Chapter 1 Introduction

1.1 Overview

The BioAerosol Monitoring System (BAM

S) is used to detect both inert and microbial particles in real-time,

primarily in clean room environments. It is appropriate for use across many industries, such as aerospace,

biopharmaceutical, medicine & health, electronics, food, and optics. Its main applications are clean class

classification, clean room validation, contaminant source tracking, indoor-air quality monitoring, contaminant

trend analysis, etc. The instrument provides the real-time feedback of air quality in clean rooms by monitoring

both inert and microbial particles and can run 24x7. Contaminants can therefore be found early because of the

continuous and real-time monitoring. BAM

S saves users time and enables more immediate action and

resolution. Without traditional culturing methodology and consumables, BAM

S helps reduce both costs and

reaction times.

1.2 Notes

1. The power supply requires AC 100-240V, 50/60Hz. The regulated power supply is recommended if the local

power grid does not meet the requirements.

2. The device should be stored away from direct sunlight.

3. Do not allow corrosive gases, fume and liquid into the inlet.

4. Make sure the sample tubing is free from obstruction when connecting.

5. Only use in clean room environments to avoid inner contamination.

6. BAM®S and the inlet must be placed in the same pressure, temperature and humidity.

7. The USB flash drive is only used for system software upgrade and storage of BAM®S technical documents.

We recommend that it is not for any other use.

8. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can

be determined by turning the equipment off and on, or remove the equipment to the other place.
