Automated Filter Tester 8130A

SKU: 8130A

The Automated Filter Tester Model 8130A continues to be the best solution for testing particulate respirator filters, disposable filtering face pieces, and a wide assortment of filter media. TSI filter testers have been used in quality control and manufacturing by leading filter and filter media manufacturers and reference test institutes around the world for more than 20 years due to their proven durability and reliability, which is valued in demanding manufacturing environments and QA/QC laboratories.

Product Details

Based on TSI's established model 8130, currently the world's most-used filter tester, model 8130A now offers higher sensitivity and resolution - up to 99.9999 percent efficiency has been produced with Emery oil at concentrations of 200 mg/m³. The new serviceable photometers are lowering the cost of ownership and enable proactive scheduling of maintenance for minimal impact to production schedules.

The model 8130A features a high degree of automation and self-diagnostics that greatly simplifies operation, increases throughput, and improves overall measurement performance. When looking for a stand-alone tester to determine penetration or filter efficiency and pressure drop of your media, filter cartridges, filters, and respiratory masks the model 8130A is up to the challenge.
