INTRODUCTION
Formaldehyde (HCHO), a volatile organic compound
(VOC), is a common source of indoor air pollution in
paints, dyes, synthetic resins, textiles, cleaning agents,
flooring, and wallpaper. Sper Scientific Formaldehyde
Meters are ideal for accurately measuring formaldehyde
levels to comply with OSHA standards in the paper,
construction, pharmaceutical, textile, horticulture, food,
medical and cosmetic industries.
The meters feature a backlit LCD, selectable audible and
visual alarms, and one-button calibration for easy use.
Relative humidity (RH), temperature, and maximum and
minimum readings are provided along with automatically
calculated one-hour and time-weighted averages (TWA)
and a short-term exposure limit (STEL).
Datalogging Model 800053 reads both mg/m3 and
ppm and can record up to 32,000 total data points of
HCHO and temperature. A USB cable and datalogging
software are included for downloading readings.
