182000B-K1 Apex Standard Sampling Pump with NiMH Battery Including Charger Unit by Casella

The new Apex range of personal sampling pumps has been developed to provide sampling capabilities between 0.005 and 5 l/min. They are suitable for a wide range of applications and offer many advanced features not found in comparable products. Two main models are available in the range; the Apex Standard and the Apex Pro. Ease of use and utmost reliability have been uppermost in the designer’s minds during the development of these quality pumps from Casella CEL. Digital circuitry ensures precise and constant control of the flow rate.

Key Benefits

  • Wide operating range from 5 ml/min to a true 5 l/m flow
  • Direct volumetric flow control
  • Long term stability between calibrations
  • Multi-lingual displays
  • Infra-red communications for simplicity of downloads
  • Pro model stores up to 100 events in memory
  • Drop in fast charger to get back up and running quickly
  • Gas bag outlet for grab sampling of gasses
  • Emergency dry cell battery backup option
  • Standard model upgradeable to Pro version via PC

Applications

  • Personal sampling for particulates in the breathing zone
  • Designed to comply with EN1232, MDHS 14/3, NIOSH 0600 requirements
  • Available in single kits
  • Available in comprehensive multiple 5 pack kits with all the necessary accessories
  • Three buttons on the pump and a customized LCD make the user interface a snip

A full range of sampling heads and filters are available from Casella CEL for measuring respirable, total inhalable and the PM fractions depending on the measurement regime being followed. You can be confident that the pump will maintain a constant flow during the measurement and will alert the user should a problem occur with the flow due to a restriction or blocked filter.

Operation and use

The Pump Manager software is available for use with the logging functions of the Apex Pro model and handles all the setup and downloading of relevant pump data for comprehensive archiving. A drop in fast charger intelligently charges the Apex pumps and maintains them at peak readiness for a new measurement. An optional dry cell battery pack is also available for those really urgent jobs when there is no time to recharge a unit prior to use.
