Swisens

Our main partner

Detect what’s in the air!

Swisens develops, produces, and supplies instruments and solutions for aerosol measurement and monitoring. Swisens revolutionizes environmental and process monitoring with new methods for real-time measurement and automatic particle identification.

Their solutions enable the detection of bioaerosols, pollutants, and other solid particles of interest to industry, science, and healthcare. In close cooperation with relevant stakeholders in this field, they actively contribute to improving health, scientific knowledge, and productivity worldwide.

Applications

The solutions.

Automatic and real-time pollen monitoring

Interest in airborne particles arose in the 19th century when they were linked to epidemic diseases. The United Kingdom and France led the study, developing methodologies and devices such as the Hirst collector (1952), now the standard in the European Aeroallergen Network, which operates more than 600 stations in 36 countries.

Automatic monitoring of spores and other aerosols

Automatic monitoring of spores and other aerosols: The Swisens Poleno device measures particles from 1 to 300 μm, including coarse aerosols according to the USEPA. These can remain suspended for minutes to days, and their distribution, influenced by meteorological conditions, can extend hundreds of kilometers from their emission source.

Frequently asked questions

What do you want to know?

What range of particles can it measure?
The Swisens Poleno can measure PM1, PM2.5, PM10, and all particles up to a size of 300 μm.

What information do I obtain from the observed particles?
The SwisensPoleno provides a huge amount of information about each observed particle. Holographic images allow for analysis of each particle’s volume, size, and shape (double holographic image taken at 90°), while the fluorescence stage allows for the determination of each particle’s excitation response to LED sources with different wavelengths (280, 365, and 405 nm).
