UKAS Awards First Accreditation for Particle Size Analysis


The United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) has awarded the first calibration accreditation for particle size analysis. The PMT (GB) Limited laboratory, based in Malvern, was awarded accredited status following a rigorous assessment programme.

Particle counters are vital tools for measuring contaminant particles in controlled environments, such as cleanrooms. These instruments are used across many sectors and applications where accuracy is imperative, including pharmaceutical manufacturers, semiconductor companies, hospitals and cleanroom validation. Using optical techniques they can measure particles of various sizes, ranging from 0.3 μm to 25 μm for aerosol devices and from 2 μm to 30 μm for liquid devices.
