Extech VPC300 Particle Counter w/ Built-In Camera
Suitable for measuring diesel vehicle transportation/service depots, fossil fuel burning, traffic emission, charcoal heating, manufacturing and more, the Extech VPC300 is a an advanced particle counter which can simultaneously measure and display 6 particle size channels down as low as 0.3μm.
Fully configurable to the user's specifications, the VPC300 allows adjustments to sampling time, counting data and even has a programmable delay function. MAX/MIN, DIF and AVG recording functions are also available, as is a date/time setup system. This meter is also suitable for continuous measurements and comes supplied with a tripod for hands-free mounting.
An on-board digital camera/video system on the VPC300 can be used to take reference videos and images which are stored directly in internal memory. Up to 5000 individual testing records can be directly stored on the tester and a 20 minute video can also be stored alongside them. Afterwards, Extech's included software can be used to generate reports on PC with videos, photos and data points.
This meter is calibrated to NIST-traceable standards by Extech at the time of manufacturing.
