Durag Group GRIMM EDM 180 Approved PM monitor

The GRIMM EDM 180 is an approved environmental dust monitor designed for real-time measurement of particulate matter concentration in ambient air, including PM10, PM2.5, and PM1. Using light scattering at single particles, the EDM 180 provides continuous particulate monitoring and is already used in government networks and institutions in more than 30 countries. DURAG positions the EDM 180 as a leading solution for ambient air quality monitoring where approved PM measurement, dependable performance, and long-term operation are important.

The EDM 180 offers real-time PM values and particle number monitoring across 31 size channels, with a particle size range of 0.25 to 32 μm. DURAG also highlights approvals and certifications including US-EPA, UK-MCERTS, and CN-CMA, as well as demonstrations of equivalence in over 20 countries. Other key features include a fully automatic monitoring system with remote access, low power consumption, no consumables, no radioactive source, and integrated temperature and relative humidity sensing.

Available in Canada through Westech Industrial, the GRIMM EDM 180 supports ambient air monitoring programs that require reliable particulate data, practical installation, and long-term serviceability. It is a strong fit for environmental monitoring networks, research applications, and other ambient air monitoring projects where approved PM monitoring is required.
