New Series of Wall-Mount Particle/Mass Monitors Offers Wide Array of Measurement Options

GrayWolf Sensing Solutions have introduced a new, branded 6-channel Particulate Meter which optionally incorporates sensors for additional environmental parameters such as Total Volatile Organic Compounds,Carbon Dioxide, Temperature and Relative Humidity. The wall-mounted monitor, an updated version of GrayWolf’s PC-4005, which was launched in 2016, displays and logs calculated particle mass concentrations whilst simultaneously displaying and logging all installed optional sensors.

A long-life, laser diode powered sensor and a precision brushless internal pump enable reliable particulate measurement down to 0.3 microns. A high accuracy photo-ionisation detector (PID) for TVOC measurement and a dual-wave NDIR CO2 sensor, both optimally suitable for IAQ applications, are offered. The PC-5000 series monitors may alternatively be connected to GrayWolf’s AdvancedSense®, DirectSense® or WolfPack® instruments to add additional parameters (e.g. formaldehyde, ozone, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ammonia and more) logging into the same data file as other connected sensors. This also allows the user to take full advantage of the broad range of features offered by GrayWolf such as on-board educational info including help videos, IAQ particle size charts, government/industry particulate guidelines and more.

The PC-5000 Series Wall-Mount Particle/Mass Monitors may integrate into a building automation system using Ethernet, USB, RS232 or the optional wireless 802.11 b/g or RS485. Access readings via Modbus RTU or optional cloud-based GrayWolfLive™. PM1.0, PM2.5, PM10 and other particle mass size ranges may be concurrently displayed and logged. These monitors measure particle sizes from 0.3 µm to 25 µm with a flow rate of 2.83 LPM (0.1 CFM). Display 6 particle count size ranges simultaneously; 0.3µm, 0.5µm, 1.0µm, 2.5µm, 5µm, 10.0µm are standard. Alternative size “binning” is available as an option.

Detailed report generation has never been more efficient. The PC-5000s are supplied with GrayWolf’s WolfSense® PC Data Transfer and Reporting software. Operators can also use GrayWolf’s WolfSense Advanced Report Generator™ software to produce automated reports that include tables, graphs, prompted and template text, calibration info, equipment lists and much more in a logical structure established by the user. Optional, pre-established IAQ, LEED® and WELL® structured reports are also available.
