Real-Time Fiber Monitor 7400

Product Details

The Real-Time Fiber Monitor 7400 is a technologically advanced real-time fiber monitor that detects and counts airborne fibers such as asbestos, mineral wool, advanced composites, ceramic and glass. The Real-Time Fiber Monitor is factory-calibrated with traceability to NIOSH Method 7400 for asbestos fibers. The 7400 largely ignores non-fibrous background particles using the proven principle of electric-field-induced fiber alignment and oscillation.

The 7400 is the ideal instrument to check and verify worker safety during asbestos remediation and removal operations. With its fully charged battery pack, the 7400 will operate unattended for eight hours and record the observed fiber concentrations at 1-min intervals. If the fiber concentration exceeds a user-defined, pre-set level, an audible alarm sounds.

Applications

• Asbestos abatement operations to monitor success and ensure worker safety
• Monitoring in manufacturing operations that use raw fiber materials
• Monitoring airborne fibers that result from uncontrolled releases, such as fires, earthquakes or explosions
