Scientific Studies and Health Problems
Scientific studies have found an association between exposure to particulate matter and significant health problems in people with:
- Aggravated Asthma
- Chronic Bronchitis
- Reduced Lung Function
- Irregular Heartbeat
- Heart Attack
- Lung Disease
Individuals particularly sensitive to fine particle exposure:

The First Affordable Air Particle Monitor
The DC1100 is the first affordable instrument designed for monitoring particulate pollution in homes and work places. It detects airborne particulates including dust, mold, pollen, bacteria, tobacco smoke, pet dander, dust mite debris and more. The DC1100 continuously monitors and stores data so that you can analyze the cleanliness of your home or work place.
The DC1100 is simple to operate. All that needs to be done is to plug the unit in and turn it on. Once turned on the unit will automatically configure itself to run in continuous mode and display the current level of particulate pollution for both small and large particles. The data sampled will also be recorded for future analysis.
In addition, a dynamic bar graph will be displayed which will give the user an immediate visual indicator of the number and size of particles being detected. |

Record and Analyse Air Quality Yourself
With the DC1100 you will be able to tailor your efforts to achieve the required air quality. The quality of ambient air varies greatly even within a period of 24 hours, windows/ doors are opened or closed, the air conditioning comes on, building or other work activity commences or any number of other factors.
Large differences in particle numbers and size can be observed between rooms in a single house. If a typical reading in a home reads between 200 and 2000 (average 1000) small particles on the DC1100 reducing the average to 100 particles means that you are breathing 1/10th of particles than before.
An even greater improvement can be achieved by reducing the particles in each room. The DC1100 provides the data to enable these improvements to be made.
Optional RS232 Terminal Interface
- For collecting data to produce graphical readout
- Stores up to 30 days of data
