View

Particle Measuring Systems (PMS) provides instruments and expertise to control contamination in ultra-clean manufacturing environments, such as pharmaceutical and semiconductor production. Its products include laser particle counters, particle spectrometers, and comprehensive Facility Monitoring Systems that count and measure airborne particles to monitor cleanrooms and other controlled spaces. The devices collect data on particle size and concentration, perform real-time monitoring, and trigger alarms to help maintain contamination-free conditions. PMS differentiates itself through a long history dating back to 1972, a spaceflight heritage, a broad patent portfolio, and its role as a global provider of established, gold-standard monitoring solutions within a larger productivity-focused group (Spectris). Its goal is to help manufacturers keep clean facilities, improve product quality and yield, and reduce risk by providing reliable, scalable contamination-control tools and expertise.
