Environmental concerns are more at the forefront of public discourse than ever before. Consequently, monitoring air quality has become increasingly important.

Our dust monitors are ideal for tracking particulate matter (PM), particularly PM10 and PM2.5, which are known to have adverse effects on human health and the environment.

As a company which provides ISO 9001:2015 certified products and MCERTS-certified dust monitors, you can rely on Turnkey’s instruments for their reliability and compliance with regulatory standards.

Why dust monitoring is so crucial.

Dust particles, especially PM10 and PM2.5, pose serious health risks. But what exactly do these terms mean?

  • PM10 refers to particulate matter with a diameter of 10 micrometres or less. These particles originate from various sources, including vehicle emissions, industrial processes, construction activities, and natural events like dust storms and wildfires. Due to their small size, PM10 particles can penetrate the respiratory system, potentially leading to respiratory and cardiovascular issues. They are a major component of air pollution and are monitored by environmental agencies to assess air quality. Reducing PM10 emissions is crucial for improving public health and environmental sustainability.
  • PM2.5 refers to particles with a diameter of 2.5 micrometres or less. These particles can penetrate the respiratory system, leading to health issues such as asthma, lung cancer, and cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, they contribute to environmental problems, including poor air quality and climate change.

Here in Britain, stringent regulations govern air quality to protect public health and the environment. Compliance with these regulations demands accurate and reliable dust monitoring.

Therefore, selecting dust monitors that meet high standards of quality and precision is essential for any organisation involved in environmental monitoring or industrial processes that produce dust emissions.
