DustCheck®
is the most comprehensive air contamination monitoring system available today.
DustCheck® measures more air contamination properties than any other
system, including:

Volume |
This is the
total volume of air particulate and an important indicator of air
cleanliness. |

Particles
where the length of the minor axis is smaller than 10 microns. |
smoke, glass
fibers, asbestos, exhaust fumes. |
|
Fibers |
|

zinc whiskers, tin whiskers, asbestos, textiles, hair |
|
Biological |
Total volume
of biological particles. |
bacteria,
mold, spores |
| VOC |
VOC (volatile
organic compounds) contained in particles. |

preservatives, cleaning chemicals, solvents,
Toxic industrial
chemicals (TICs) and chemical warfare agents (CWAs).
|
|
Radioactivity |
Total amount

How DustCheck® works:
Calibrated
samplers, collect air particles from the ambient air using
electrostatic attraction. Samplers are
analyzed in our state of the art laboratory in Zurich, Switzerland.
Test reports are securely and anonymously downloaded from our
website using the ID and Password provided.
You are alerted to
air contamination by comparing your test results to the following
benchmarks:
1) Normal Range (based on
average test results from the
DustCheck® data-base).
2) Earlier test results
from the same sampling location.
3) Test results from other
sampling locations at your facility.
The DustCheck®
test report* shows the average daily index of specific air particle
parameters:
Sampler ID: 223223
Test Period (ddmmyy): 07.05.07 - 09.10.07
Normal Range: GENERAL
