The MD8 Airscan® in conjunction with the gelatin membrane filters not only allows the collection of airborne microorganisms, it also enables technicians to capture smallest particles, like viruses. Stainless steel sampling head as Triclamp 50.5 version for easy integration in tubes. The sampling head is part of the MD8 Airscan® and actively creates a vacuum by sucking the air onto the gelatin membrane filter (GMF). For proper operation of the sampling head the command unit (16746-01--COM) and a quick connector cable (69898530) is needed.
A fundamental aspect of cleanrooms and critical zones is to achieve lowest concentrations of airborne particles by reducing their introduction and generation. Measurement for this purpose must be accurate as well as reliable, and must not interfere with the zone protection. The MD8 Airscan® is a modular air sampling system, consisting of a command unit and a stainless steel sampling head. Both will be connected to each other with a quick connector cable. Due to this design, several sampling heads can be consecutively operated with only one command unit. This saves investment costs. The hermetic design of the sampling head, also allows in-line sterilization of the interior of the sampling head with vaporized hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).
