Air Sampling Instruments

Aanderaa Instruments Data Collecting Instruments for Land Sea and Air

1 Visibility in the atmosphere is of great interest for road and sea traffic and in aviation. The MIRA Visibility Sensor 3544 is designed to fulfill the demand for a small, low power unit to be operated with Aanderaa Measuring Stations. Visibility is often limited by fog and haze and the sensor is designed to detect these factors. The sensor consist of an aluminum body containing all necessary ...

Radioactive Particulate Air Sampling

Air Sampling for Fungi in Indoor Environments

Mould growth in buildings is a major health issue, but most investigations of the indoor air spora still employ culture-based methods. These are inadequate for assessing exposure, since culturable organisms comprise a small fraction of the total of potentially allergenic/toxigenic units in air. For epidemiological studies, measurement of airborne fungal biomass over extended periods may be more...

Thermal precipitation for sampling air-borne microorganisms.

Printed Self-Powered Miniature Air Sampling Sensors

The recent geo-political climate has increased the necessity for autonomous, chip-sized, lightweight, air sampling systems which can quickly detect and characterize chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high explosive (CBRNE) hazardous materials and relay the results. To address these issues, we have developed a self-powered 3-D chip architecture that processes air to produce concent...
