Metone 3400 Series Particle Counter

 MET ONE 3400 portable air particle counter 
The MET ONE 3400 portable air particle counter is designed specifically for ISO14644 cleanroom applications. Organize your routine cleanroom monitoring with embedded location and sample recipe management. The MET ONE 3400 portable air particle counter classification wizard assures compliance during periodic cleanroom certification. 

Features:

Hot-swappable batteries –100% instrument availability

Hot-swappable batteries eliminate the need to stop measuring while your instrument charges or for powering down, zero counting and powering back up

Test Wizard for Easier Compliance - organize your cleanroom

Save time and eliminate errors when monitoring your cleanroom environments

Flexible communications - easy setup and data transfer

Reduce your paperwork with wireless, Ethernet and serial communication options to MET ONE Data Management or your own software solutions

Intuitive User Interface

Easily set up sampling plans by area, location and operating parameter, saving operator time.  Eliminate setup errors and save time by exporting setup configuration to USB memory stick and deploy your sampling plan across your entire particle counting fleet!

Multiple User Login - assures compliance

Password protected multi-level user access to instrument provides data security for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance

ISO 21501-4 reliability and accuracy

Designed for exceptional particle counting performance providing ISO 21501-4 compliant unit-to-unit accuracy and reproducibility

Sequential sampling - manifold system

Low cost site monitoring solutions can be deployed with the MET ONE Model 3432 manifold.  Sample sequentially from up to 32 locations with a single MET ONE Model 3400 airborne particle counter.

* Channel selections can be selected at time of order in a range from 0.3 μ to 25 μ. However 0.3 μ and 25 μ cannot be configured together.
** Battery life is estimated with these conditions: The 1.77 cfm unit sampling for 20 minutes (1 m3) sample, print record, a 5-minute hold time (simulating move to new location), then repeat this cycle. Backlight sleep time is set at 2 minutes. The 1.0 cfm unit, sample time is set at one minute, print record, a 1-minute hold time (simulating continuous sampling mode), then repeat this cycle. Backlight would remain on at all times.
