Simple atomization of particles

Compact design
A particle atomizer always with you thanks to battery operation and a practical transport case.

 

Reproducible concentrations

Adjustable parameters in the atomization process ensure reproducible concentrations.

 

Variable use

For generating data sets in the SwisensEcosystem or in use for laboratory experiments and other measuring instruments.

SwisensAtomizer is a compact particle nebulizer for solid and dry particle samples such as pollen, mineral dust and other materials. With its innovative atomization process, SwisensAtomizer produces stable and controllable particle concentrations for measurement campaigns, calibrations and laboratory experiments.

The atomization process briefly explained

The particles are filled into a standardized macro cuvette and swirled up by a vibrating plate. The vibrations can be adjusted accordingly in frequency and amplitude. The adjustable air flow ensures the necessary atomization of the particles, which can then be aspirated by a measuring system. In this way, particles can be nebulized to stable concentrations over a long period of time.

 

Use in the SwisensEcosystems:

• SwisensEcosystem Pollen Monitoring 

• SwisensEcosystem Bioaerosol Monitoring 

• SwisensEcosystem Bioaerosol Research 

Further benefits of SwisensAtomizer:

  • Preconfigured settings for various particle types
  • Simple principle and quick to use
  • Configuration possible via integrated UI and USB connection
  • Removable hood with HEPA filter
  • Battery operation of up to 6h
  • Protective transport box available on request

“Swisens has shown to be a service-oriented partner in any case, addressing requests diligently. Our suggestions have always been heard and have been systematically translated in technical improvements. In short, Swisens AG has shown to be strongly oriented towards client and market needs. Finally, the tests we performed with Swisens AG resulted in a fruitful scientific exchange. In all, it is for us a great pleasure to recommend Swisens AG for operational or research projects in the field of automatic pollen measurements.”

“I speak on behalf of my colleagues who are Urban Observatory Principal Investigators and Research Collaborators from the University of Manchester that we have rarely seen, or been provided with such exemplary support as that provided by Swisens. Swisens customer support has been remarkable given the current situation, from remote training and commissioning to rapid support for hardware and software tools specific to our needs to extremely well organised seminars that actually focus on customer feedback and needs. In particular we have been impressed with the Swisens open source data approach and their attention to different users specific needs. Swisens technical innovations has already generated enormous interest in a bioaerosol-aerobiology community that until recently has been limited with respect to real-world and near real-time detection and importantly quantification of airborne bioaerosol concentrations. Their approach has developed significant rapport with multi-disciplinary researchers and Swisens should be lauded for this.”

Finnish Meteorological Institute

“The Finnish Meteorological Institute is very satisfied with the cooperation of Swisens AG. The agreed research and development programme is progressing well and mutual openness and collaborative atmosphere strongly supports it. Swisens participated in a workshop and supported the scientists in recording the test data based on the cooperation agreement. A particular outcome of the workshop was a new procedure for the calibration of real-time monitoring systems based on the SwisensAtomizer. It has been proven to deliver cleaner results than the approaches tried so far in different countries. FMI is very satisfied with cooperation of Swisens AG. Our suggestions regarding software tools were quickly accepted and implemented by Swisens engineers. We are indeed happy to work with Swisens and start opening real-time data to professionals in Finland.”

“Being able to aerosolize different powder samples in the lab to perform experiments related to occupational health has been one of our challenges. With the SwisensAtomizer at hand, we now have a small device which helps us to produce a stable dust atmosphere to load filters in a consistent manner, serving as calibration filters for later analysis. Swisens AG has always shown great support concerning our demands on the SwisensAtomizer. We are delighted to collaborate with Swisens AG.”
