Dust Monitoring for Construction, Demolition & Mining
Real-Time Environmental & Particulate Data to Ensure Regulatory Compliance
Wind, temperature, relative humidity, and particle count can critically impact operations at a construction site, mining operation, or bulk handling facility. When wind or particulate amounts exceed specific trigger points, it may be necessary to alter or suspend operations. Suspension or other remediations help maintain the health and safety of the local population by limiting the dispersion of airborne dust and particulate.
Met One Instruments, Inc. offers a variety of solutions by coupling either the General Purpose Weather Station or AIO 2 (All-In-One) Weather Sensor with our ES-642, ES-405, E-Sampler, or E-BAM dust and particulate monitors. These systems provide real-time data to maintain operations while complying with local, state, and federal regulations. Cloud-based data handling provides immediate data access using any smart device, in addition to providing alerts via text message or e-mail.
Dust monitoring is one aspect of air quality that industrial hygienists use to determine the number of dust particles present in the workplace, cities, or communities over a given time. PM pollution is a mixture of particles of various sizes such as soot, smoke, dirt, and dust. Many pollutants that make their way indoors are generated and released into the air from outdoor sources such as power plants, industrial processes, and automobiles. Living near a major roadway, for instance, can significantly increase PM exposure. Other particles are generated within the home from activities such as cooking or burning wood in fireplaces. Small particles also include mold and bacteria, and larger particles include pollen and dust mite casings.
PM can have short- and long-term health effects, with the smallest particles posing the most significant health risk. Effects of PM pollution exposure include increased respiratory symptoms such as coughing and difficulty breathing as well as aggravated asthma or other existing respiratory and cardiovascular conditions.
Met One Instruments, Inc. has developed the Aerocet 532, the Aerocet 831, and the BT-645 to be well-suited for dust monitoring applications indoors. For outdoor dust monitoring applications, the ES-405 is an ideal candidate.
