Continuous Particle Counters: An Overview

1. Continuous Particle Counters: An Overview Particle counters are suitable for users who operate as well as maintain controlled environments. They are also ideal for those who are looking for greater control over their spaces. In cleanrooms, real-time continuous particle counters have the capability to detect potential contamination events before it becomes impossible to take corrective action. There are several cleanrooms, pharmaceutical plants, production plants, and even hospitals that take benefits using particle counters. There are several benefits of using these counters. Take a look at some of them: They can detect all particle events. They are suitable for critical or sensitive monitoring at lower detection limits <0.1 microns. They are ideal to monitor equipment for failure and preventive maintenance at a higher detection limit <0.2 microns. They allow the emergency reaction to particle events. They are ideal for immediate notification or alarming of yield destroying particle excursions. They allow immediate feedback to operators as well as technicians when procedures are not being followed. They provide immediate feedback after shut down or evacuation in order to check out if the area is in the specification. What’s more? There are countless benefits of using Continuous Particle Counters in order to address the particular needs of cleanroom environments within the semiconductor, hard disk drive, pharmaceutical, flat panel display, and several related industries.
