General description

The MAS-100 VF® microbial air monitoring systems are high performance, portable, battery operated instrument which are based on the principle of the Andersen air sampler. These compact yet sophisticated devices are the preferred choice for those demanding the highest quality in microbial air monitoring. An ambient amount of air is aspirated through a 300-hole perforated lid and impacted onto the surface of growth media in standard 90-100 mm Petri dishes or 55-60 mm contact plates. Microorganisms are impacted onto the agar and, after an appropriate incubation period, the colonies are counted. The system measures the inflow of air and regulates it to a constant value of 100 litres/min. These systems have the highest airflow accuracy of ±4.0%, compared to others that can be as high as ±10%. The integrated flow sensor allows the user to freely interchange the perforated lids without affecting the accuracy or the calibration of the unit. The MAS-100 VF® is powered by a Lithium ion rechargeable battery with an intelligent charging program that assures long battery life without routine discharging.

Application

The MAS-100 VF® microbial air sampling devices are extensively used in Pharmaceutical and Personal care industries as well as Food, Beverage and Environmental applications.
