[labnetwork] Stationary Particle Counters

[Devin Fortier]

Dear Colleagues,

We are looking to improve the way we do particle counts in our cleanroom
and are looking at installing multiple stationary particle counters as a
solution.  We would also want these devices to tie in with our building
monitoring system that uses BACnet.

We currently have a portable particle counter that is moved to various set
locations and left to take its measurements.  This is being done by a staff
member and the whole procedure takes up almost half a day of one person's
time per week.  Aside from taking so much time, the counter is cumbersome
and gets in the way of our users in the lab.

My question to the group is what are you currently using for your particle
counts?  Does anyone use stationary particle counters and process the data
to get an average over the whole cleanroom area?

Thank you,
