FSC-Ⅱ Biological Air Sampler

FSC-Ⅱ Biological Air Sampler used for detecting airborne microbial contamination. It has been used in a variety of environments including pharmaceutical facilities,hospitals, food and cosmetics labs.

Principle of Operation

A known volume of air is drawn by vacuum through a slit orifice that accelerates the sampled air and its contaminants. Located below the slit and in the path of airflow is an exposed agar plate that rotates on a turntable at a selected rate of speed. The contaminants, because of their higher mass become impacted on the agar surface, while the rest of the air mass flows around the plate and exits the air sampler. After incubation of the agar plate, colonies can be counted and identified. A particle distribution grid can also be used to help determine when a contamination event occurred.
