Partector TEM Sampler for Nanoparticles
The naneos Partector TEM sampler is a compact, high-performance tool that combines real-time nanoparticle monitoring with direct electron microscopy sampling. Designed for both survey and sampling tasks, it enables users to identify nanoparticle sources in workplaces and collect particles directly onto standard TEM grids—the gold standard for single-particle analysis. What sets the Partector TEM apart is its ability to automatically detect optimal sample coverage and stop sampling at precisely the right moment. This ensures consistently usable TEM samples—no more empty or overloaded grids. Its lightweight and portable design, field-replaceable TEM grid holders, and real-time sample coverage display make it ideal for on-site occupational safety assessments, nanomaterial studies, and advanced particle characterization.
