Downloads
The portable HAZ-SCANNER EPAS is a true environmental air station providing ambient air quality monitoring of critical EPA criteria pollutants and air parameters. EPAS is the only instrument on the market to offer true simultaneous monitoring of PM10 and PM2.5. EPAS is available in two kits: Basic and build your own (Foundation). Both offer the ability to configure with different toxic chemical sensors, size-selective impactors, and EPAS-specific meters to simultaneously measure up to 14 critical air parameters. Several wireless and networking options are available as well as datalogging capabilities. Graphing and reporting software is compatible with PC and Mac.
HAZ-SCANNER Wireless EPAS Applications include:
- Ambient/urban air quality monitoring
- Hazardous incident response
- Waste site remediation/land reclamation monitoring
- Military/homeland security
- Perimeter monitoring
- Near roadway monitoring
