Occupational exposure assessments are conducted to evaluate workplace health and safety conditions as they relate to workers' exposure to chemical, physical and biological hazards during the normal work day. Exposure assessment monitoring helps to select and implement effective workplace engineering controls, use of administrative controls and the selection, use and limitations of personal protective equipment. TSI assists the occupational health and safety professional by supplying the DUSTTRAK Aerosols Monitors. These monitors measure aerosol contaminants such as dust, smoke, fumes and mists in real -time. Furthermore they measure PM1, PM2.5, Respirable, PM10 and TPM simultaneously.

Fire service and law enforcement employees face unknown chemical hazards. That's why they must use the highest rated respirators, including SCBAs and military-quality gas masks. Healthcare organizations prefer P1 + P2 filtering face piece (disposable) respirators for protecting workers against airborne biohazards such as TB and SARS. Industrial companies have employees using a wide variety of respirators. But the highest protection level can't be achieved if the respirator isn't donned properly. That's where the TSI PORTACOUNT Respirator Fit Tester comes in. Passing a quantitative respirator fit test proves that the face piece is sized correctly and that the person knows how to put it on correctly. The PORTACOUNT Respirator Fit Tester is the instrument which is compliant with respiratory protection guideline HSE 282/28.
