Casella Apex2 range dust sampling pumps

Casella has launched Apex2, a range of next-generation personal sampling pumps that provide accurate and reliable monitoring of exposure to dust in a variety of industrial workplaces. The pumps are ergonomically designed to ensure better wearer acceptance, while providing performance, functionality and connectivity, as well as simplicity of reporting.

The range includes three separate models: the Apex 2, Apex 2 Plus and Apex 2 Pro. All three models are designed to be unobtrusive to the wearer and the task that they are performing. If a worker removes the pump, this will be registered via a motion sensor that provides data to confirm if the pump has been worn and therefore confirm the validity of the sample.

The Apex 2 Plus and Apex 2 Pro models enable remote monitoring on smartphone and tablets as they both connect with the Casella Airwave app via Bluetooth 4.0 technology. This free app can assess the sampling run without disturbing the wearer of the pump and also enables them to control the pump from the smart device. The app provides near-real-time status updates and allows collected data to be emailed alongside photos and notes for reporting purposes.
