The primary reason it is positioned as one of the world's most capable sampling pumps: Sensidyne describes the product as “The Industry’s Most Versatile Pump”. QuadMode™ combines constant flow and constant pressure control across low and high flow ranges in the same unit, without an external low-flow adapter. From NOVEL's perspective, the strongest differentiator of the GilAir Plus is its capability to cover widely diverse occupational hygiene methods with a single pump.

Product Specifications

  • The Only Air Sampling Pump Incorporating All Desired Features
    Gilian GilAir Plus is a new-generation sampling pump developed taking into account user demands and field research. It can be used with suitable media and accessories in dust, aerosol, gas, and VOC/vapour sampling; it also supports gas bag sampling applications.

  • Low and High Flow Applications in a Single Instrument
    Thanks to QuadMode™ technology, it covers an operating range of 20–5,100 cc/min in constant flow and 1–5,100 cc/min in constant pressure without an external low-flow adapter. It reduces the requirement for separate pumps for low and medium/high flow samplings.

  • Superior Features, Compact Design
    Despite its wide operating range, its portable form factor is well suited to personal occupational hygiene sampling. Flow rate, sampling runtime, volume, battery status, and operating parameters can be viewed on the large LCD screen.

  • Motion Detection, Bluetooth, and Data Management
    Motion detection and Bluetooth connectivity on compatible configurations help inspect the pump without disturbing the worker. Datalog/STP models and the Gilian Connect infrastructure support the management of sampling records.

  • Temperature and Pressure Correction
    The STP model measures ambient temperature and barometric pressure, allowing it to correct sampling volume and flow to selected standard conditions; it supports flow accuracy against variations arising from altitude.

  • Charging, Programming, and SmartCal™
    Optional docking stations facilitate charging, data transfer, reporting, and automated calibration routines on compatible models. Advanced functions such as programmed start/stop, constant flow or constant pressure modes, and fault management are provided.

  • Bluetooth Capability and Smart Field Operation

    New technologies:
    • Worker/device motion sensor
    • Bluetooth connectivity and remote inspection
    • Gilian Connect mobile application support
    • QuadMode™ air sampling technology
    • Selectable automatic fault recovery
    • STP temperature and pressure correction (STP model)
    • Real-time data acquisition and reporting facilities (model dependent)

    Sampling and Standards Approach

    With personal air sampling pumps such as the GilAir Plus, the pump alone does not determine the analytical result. Flow rate, sampling head, filter or sorbent tube, sampling duration, and analytical method must be selected together in accordance with the applicable national or international standard. ISO 13137:2013 is one of the principal references for the performance requirements of personal air sampling pumps. Verifying the flow rate with an appropriate flow calibrator before and after sampling is recommended.

    Complementary and Related Products

    A correct sampling system is established by selecting the pump, method-compliant sampling media/head, and flow calibrator in conjunction.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Gilian GilAir Plus

    What flow range does the Gilian GilAir Plus operate in?
    According to current manufacturer data, it can operate in the range of 20–5,100 cc/min in constant flow mode and 1–5,100 cc/min in constant pressure mode.
    Is an external low-flow adapter required for low flow sampling?
    No. QuadMode technology delivers constant flow or constant pressure control across low and high flows within the same pump; the manufacturer indicates that no external low-flow adapter is required for these operating ranges.
    Can the GilAir Plus be used for dust, gas, and VOC sampling?
    Yes. It can be used in sampling applications for dusts, aerosols, gases, VOCs, and vapours using filter cassettes, cyclones, IOM samplers, sorbent tubes, and other occupational hygiene accessories suited to the sampling media and method.
    Is the GilAir Plus compliant with ISO 13137?
    Sensidyne specifies compliance with ISO 13137:2013 for the GilAir Plus in current product literature. The flow rate, sampling media, and calibration requirements of the specific method to be applied must also be observed.
    What is the primary difference between the Basic, Datalog, and STP models?
    The Basic model focuses on core sampling functions. The Datalog model provides data logging and advanced programming. The STP model adds temperature and barometric pressure measurement along with correction to standard conditions.
    Does NOVEL provide calibration and technical support for the GilAir Plus?
    NOVEL provides technical support in Turkey for Gilian/Sensidyne air sampling solutions across product selection, application consultancy, training, maintenance, and calibration processes.
