There are two remote sampling assemblies that allow the microbial sampling to be taken in locations where the microbial sampler itself will not fit, or is otherwise undesirable. One version of the remote sampling assembly has a port at the bottom for connecting to the micro¬bial sampler; the second version connects to the side of the remote head. This allows for optimum positioning of the assembly, and should be determined before ordering the assembly. Both versions have a bottom and side threaded hole for mounting, and both versions are available in either aluminum or stainless steel.
The other elements of remote microbial sampling are the aluminum adapter (P/N 01210104), pictured at left, which replaces the sample head on the microbial sampler, and ¾ inch (ID) tubing (P/N 73306100) that connects the adapter tubing to the remote head. The tubing is sold by the foot, and can be up to 20 feet in length.

| CI-90/90+ Validation Document |
03090002 |
What is the validation document?
The operation of the particle counter is a product of the firmware. Validation, then, is essentially a testing of the firmware (the operating system of the particle counter.) Each time the firmware is upgraded, the firmware has to be validated.
The testing of the firmware is documented in the validation document, which contains the results, and even print-outs of the validation testing. Each parameter is tested, and calculations made by the firmware are verified with a calculator.
Many companies use the validation document as part of their validation process, reducing the amount of actual testing that they have to do. There is a nominal charge for the reproduction of the engineering validation test document. Each document is model specific. (Validation is a design test, and is not part of the manufacturing testing of individual units.)
Compliance
We do not, at this time, have third party certification or accreditation. We are operating a quality system based on ISO 9001. (We expect to be ready for a certification audit in 2011.)
ISO 17025 is a third party accreditation standard for calibration labs. It incorporates aspects of ISO 9001 with elements of ISO 10012, with additional requirements that a lab
Calibration system standards
Climet complies with the calibration system standards ANSI Z540 and ISO 10012. The calibration certificates issued with our instruments comply with the requirements of these standards.
Particle counter calibration and testing standards
The ISO 21501-4 standard for particle counter calibration and testing was released in 2007. It effectively supersedes the Japanese Industrial Standard, JIS 9921, which established standards for 50% and 100% count efficiency. The new standard added a specification for resolution, and expressed zero count testing as a false count rate.
Climet particle counters with manufacturing dates at least as old as 1996 have passed the new standard—we are the only manufacturer that did not need to redesign to meet the standard.
