R9501 Remote Airborne
Particle Counter

0.5 – 25.0 µm @ 0.1 CFM

The Airy Technology® R9501 Remote Airborne Particle Counter is designed for continuous monitoring in cleanrooms and other controlled environments. With 30 user-selectable particle size channels ranging from 0.5 up to 25.0 μm and a flow rate of 0.1 CFM (2.83 LPM), these instruments deliver targeted contamination detection with real-time data collection and configurable alarms for immediate incident reporting and local visual alerts.

Calibrated to ISO 21501-4 standards for traceability, the R9501 features onboard storage for redundant data validation and secure user access. The compact, angled enclosures enable installation in tight locations while minimizing disruption to unidirectional airflow. The R9501 supports data reporting in standard cleanroom formats or as mass concentration in μg/m³, with density and refractive index corrections. Optional temperature and relative humidity probes allow integration of three key data points into a single monitoring location.

Built for scalability and long-term reliability, these models utilize durable laser diodes backed by a lifetime warranty, and they deliver exceptional zero-count performance. With seamless connectivity, remote diagnostics, and a standardized architecture, they offer simplified integration and a lower total cost of ownership for critical monitoring applications.
