FAQ
What is the Andersen Cascade Impactor mainly used for?
The Andersen Cascade Impactor is used to collect airborne particles, microorganisms or aerosols for environmental and hygiene assessment. It supports cleanrooms, hospitals, food plants, occupational hygiene and laboratories monitoring air quality.
Which standards and regulations apply to the Andersen Cascade Impactor?
The sampler is designed with reference to applicable ISO and GB/T air-sampling and cleanroom monitoring methods and IEC 61010 electrical safety. Flow and media should follow the standard. Compliance documentation can be provided on request.
What does the warranty cover?
The complete unit carries a 12-month warranty from delivery, covering the main body, core components and controller against manufacturing defects. Consumables and wearing parts such as filters, seals and probes are not covered. Damage from misuse, improper power or unauthorised repair is excluded, and extended warranty can be quoted.
Is the Andersen Cascade Impactor difficult to operate?
Day-to-day use is simple, with clear prompts and pre-set functions reducing manual steps. New operators should review the manual and complete a short familiarisation. Our technical team offers remote support during the first runs.
What is the typical lead time for order delivery?
Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.
Is calibration included?
The unit is calibrated and tested before delivery. For ongoing accuracy, verify it against traceable reference standards every 6 to 12 months, or according to the laboratory quality schedule. We can arrange calibration service and certificates where required.
Are consumables and spare parts easy to obtain?
The instrument uses standard, widely available consumables rather than special locked items. Replacement parts, accessories and consumables can be ordered from us against the model number. We keep common service parts in stock for prompt supply.
Can the Andersen Cascade Impactor be customised?
The standard model can be configured with selected accessories and operating options to suit the task. Non-standard requests are assessed before quotation so the final build is clearly defined. We confirm details before production.
Do you provide on-site installation?
The unit is delivered ready for set-up, with clear commissioning steps in the manual. We provide remote technical support during installation. For larger or regulated systems, a factory-trained engineer can attend on site on request.
What should be avoided when using the Andersen Cascade Impactor?
Do not use an uncalibrated flow, blocked inlet or contaminated media, and avoid sampling in unsuitable conditions. Verify flow and follow hygiene procedures.
