Environmental Enclosure

Environmental Enclosures extend the operational range of particulate monitoring systems used by emergency response and law enforcement. Incident environments are unpredictable — gusting winds, swirling smoke, blowing dust, and shifting temperatures are common. Purpose-built housings help teams keep instruments operating as intended so incident command gains clearer, steadier readings.

Built for Field Deployments

• Robust Construction: Durable housings help resist weather exposure during outdoor operations and multi-day incidents.
• Inlet and Flow Management: Designed to promote stable sampling and reduce measurement interruptions during gusts and swirling particulate.
• Mounting Flexibility: Tripod, pole, or vehicle-mast options help responders place monitors where they are most effective.
• Power Integration: Cable pass-throughs and battery compartments support AC, battery, or solar setups without compromising usability.
• Service Access: Tool-less or quick-access designs help speed filter checks and routine maintenance at scene.

Where Enclosures Add Value

• Wildfire and Prescribed Burns: Enhance durability and consistency during extended smoke monitoring.
• Hazmat/Industrial Releases: Improve stability at downwind perimeters exposed to variable winds.
• Disaster Debris Operations: Support continuous monitoring near demolition or heavy equipment zones.
• Community Edge Monitoring: Enable longer-term deployments at sensitive receptors during multi-day events.

Operational Guidance

• Position in clear airflow, away from obstructions that cause recirculation.
• Use enclosures with shading options to reduce solar loading and stabilize measurements.
• Secure mounting hardware to handle wind gusts and site traffic.
• Pair with cellular and power kits for remote oversight and sustained operation.

When responders deploy monitors into harsh conditions, enclosures help keep systems functioning as intended. Combined with DustTrak Environmental Monitors, these housings support repeatable measurements and operational continuity — so commanders can view trends, coordinate resources, and document activities with fewer interruptions.
