<strong>Atmospheric</strong> <strong>Corrosion</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong> <strong>Protects</strong><br />

<strong>Priceless</strong> <strong>Artifacts</strong> from Airborne Molecular Contaminants<br />

Real-time device measures destructive potential of environment<br />

Doraville, Ga.—For active, continuous reactivity monitoring in environments where gaseous<br />

pollutants are prevalent, <strong>Purafil</strong>’s OnGuard ® 3000 (OG3) <strong>Atmospheric</strong> <strong>Corrosion</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong> can gauge<br />

the real-time effects of airborne molecular contaminants (AMC) to artwork and archival material.<br />

The OG3 uses copper-and silver-plated quartz crystal microbalance sensors to measure the air<br />

quality in environments that house papers, artwork and artifacts. The monitor also generates minuteby-minute<br />

corrosion level readings that:<br />

• predict and prevent degradation of priceless pieces of art<br />

• identify air quality trends<br />

• gauge temperature, relative humidity and differential room pressure<br />

• project the environment’s Air Quality Classification<br />

The OG3 can be operated independently as a data logger or can be wired directly into a<br />

building management system. Users can upload data to a personal computer for viewing and<br />

graphing, and they can adjust readings to reflect typical air quality levels in their environment.<br />

Additionally, the OnGuard OG3 allows users to access historical data by establishing and maintaining<br />

environmental classification databases; in turn, this information helps them to determine adequate<br />

conservation techniques.<br />
