Particle
Counter Calibration
Micro-Clean now performs primary calibration of MetOne
and Climet Particle Counters.
The particle counter is a critical piece of equipment
for monitoring a cleanroom environment. Routine maintenance and proper
calibration will guarantee that your unit operates properly and gives
you accurate readings.
An optical particle counter passes a stream of sampled
air through a sensing chamber at a constant flow rate. This sample passes
through a beam of laser light where light is reflected off particles
in the air stream and sensed by a photo-diode. The amount of light that
is diverted by each particle is interpreted as a voltage. The magnitude
of the voltage is directly proportional to the size of the particle
that has passed through the chamber. Internal threshold voltages, set
during calibration with NIST traceable particles, enable the particle
counter to calculate the size and number of particles passing through
the counter. Each count is timed to accurately sample a specified volume
of air.
Micro-Clean has previously calibrated particle counters
by the comparison method (ASTM F649-01) using a factory-calibrated standard
counter. Now, we have developed procedures to perform size calibration
(the primary method in ASTM F328-98 and JIS B 9921). This gives our
customers the primary method calibration identical to the OEM.
Micro-Clean adds an independent Quality Assurance review
to ensure proper cGMP compliance. The Quality Assurance reviews, as
well as all calibration documentation, are contained in a final documentation
package.
Micro-Clean has bundled the following services, which
mirror those provided by the original manufacturer.
