Real Time Dust Monitors

The accumulation of dust particles, in particular, the smaller particles (less than 2.5 micrometres in aerodynamic diameter or PM2.5) generated from different activities such as construction, mining, drilling, tunnelling, bulk earthworks and other industrial processes can become a major health hazard, often causing irritation to the eyes, nose, throat and potentially causing long-term respiratory and cardiovascular issues. These smaller particles also include microorganisms like pollen spores and fungi, as well as bacteria and viruses.

Dust monitoring is required to be carried out in accordance with the relevant industry standards and regulations to assess the air quality and quantify the amount of dust generated at the site in order to establish a dust control and monitoring program to minimise risks to personnel working at the site and to ensure conditions are safe.

Portable Dust Monitors and Continuous Dust Monitoring Stations

Air-Met’s range of real-time dust monitoring solutions includes portable particulate monitors and continuous dust monitoring stations.

Portable particulate monitors such as the TSI DustTrak and the Aeroqual PM10/PM2.5 Portable Particulate Monitor are ideal for spot checks and indoor surveys while environmental dust monitoring stations such as the AirMetER-DX Particle Counter and the Aeroqual Dust Monitoring Station range are more suited to long-term continuous dust monitoring and compliance monitoring.

Dust monitoring stations also provide the added benefit of remote real-time monitoring, allowing users to access decision making critical data via a web portal.
