D53

DUST MONITOR

ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING
D-SERIES

OVERVIEW

The D53 is an industrial dust and air quality monitor that offers real-time monitoring of particulate levels and surrounding environmental conditions to identify unhealthy conditions early on, to act quickly.

The D53 supports proactive dust management, giving sites better visibility of exposure risk to help improve workplace safety, environmental awareness, and overall control.

SENSING CAPABILITIES

MEASUREMENTS

PM1.0, PM2.5, PM4.0, PM10

AMBIENT CONDITIONS

Barometric Pressure, Humidity, Barometric Pressure

WHY IS DUST MONITORING IMPORTANT?

Airborne dust and silica particulates (specifically) pose serious risks to health and safety in industrial environments. Prolonged exposure to PM1, PM2.5, PM4, and PM10 can cause chronic respiratory disease, cancer, cardiovascular damage, and other life-threatening illnesses.
