New Video: Aircuity in the Lab

Wondering how Aircuity works in relation to other equipment in the lab, such as fume hoods, temperature controls, and snorkels? We have updated our video describing the Aircuity platform to include a "part 2," which explains how Aircuity integrates with these other controls. Check it out! For those familiar with the platform video, the new content starts at 1:41. 

Simple Fix, Big Impact

One of our customers recently noticed when reviewing their Aircuity data that a lab was showing consistently elevated TVOC levels. This room was almost always showing high TVOCs regardless of the time which was driving substantially high airflow rates. The customer's environmental health and safety team investigated the room and identified the cause...read the full blog post to find out what is was!

What features make Aircuity the most accurate lab DCV solution? 

Aircuity’s airflow optimization platform consists of patented hardware and control applications necessary for accurate DCV in labs. These features have enabled the successful deployment of our platform for over 20 years!

The first is MicroDuct.  Aircuity’s patented MicroDuct Tubing is one of our most important technological innovations. The MicroDuct is used to transport air sample packets from test area locations back to the Sensor Suit with a pure air sample each time. It has properties similar and even better than stainless steel in that it doesn’t allow absorption or desorption of chemicals, similar to stainless, but also doesn’t allow a static charge to build up. MicoDuct was engineered and tested over many years to ensure common lab IAQ parameters, like TVOCs and particles, can be accurately sampled continuously over time with repeatable accuracy. This is impossible with regular poly tubing as it will foul quickly and build a static charge where particles stick to the sides yielding contaminated samples and inaccurate readings.
