REAL-TIME RCS MONITORING
DESIGNED FOR THE WORKER
The Trolex TX8100 AIR XS Silica Monitor is the first and only product in the world to detect and distinguish respirable crystalline silica (RCS) in real time. Designed to function in challenging industrial environments, it detects all forms of crystalline silica and can track changing levels of RCS in complex dust mixtures over time.

Yes. The manual states that AIR XS may show cross-responsivity from poly-crystalline particles in the local environment, with severity depending on particle density and crystalline properties.
Because of these possible interferences, the manual frames AIR XS as an indicative real-time monitoring device rather than a regulatory compliance method.
Yes, via MODBUS RTU (RS485) or MODBUS TCP/IP (Ethernet) for integration with SCADA systems and Aethair’s Thiamis.
AIR XS has two user-configurable alarms for warning of a selected particulate threshold breach. From Main Menu, select Alarms, use Detail to view current alarms, and Configure to set channel, threshold value, latching or non-latching mode, and units.
To save changes, exit using the left arrow key and confirm the Settings saved dialogue.
