Firmware

Q. Is the firmware on the MET ONE 3400 series upgradable?
A. The MET ONE 3400’s firmware is normally updated annually to keep up with regulatory changes and to provide users with access to the latest functional enhancements.
Q. Do I have to send my MET ONE 3400 portable air particle counter back to the factory for upgrades?
A. No - Upgrades can easily be performed on-site by a Hach MET ONE Field Service Engineer via USB memory stick.  Normally, particle size recalibration is not required.
Q. My Standard Operating Procedures were all written around my existing counters. Do I need to upgrade?
A. No.  All periodic release versions of MET ONE 3400 firmware are supported by Hach MET ONE factory and field service as well as technical support.

ISO 21501-4 calibrations for the MET ONE 3400 Series portable air particle counter

Q. What are the benefits of embracing the ISO 21501-4 particle counter calibration standard?
A. The particle counting instrument’s repeatability and reproducibility is ensured regardless of model type.
Q. What is the difference between the ISO 21501-4 and traditional particle counter calibrations?
A. ISO 21501-4 still uses NIST traceable standard particles to perform the size calibration.  However in addition to size calibration, extensive post-calibration performance tests are conducted to assure actual particle count accuracy.
Q. ISO 21501-4 performance be maintained over the life of the instrument?
A. Yes, the ISO 21501-4 calibration is designed to be performed during the normal particle counter calibration intervals.
Q. Are MET ONE 3400 portable air particle counters required to be sent to the factory for the ISO 21501-4 calibration?
A. No, with the industry's largest global network of local service offices, we are the only company that can deliver fully compliant on-site service for your instruments, including full ISO 21501-4 calibrations. Each of our automated particle counting monitoring solutions report the calibration status of each instrument and proactively notify you of upcoming calibrations to ensure full service compliance of all batch production and environmental monitoring measurements.
