Accurate particulate data starts with accurate flow. TSI primary calibrators help industrial manufacturing teams verify and document the performance of air sampling pumps and related instruments. Regular checks support method adherence and provide a traceable foundation for decisions about process controls and exposure programs.

Benefits for manufacturing environments:

  • Easy, repeatable flow verification before and after sampling
  • Support for a wide range of sampling pumps and inline devices
  • Stable readings that help reduce variability across operators and shifts
  • Straightforward documentation to aid audits and internal QA processes

Use primary calibrators to:

  • Set up personal and area sampling trains with the correct flow rate
  • Confirm instrument performance after maintenance or configuration changes
  • Establish baselines during commissioning and process adjustments
  • Compare results across lines and facilities with confidence

A practical calibration routine can be built into start-up checklists or preventive maintenance. When combined with real-time aerosol and dust monitors, primary calibrators help you align spot sampling with continuous trends. This integrated approach gives teams clear, defensible data to guide ventilation tuning, enclosure improvements, and work practice adjustments in industrial manufacturing. By validating flow at the source, you set the stage for better decisions and more consistent results across your dust monitoring program.
