Sensitivity range: 0.3 – 25 µm
Cleanroom particle counter meets the requirements of EU GMP Annex 1, ISO 14644-1:2015, and ISO 21501-4.
The Lasair® III Cleanroom Particle Counter is designed with your unique needs in mind. It sets the standard for portable aerosol particle counters in highly regulated environments, so you can make sure your environment is clean.
It can be used for both remote and mobile routine cleanroom monitoring. We know the requirements and we’ve done the calculations for you; cleanroom certification results are available through a local printout, downloadable via USB
in a secure format, or through the use of external software packages, such as DataAnalyst, FacilityNet, or FacilityNet Pharma Software.
Power is provided to the unit through the use of onboard, hot-swappable batteries. Power can also be provided through the use of an external AC power source, which can simultaneously power the unit and charge the onboard batteries.
The Lasair III Cleanroom Particle Counter accepts inputs from a wide range of environmental sensors through the four built-in 4-20 mA inputs. Wireless network communications are made easy with an externally mounted wireless adapter, simplifying communications with network systems.
Find the best particle counter for your application by using Particle Measuring Systems’ (PMS) particle counter finder tool.
