MICROBIAL AIR SAMPLER MAS-100 NT® HEPA and MAS-100 NT Ex® HEPA
HIGHEST COLLECTION EFFICIENCY AND PROTECTION FROM CONTAMINATION CARRY-OVER
The premium version of our portable MAS-100 instruments, the MAS-100 NT, as well as its explosion-proof version MAS-100 NT Ex, are specified for use in class 5 cleanrooms according to ISO 14644-1 (GMP grade A). The built-in fan emits essentially no particles, therefore no additional air outlet filter is required.
For maximum protection, the filter versions of the instruments - MAS-100 NT HEPA and MAS-100 NT Ex HEPA - minimize the probability of particle carryover when moving from a lower to a higher cleanroom class. The particle filter is placed at the very end of the air duct. This arrangement reduces the dead volume within the air sampler, minimizes the risk of particle transfer, and maintains the full functionality of the MAS-100 NT or MAS-100 NT Ex.
- Equipped with factory-fitted, self-replaceable HEPA H13 filter
- Can be used in ISO 14644-1 cleanroom class 5/GMP Grade A without air outlet filter
- Service life of the filter at least for a recommended calibration interval of one year.
- Perforated lids are autoclavable and interchangeable between instruments
- Can also be used without air outlet filter in ISO cleanroom class 5/GMP Grade A
- Filter life of at least one year recommended calibration interval
- Perforated lids are autoclavable and interchangeable between instruments
- Compatible with different nutrient plates, e.g. ready-to-use 90mm standard-, 55mm contact- or Growth DirectTM plates
- Integrated mass flow sensor with temperature and pressure compensation for environment-independent air sampling
- Precision seal between perforated lid and sampling head without sealing ring facilitates cleaning and disinfection
- Rotatable sampling head for air sampling with horizontal air flow
Especially for the pharmaceutical industry

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE
The function of the built-in air outlet filter has been tested according to scientific standards. In the Application Note 'Air outlet particle filter for viable air sampler MAS-100 NT' you will find comprehensible documentation on the following topics:
- Proof that MAS-100 NT and MAS-100 NT Ex instruments without air outlet filter can be used without any concerns in ISO 14644-1 class 5 (GMP grade A) environments.
- Filtration efficiency of the additionally installed air outlet filter
- Prevention of particle contamination carry-over between cleanroom classes
- Lifetime testing of the air outlet filter in contaminated environments
- Influence of the HEPA filter on airflow calibration
