New Tripp Lite Surge Suppressor ISOBAR4ULTRA- 4-Outlet 6-Foot Cord 2200 Joules Gray

Loaded with a generous combination of high quality components, near indestructible all-metal case and unique noise filtration system, the Isobar offers the highest level of protection attainable in a multi-outlet strip. Robust surge suppression circuits with sine-wave tracking offer extreme levels of protection against the heaviest surge conditions exceeding IEEE 587 category A B specifications and reducing 6,000V test surges to harmless levels under 35 volts.

Captured image showing microscopic fibrous-glass fibers, asbestos fiber (bundle), and other ambient particles under 400x magnification using Phase-Contrast Microscopy (PCM) optical illumination method. This sample was collected during actual glovebag-abatement of asbestos pipe insulation inside mechanical room with fiberglass duct insulation. Note the "large" size of the fiberglass fibers relative to the 100-micrometer diameter graticule cirlce.

Certain fiber-counting rules using the PCM analysis method require that the fiberglass fibers be counted as "asbestos" (including any other interference particles that may meet the specific definition of a "fiber", such particles possibly as: cellulose, artificial man-made fibers, diatomes, hyphal fragments, organic structures, etc., may all be influential during counting process). Although an obvious interference to accurate airborne asbestos fiber concentrations, the non-asbestos fibers may adversely contribute toward a "positive-bias" of results.

Among other scientific applications, PCM is a fairly common, standard analytical technique utilized for testing air monitoring samples for airborne fiber concentrations pertaining to asbestos-related work, such as projects related to: abatement, repair, clean-up, worker exposure, ambient background, etc.

Further, PCM equipment is relatively inexpensive, portable, and sturdy enough that it can be setup directly on many project sites, a particularly convenient advantage. This testing method is currently so routine, that if one is familiar with an asbestos abatement work project that has occurred or will occur, it's quite likely that PCM air monitoring is involved.

However, while used as an acceptable standard method for determining worker exposure levels to airborne fiber concentrations and for "clearance" of post-abatement work areas, there are a number of significant issues regarding over-reliance of PCM for airborne asbestos detection.

One main cause for concern are serious limitations of PCM's optical resolution. Unknown quantities of asbestos fibers too fine for observation at 400x may not be discernible using PCM, but are better detected using more advanced and asbestos-specific imaging techniques such as transmission-electron microscopy (TEM). PCM may be considered more as a simple "screening" method and possibly inadequate for truly accurate analyses of airborne asbestos fiber concentrations; another debate that typically boils down to Health vs. Cost, as TEM sample analysis is comparatively many times more costly than PCM sample testing fees.

Also depicted in this image, is a standardized Walton-Beckett graticule with incremental graduated x-y axes measured in micrometer units; diameter is approx. 100-µm across. Encircling the graticule area are measured scale markers in 3:1 length-to-width aspect ratio for visual reference. The green color is from a green-tinted light interference filter.
