The Automated Filter Tester 8130A continues to be the best solution for testing particulate respirator filters, disposable filtering face pieces, and a wide assortment of filter media. Based on TSI’s established model 8130, the world’s most-used filter tester, model 8130A now offers higher sensitivity and resolution at a lower cost of ownership due to the new serviceable photometers inside. Just one unit is needed to test your product to:
For more than 20 years, TSI’s Automated Filter Testers have been used in quality control and manufacturing. They are used by the leading filter and filter media manufacturers and test centers around the world due to their proven durability and reliability, which is valued in demanding manufacturing environments and QA/QC laboratories.
The new serviceable photometers enable proactive scheduling of maintenance of the full filter tester so there is minimal impact to production schedules. When looking for a stand-alone tester to determine penetration or filter efficiency and pressure drop of your media, filter cartridges, filters, and respiratory masks the model 8130A is up to the challenge.
Specifically designed aerosol generators and laser photometers enable highly repeatable and reproducible filter-efficiency measurements at up to six 9’s of efficiency with oil. In addition, the model 8130A features a high degree of automation and self-diagnostics that greatly simplifies operation, increases throughput, and improves overall measurement performance. Test sequences can be customized quickly to fit the ever-changing needs of different standards.
