taken in other areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Various factors are relevant for the significance of a measurement to measure pollutants in the home<\/strong>. The working environment, the substances used and the production route are some of these factors. The measurement should be adapted to these conditions in the best possible way.
For example, in a bottling plant for solids, particle measurements of dust fractions<\/strong> such as E-dust <\/strong>and A-dust<\/strong> at breathing height make sense. The respective occupational health and safety regulations, which must be observed, are decisive for a specific selection. We have summarised further information on the topic of occupational health and safety<\/a> in a blog post.
