Measuring equipment passes the tests
September 1st 2009

Instrument Solutions, a wholly owned subsidiary of BSRIA dedicated to helping organisations meet the ever more stringent Test and Measurement requirements of the Health & Safety Executive, will be exhibiting at Health and Safety 09 - North.

A major supplier of testing equipment to the NHS and especially to health and safety specialists within the medical profession, Instrument Solutions will be showing the most up-todate equipment in many fields and especially featuring Sound Signs from Cirrus, giving warning when a preset noise level is exceeded and the TSI 9306 Aerotrak Handheld Particle Counter used for monitoring particulate levels in facilities such as hospital theatres and laminar flow benches in pharmacies.

Perhaps most important of all is the latest equipment for 'fit testing' on respirators to meets HSE 282/28, a protocol that now applies as much to the humble fabric face mask as it does to the full-face, oxygen-fed state of the art model.

The TSI PortaCount Pro+ tests staff members in the required seven different positions, covers all types of masks including FFP3 masks worn by hospital workers who have direct contact with infected patients and, crucially for the employer, delivers a 'Pass or Fail' decision that makes monitoring statistics simple.

The company can give independent advice on fit testing as well as hiring out or selling the equipment needed for a company to complete its own testing programme. The tests are relatively simple and can take as little as fifteen minutes.

Visitors can see BSRIA Instrument Solutions on Stand 22.
