Understanding which features you need in a particle counter is a difficult task. This article will identify the various features available and help you choose which are relevant to your application. The right particle counter will depend on the monitoring environment, communications, monitoring purposes, desired flow rate, and particle size you choose to monitor. Pharmaceutical manufacturing has special monitoring requirements that are not completely addressed here.
