Lighthouse Handheld 3016 IAQ Particle Counter Review


Jim reviews Lighthouse 3016 IAQ"Are you in an industry that requires air monitoring?  You can perform indoor air quality investigations using a handheld particle counter designed specifically for IAQ."

New Particle Mass Concentration Mode!!
By using a quality handheld particle counter, you can walk around and monitor the airborne contamination in a particular area.  A new split screen and toggle button let you bring up particle counts as well as mass & density in real time.  With 4 of the 6 channels 1 micron and greater, and a concentration limit of 4,000,000 particles per cubic foot at 0.3 micron and greater, this handheld particle counter functions in non cleanroom (or what cleanroom people refer to as dirty) environments.  Lighthouse 3016 IAQ is ideal for finding a leak in ductwork, testing air filters for effectiveness or leaks, or locating the source of a mold remediation problem.
