When asbestos containing materials are disturbed during works, fibres are not released in a uniform manner. The ALERT PRO 1000 draws air through the system in a controlled manner assessing airborne fibres of all sizes on the assumption that no asbestos fibre is safe and if large asbestos fibres are present in the air – so too will be smaller asbestos fibres.
The only known device capable of distinguishing asbestos fibres from other non-asbestos fibres in the air in real-time – ALERT uses patented light scattering technology, the paramagnetic properties of asbestos fibres and a complex algorithmic statistical analysis that works to a 99% confidence level.
Receiving an early warning when asbestos fibres have been disturbed and released into the air will help reduce prolonged and unintentional exposure. When alerted, key decision makers on site are then able to implement the appropriate corrective safety actions without delay.
Light-weight, portable and easy to use the ALERT PRO 1000 is most suitable for use in ambient indoor environments where the fabric of a structure is to be disturbed through maintenance, construction, restoration, improvements and demolition etc.
Developed over 10 years with the goal of saving lives, improving safety, reducing operational costs and liability ALERT is suitable to over 30 industry sectors worldwide and offers one of the biggest advancements in the field of asbestos monitoring for decades.
