Particle Counting (Particle Counter)

Our new MET ONE 3400+ Series Portable Airborne Particle Counter allows users to load their routine environmental monitoring SOP sampling map and sampling configuration for each location directly into the counter, so that the SOP becomes an interactive sampling map directly on

Our new MET ONE 3400+ Series Portable Airborne Particle Counter allows users to load their routine environmental monitoring SOP sampling map and sampling configuration for each location directly into the counter, so that the SOP becomes an interactive sampling map directly on the counter screen to guide users doing daily sampling. This helps reduce training requirements and sampling data errors/omissions.

Accessed remotely via a web browser, features such as review/approve workflow, SOP version control and electronic record export are all in the counter – there’s no external software needed. Secure on-board searchable/filterable Audit Trail provides fast reporting during audits combined with Microsoft Active Directory for User Name and Password control for log-on and electronic signatures to support 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.

Using a web-browser interface, load your SOP map into the counter, mark sample locations, and define SOP sampling requirements for each.

Onscreen instructions help operators navigate your map and perform sampling according to the SOP. Location names turn green after sampling, making it easy to track progress at a glance.

The MET ONE 3400+ can provide electronic records straight from the counter via USB, wired Ethernet or built-in WiFi.

We provide scalable Facility Monitoring Systems (FMS) that can be configured to meet a wide spectrum of cleanroom management needs for various industries—including pharmaceutical production. Among parameters that can be efficiently and reliably monitored using a Beckman Coulter FMS are non-viable/viable air sampling, differential pressure, air temperature and relative humidity. All of the company’s FMS solutions are based on an open-architecture platform designed to enable easy, streamlined integration with existing customer systems (SCADA). Each instrument is built around proven MET ONE technology, including the portable MET ONE 3400 series for routine monitoring and cleanroom classification, as well as the 6000 and 7000 series of fixed, non-viable air particle counters. MET ONE software platforms feature intuitive interfaces to help make them easy to use, thereby reducing the potential for human error that can occur with manual SOP monitoring. To avoid losses from product contamination, stack lights, audible alarms and process shutdown signals from a Beckman Coulter FMS can prompt an immediate production line response whenever an excursion happens. In addition, to help centralize reporting and simplify EUGMP/FDA compliance (e.g., for ISO 14644 and 21 CFR Part 11), Beckman FMS data can be integrated into a single-release, electronically signed paperless report.

The Multisizer 4e particle sizer and counter is the most accurate and flexible particle characterization device available, boasting an unparalleled sizing range of 0.2 - 1600 μm. The new 10 μm Aperture allows users to study sub-cellular and micro-particles as small as 200 nm, while the advanced noise reduction system for small apertures improves measurement accuracy.

Generated data are processed using patented digital pulse processing technology and can be saved and later re-analyzed. This technology provides ultra high resolution and accuracy unattainable through any other technologies: detection of 1 particle in 1 ml of a sample with the optimal instrument configuration. Analysis results are not dependent on particle shape, structure, or optical properties.

It uses the Coulter principle to detect particles via electrical zone sensing, regardless of the particle’s nature or optical properties. This makes it an ideal tool for detecting and counting a wide variety of particles, such as:

• Mammalian cells
• Bacteria
• Yeast
• Abrasives
• Toner particles
• Cell aggregates
• Spheroids
• Large protein aggregates
