What’s the difference between a TRIO.BAS and TRIO.BAS ATEX?
The performances are the same. The TRIO.BAS ATEX model is used for security reasons in potentially explosive atmosphere according the international directives.
Which are the portable instruments and the stationary instruments?
The portable instruments are included in the yellow line: TRIO.BAS MINI, TRIO.BAS MONO, TRIO.BAS DUO, TRIO.BAS.TRIO, ETC.
The stationary instruments are included in the stainless steel line: TRIO.BAS ISOLATOR, TRIO.BAS MULTIFLEX,1, MULTIFLEX 1+2, TRIO.BAS RABS, TRIO.BAS ISOLATOR.
Two air samplers of the same model give different result. What could be the reason?
First of all, it is necessary to consider that microbiology is not math and that the microorganisms are not even distributed in the air.
It is necessary to check if the samples were taken at the same conditions and place, if the sampler was decontaminated, if the sampler was calibrated.
Which is the more appropriate TRIO.BAS model to choose: 100 or 200 litres of air / minute?
TRIO.BAS 100 aspirates 100 litres of air per minute = 1000 litres in 10 minutes
TRIO.BAS 200 aspirates 200 litres of air per minute = 1000 litres in 5 minutes
TRIO.BAS 200 is more convenient for Clean Room where the contamination is lower and a higher volume of air should be collected.
