Lighthouse Particle Guard Surface Particle Counter

"...Lighthouse Particle Guard Surface Particle Counter is portable and leaves the surface undisturbed..."

ParticleGuard Surface Particle Counter is a portable particle counter that directly measures and counts particles on surfaces while leaving the surface undisturbed.

Requiring no vacuum or liquid transfer, ParticleGuard provides reliable, repeatable and accurate measurement via parallel light. Viewing the surface in real-time, the image processing software automatically counts and sizes particles. This data can be immediately viewed on the integrated 15 TFT screen, printed, or stored for future reference and comparison.

ParticleGuard can be configured to detect particles on various material surfaces such as stainless steel or glass. Its unique technology and portable design makes it the perfect tool for companies concerned with surface particle contamination.
