The Burkard Personal Air Sampler monitors air quality by collecting airborne bioaerosol contaminants directly onto glass slides in both indoor and outdoor environments. The Personal Air Sampler is designed for short-term sampling in domestic or industrial environments particularly where no power supplies are available.

 

The Burkard Personal Air Sampler is a perfect air quality monitor used in culture rooms, clean rooms, laminar flow cabinets and domestic environments for collecting bacteria and other particles direct onto a glass slide for immediate microscopic viewing.

 

Features:
· Variable time selection (1-9 minutes)
· LED indicators
· Audible cycle alerts
· Operates at a nominal 10L/min
· Powered by a high precision DC motor
· Lightweight and portable
· Rechargeable NiCad batteries
· For use with standard 76x26mm or 3”x1” glass slides
· Quiet operation

 

How it works:
Air is aspirated through a hole in the sample head. The laminar airflow created by this design impels microorganisms onto the slide. Changing of the glass slide is quick and simple through the knurled upper ring, which can be rotated to the “open” position marked by aligning the red dots.
