Air sampling equipment

Air sampling equipment is the class of instruments that draws a measured volume of air across a collection medium or a detector to quantify what the air carries, whether that is viable microorganisms, inert particles, or specific gases and vapours. The catalogue holds 286 listings from 13 verified suppliers and distributors across 7 countries, in new, used and refurbished condition. 97 percent of the listings are used. Prices run from EUR 10 to EUR 10.000, with an average near EUR 1.946. The equipment serves two separate jobs that often share a bench: microbiological monitoring, which captures living cells onto an agar plate for incubation, and particle counting, which sizes and tallies non-viable particles in real time. A laboratory specifies one, the other, or both depending on what it has to prove.
