Industrial Hygiene Services

Industrial Hygiene Monitoring Tests Conducted: Airborne Contaminants

• Particulates (Total, PM 10, PM 5.0, PM 2.5) – using continuous data logging equipment capable of over 14,000 data points
• Combustible / Hazardous Gases – Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH), NO, NO2, NOX, SOX, SO2
• Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) & Semi-Volatile Organic Compounds (SVOC’s)
• Total / Respirable Dusts & Fibers – establishing of personnel compliance with 8Hr Time Weighted Average (TWA) regulatory method specifications for Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL’s)
• Heavy Metals / Welding Fumes and Metal or Welding Dusts, Fumes, Particulates in air: (Cd, Cu, Cr&CrIII, Pb, Mn, Mo, Fe, Zn, Sn, Ni)
• Sound/Noise Level Monitoring- Threshold Limit Value (TLV) or 8 Hr TWA, 24 Hr Workplace exposure - utilizing Class I & Class II continuous data logging NLM equipment capable of measuring over 32,000 data points with user defined parameter settings.
• Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) Inspection and Bulk material sampling – includes Chrysotile, Amosite, Crocidolite, Anthophylite, Tremilite, Actinolite - Asbestos analysis of bulk material samples by Visual identification – Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) Dispersion Staining (DS).

NOTE: For suspect Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) sampling & analysis projects, Lonestar utilizes trained inspectors & in-house permanent & mobile laboratory facility providing analysis and quantification of asbestos/non-asbestos fiber types & concentration
