Environmental Air Monitors

Industrial manufacturing environments demand visibility into airborne particulates. From machining and grinding to material conveying and finishing, particulate levels can vary by process and shift. TSI environmental air monitors help teams visualize trends, respond to events, and make data-driven improvements to ventilation and filtration strategies.

Key Capabilities for Manufacturers

• Continuous Monitoring: Track ambient PM in real time to identify spikes tied to specific processes or times of day.
• Remote Dashboards: View multiple areas — from production lines to warehouses and utility spaces — on a centralized platform.
• Threshold Alerts: Configure alarms to prompt inspections, maintenance, or operational changes when levels trend upward.
• Deployment Flexibility: Fixed or mobile setups, with options for industrial enclosures and extended power.
• Reporting and Analytics: Export data for management reviews, audits, and continuous improvement initiatives.

Use Across the Facility

• Production Cells: Monitor particulate near cutting, grinding, mixing, or bagging operations to help evaluate controls.
• Ventilation Tuning: Compare readings before and after system changes to quantify impact.
• Fenceline Awareness: Detect trends at the property boundary and correlate with winds and operations.
• Warehousing and Logistics: Monitor loading docks and transfer points to highlight dust-generating tasks.
• Maintenance and Outages: Track PM during shutdowns and startups when conditions tend to fluctuate.

Benefits to EHS and Operations

• Faster Root-Cause Analysis: Link particulate peaks to specific equipment, materials, or timing.
• Evidence for Investment: Use data to support ventilation upgrades, filtration changes, or process improvements.
• Cross-Functional Visibility: Share dashboards with EHS, operations, and maintenance for coordinated action.
• Sustainability Alignment: Quantify improvements tied to dust reduction and air quality initiatives.

Implementation Considerations

• Sensor Placement: Use airflow maps and process knowledge to position monitors for representative results.
• Power and Connectivity: AC, battery, or solar options with network or cellular backhaul to match site constraints.
• Data Governance: Establish naming conventions, thresholds, and archival practices to sustain program value.

When manufacturing teams can see what the air is doing, they can act sooner and smarter. TSI environmental air monitors deliver the real-time particulate data and tools needed to stabilize processes, optimize controls, and communicate results across the organization.
