Nanozen DustCount 9000 Personal Dust Monitor
A lightweight, wearable real-time personal dust monitor for silica, coal, metal and wood dust monitoring.
Nanozen DustCount 9000 Personal Dust Monitor Overview
The DustCount 9000 Personal Dust Monitor is a lightweight, direct-reading Optical Particle Counter designed for silica, coal, metal or wood dust sampling. Compact, lightweight and easy to wear, the DustCount 9000 features a range of benefits including enhancements to the audible and visual alarm, configurable start/end of shift, even longer battery run time and alarms for STEL, TWA and Ceiling. The Nanozen DustCount 9000 is IECEx certified for intrinsic safety.
The DustCount 9000 combines the advantages of real-time dust monitoring, a built-in filter cassette for sample composition analysis and HSE 4.0 networking for efficient dust monitoring, helping companies dramatically reduce their lab analysis costs. The DustCount 9000 supports interchangeable impactors for PM2.5, PM4, and PM10.
Accurate real-time personal dust monitoring will help in shaving days and weeks off assessment and remediation time. Occupational hygienists have used the DustCount 9000 real-time data, and filter analysis results, to graphically demonstrate dangerous areas of aerosol exposure to workers, verify if mitigation systems and processes are working effectively and lower costs by focusing on problem areas identified by real-time accurate air measurements.
The Nanozen DustCount 9000 Wearable Dust Monitor is available exclusively from Air-Met Scientific for sale and hire. Air-Met Scientific is also the exclusive authorised Nanozen Service Centre in Australia for DustCount calibrations.

Nanozen DustCount 9000 Features
- Lightweight - The Nanozen DustCount 9000 real-time dust monitor weighs only 0.5kg, 4 X 5 inches clips on belt or vest pocket.
- Optical Particle Counter Technology - Optical Particle Counter (OPC) technology gives real-time particle count and particle size distribution data.
- Real-Time Data Collection - USB or Bluetooth interfaces allows management control and data capture from a PC or MAC. The DustCount 9000 enables hygienists to use its real-time mass concentration, particle concentration, and size distribution data to determine whether a worker is being exposed to dangerous levels of particulate
- Self-adjusting air flow rate, no user action required.
- Maintenance alerts for filter and impactor congestion
- Impactors in-unit means a cyclone is not required.
- Local service and calibration by Air-Met Scientific.
