GT-321 Handheld Particle Counter
The handheld GT-321 is a portable particle counter that counts particles down to 0.3 microns—giving you portability and reliability at the lowest price in the industry. Don’t let the size fool you—the GT-321 is completely self- contained with its own internal battery and sample pump, and is programmable, allowing you to choose your particle size of interest from five sizes: 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, or 5.0 microns. Unlike other counters that can take up to a minute to deliver results, the GT-321 starts delivering volumetric concentration results in about 6 seconds! This facilitates quick multi-site sampling, tracing particle sources and site particle trending.
Features
- Most inexpensive counter on the market
- Simple Operation
- Fast Sampling
- Battery or AC Powered
- Keypad Selectable Sizes
Operation
The GT-321 has a simple operation with only two front-panel buttons control the size channels and sample cycle. The side-mounted power switch allows for convenient thumb operation. The self-contained battery pack powers the unit for 8 hours of typical intermittent operation, and for up to 5 hours of continuous use. The included AC adapter operates the counter, even when the battery pack is discharged, and recharges the depleted battery overnight (16 hours) when turned off. Units are available for same-day or next-day shipping!
