Breathe Easy: Enhanced Lab Safety with TEL’s Upgraded Airflow Controller

At TEL, we’ve made it our mission to develop world-leading airflow controllers and monitors so that you can focus on what matters, keeping your lab safe, compliant, and energy-efficient. With our latest upgrade, we’ve taken lab safety a step further, offering you peace of mind with a smart, integrated solution that helps you breathe easy.

Introducing Our Upgraded Airflow Controller with Integrated Gas Sensor

We’ve upgraded our AFA4000/E VAV airflow controller to include a remote organic vapor gas sensor (AFA4000/E/GS). Now, you can continuously monitor carbon filter saturation levels in your fume cupboards, hoods, and cabinets. Why does this matter? Because when filters get saturated, they stop protecting against harmful chemicals, putting your team at risk.

Our sensor tracks filter saturation in real time, showing you exactly when a filter needs replacing via a dynamic graph. When it detects saturation, it triggers an alarm so you can act fast, ensuring your lab stays safe and compliant.

No More Guesswork, Just Protection

Before now, lab managers had to rely on rough estimates or manufacturer lifespan guidelines to know when to replace filters. TEL’s upgraded solution takes the guesswork out of the equation. It not only detects breakthrough but also tracks the total time the filter has been in use. When it’s time for a change, you’ll know.

Retrofitting Made Easy

Whether you’re installing new equipment or looking to upgrade existing systems, our airflow controller with gas sensor can be easily retrofitted into your current setup. That means you can enhance safety and efficiency without the need for expensive overhauls.
