PRELIMINARY NOTE
The CIP10 is a small unit for collecting dust suspended in air. It was designed and
developed in the 80s at CHERCHAR (Centre d’Études et de Recherches de
Charbonnage de France [French Research Center of Coal Mines]) now INERIS
(Institut National de l’Environnement Industriel et des Risques [National Institute on
Environment and Industrial Risks]) by Paul Courbon.
It was particularly studied, with expansion of its possible uses, at the INRS (Institut
National de Recherche et de Sécurité [National Institute Occupational Safety and Health]).
It is manufactured and sold under INERIS license by ARELCO A.R.C.

In 2003, a new cup for sampling microorganisms was perfected. The
CIP10
equipped with this cup is called the CIP 10 M .
GENERAL OVERVIEW
1. OBJECTIVES
The CIP10 is a small unit for collecting dust, intended to measure employees’
exposure to particles suspended in mines, industry and the general environment.
It is normally worn on the chest, but can also be placed in a fixed position in
the work zone or in any other place for ambient measurement.
More specifically its purpose is to sample particles that are a health risk (res-
pirable alveolar, thoracic and inhalable) in conformance with the CEN 481 and
ISO 7708 standards (see BIBLIOGRAPHY page 26).
To do that it has three interchangeable selectors. The selected and collected
particles can then be weighed to determine the concentration by weight, and
then analyzed and the components measured.
