Large Aerosol Particle Monitor - Model AES-LPM

Large Aersol Particle Monitor – AES-LPM

Continuously monitor particles from 5 μm to 50 μm in paint, coating, printing, glass, and industrial manufacturing processes

NOTE: Please allow 3 weeks of lead time for shipping online orders.

The Kanomax AES-LPM is a compact, cost-effective large particle sensing monitor designed for continuous contamination monitoring in manufacturing and industrial environments. It detects particles at 5 μm and provides reference measurements at 10 μm, 20 μm, 30 μm, and 50 μm, helping facilities identify larger particles that may settle on products, interfere with production, or contribute to visible quality defects.

A four-level LED display provides an immediate indication of large-particle conditions, while alarm, Ethernet, analog voltage, Wi-Fi, and RS-485 outputs support integration with facility monitoring and process-control systems. The AES-LPM is particularly well suited for paint and coating booths, glass manufacturing, printing operations, precision production areas, and other processes where larger particles can affect product quality or equipment performance.

What Is the AES-LPM Large Aerosol Particle Monitor?

The AES-LPM is designed to continuously monitor larger particles that may fall, settle, or adhere to products and manufacturing equipment. These particles can cause coating imperfections, glass surface defects, printing problems, contamination of precision components, and other quality-control issues.

The monitor detects particles at 5 μm and provides reference measurements at 10 μm, 20 μm, 30 μm, and 50 μm. This detection range makes the AES-LPM a practical solution for monitoring visible and process-affecting contamination that may not be adequately represented by fine-particle monitoring alone.

How Does the AES-LPM Help Prevent Product Defects?

Continuous large-particle monitoring helps operators identify changing contamination conditions before they lead to widespread production defects. The system updates its data every second and uses a 300-second measurement time to monitor particle conditions consistently.

An easy-to-read, four-level LED display provides an immediate visual indication of particle conditions. When abnormal particle levels are detected, personnel can investigate possible contamination sources, evaluate cleaning procedures, and take corrective action before additional products are affected.

Flexible Outputs for Facility and Process Integration

The AES-LPM offers alarm, Ethernet, analog voltage, Wi-Fi, and RS-485 outputs for integration with compatible monitoring and control systems. These connectivity options allow the instrument to support standalone alerts, centralized data collection, remote monitoring, building management systems, SCADA platforms, PLCs, and other process-control configurations.

An optional CHU-L151-11A-AES sensor adds continuous temperature and relative humidity monitoring. This additional environmental data can help personnel evaluate conditions that may influence particle generation, material behavior, coating quality, or process stability.

Where Can the AES-LPM Be Used?

The compact AES-LPM can be installed near critical processes, inspection areas, production equipment, or other locations where large-particle contamination may affect quality. Multiple monitors can also be deployed throughout a facility to observe conditions at several production or inspection points.

The AES-LPM displays particle measurements in pcs/5 min under its default condition. Compatible configurations can also report measurements in pcs/m³, pcs/cf, or pcs/L, supporting different monitoring and data-management requirements.

Applications

  • Paint and Coating Booths: Continuously monitor particles that may settle on wet paint or coated surfaces, causing bumps, inclusions, uneven finishes, or other visible defects.
  • Automotive Painting Lines: Detect changing particle conditions that may reduce finish quality, increase rework, or lower production yield during vehicle and component painting.
  • Glass Manufacturing and Inspection: Monitor larger particles that may contaminate glass surfaces during production, handling, coating, assembly, or final inspection.
  • Printing Operations: Identify airborne and settling particles that may interfere with print quality, contaminate printed materials, or affect sensitive printing equipment.
  • Electrical Panels and Sensitive Equipment: Monitor particle accumulation around electrical enclosures, control panels, electronic systems, and other equipment where contamination may affect reliability.
  • Precision Manufacturing: Detect large particles that may interfere with close-tolerance components, sensitive assemblies, surface treatments, or finished-product quality.
  • Product Inspection Areas: Monitor contamination near inspection stations where surface particles could be mistaken for product defects or interfere with optical inspection systems.
  • Multi-Point Facility Monitoring: Install multiple monitors near critical production processes to identify localized contamination events and compare conditions across a facility.
  • Other Industrial Processes: Track larger particles in environments where contamination may affect product quality, process consistency, cleaning schedules, or equipment performance.
