Improved dust monitoring for site operations

Casella introduce advanced Dust Detective Enclosure for use in indoor and outdoor environments

AIR sampling, noise- and vibration-monitoring specialists Casella have launched an improved version of their Dust Detective Enclosure, which, they say, is set to be a game-changer in short-term boundary and environmental monitoring in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Capable of monitoring for more than 12 hours using its internal batteries, the lightweight and portable Casella Dust Detective encompasses the Microdust Pro real-time dust monitor and the Apex2 air-sampling pump. The unit is easy to assemble and provides fast, real-time data that are easily downloadable for analysis and reporting, allowing the user to identify trends in dust levels, areas of concern and hot spots that require action.

Improvements have been made to the enclosure by using quick-release clips around the measurement probe for faster set-up times. The portable enclosure’s internal layout has also been improved, allowing everything to be contained neatly inside, including calibration devices.

Tim Turney, technical product manager at Casella, explained: ‘The new and improved Dust Detective Enclosure will ensure accurate real-time data are easy to obtain. The equipment’s speedy set-up process and increased internal space will make monitoring pain-free and allow site operators to easily carry all the necessary equipment around on site.’
