NEW! TUFF Personal Air Sampling Pumps with Extended Run NiMH Batteries

The compact TUFF sampling pumps are designed for harsh environments and incorporate true volumetric flow control circuitry to provide precise control over sample rates/volumes. Two flow rate options: 500-3000 ml/m with TUFF 3 units and 500-4500 ml/m using TUFF 4 models. With the addition of a low-flow adapter flow rates as low as 5 ml/min are possible.

• TUFF Standard: simple manual control air monitoring
• TUFF Plus: fixed duration sampling
• TUFF Pro: advanced programming features

Power for the TUFF pumps is provided by one of two optional rechargeable 4.8V NiMH battery packs - the standard capacity 1.7Ah battery pack for use when light weight is more important than extreme run time or the extended-run 2.7Ah battery pack which provides up to 34 hours of run time.

Apex Lite Non-IS Personal Sampling Pumps

The Casella Apex Lite personal sampling pumps are low cost starter pumps with thicker windows to minimize accidental damage to the display. The pumps have flow rates from 800 to 5000 ml/min and 5 to 750 ml/min using a low flow adapter. Apex Lite pumps are available in standard and programmable versions and have up to 45 hour run times at 2 L/min with a 25 mm GFA filter. This represents a full week of full day sampling from the same set of batteries. The pumps are supplied with a one time alkaline battery pack for infrequent use, which can be easily upgraded to NiMH rechargeable batteries.

Microdust Pro Particulate Monitor

The Microdust Pro is a portable, real time monitor for assessing the concentration of suspended particulate matter over a wide dynamic range from 1µgm-3 to 2500 mgm-3.. The Microdust Pro can be set to analyze total suspended particulates, PM10, or PM2.5. The logging interval can be set from 2 seconds to 10 minutes, and the memory can datalog >15,700 data points. It is the only hand­held real-time dust monitor capable of graphically presenting variations in dust concentration on a real time scrolling graph – no longer is it necessary to wait to analyze results on a PC.

Casella WBGT Real-Time Heat Stress Monitor

The WBGT real-time heat stress meter measures and datalogs wet bulb, dry bulb and globe temperatures simultaneously from three PRTD sensors.  The meter automatically calculates the heat stress level in the work environment using the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature  Index and logs that value for both indoor and outdoor work environments. 

Both the meter and the sensor unit have tripod sockets for ease of use.  The sensors can be mounted directly onto the body of the instrument or remotely positioned using a 30 ft cable. The WBGT has built-in audible & visual alarms for RH%, dewpoint and wet bulb reservoir water levels.
