November 18, 2014 - New Star Environmental announces the Model 804 Four Channel Handheld Particle Counter that counts particles 0.3 microns to 10.0 microns offering portability and reliability at a cost for the most budget-conscience users.
This unit is completely self-contained with its own internal battery and sample pump, and is programmable, allowing the user to choose from seven particle sizes: 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 or 10.0 microns.
Unlike other counters that can take up to a minute to deliver results, the Model 804 incorporates user-selectable sampling time up to 1 minute and displays counts in as little as 3 seconds. The unit will take single or continuous samples. Only two front-panel buttons and scroll wheel provide a user friendly, menu driven platform that provides ease in configuration. The self-contained battery pack powers the unit for 30 hours of typical intermittent operation, and for up to 8 hours of continuous use.
The included AC charger / adapter operates the counter, even when the battery pack is discharged, and recharges the depleted battery in 2.5 hours. The Model 804 stores up to 2500 records that may be output to a spreadsheet format via single computer software. USB interface provides quick data download and field firmware upgrades.
