What does the PFE-50 measure for defense applications?
It characterizes particulate filtration efficiency across controlled particle challenges, giving defense teams quantitative data for media design, supplier qualification and lot acceptance.
EXPERIENCE THE Most Advanced Particulate Filtration Efficiency Analyzer
M19 Particulate Filtration Efficiency Analyzer (PFE-50) for defense — AI-based, ultra-high-precision testing. Standards: ASTM F2299, EN 14683, EN 1822.
Model: PFE-50 · Industry: Defense
Technology principle
The M19 Particulate Filtration Efficiency Analyzer (PFE-50) measures particulate filtration efficiency across controlled particle challenges for materials used across defense and protective systems. Configured for military specifications, protective media qualification and supply-secure indigenous instrumentation, it delivers repeatable, audit-ready data so defense teams can qualify media, accelerate development and defend specification decisions. Referenced to ASTM F2299, EN 14683, EN 1822, the platform combines precise hardware control with electronic records suitable for regulated and industrial quality systems.
Applications
- Respirator filtration efficiency
- Collective air filtration
- HEPA/ULPA military shelters
- Aerosol challenge testing
Key capabilities
- Lightweight, compact and ergonomically engineered, the M19 Particulate Filtration Efficiency Analyzer (PFE-50) pairs a 15" capacitive touchscreen with enhanced pressure- and flow-control hardware, so operators run a full defense test sequence with minimal training and shorter cycle times. Available in aluminum or stainless-steel variants, it ships with real-time remote support, USB connectivity and remote-control automation. Domestic manufacturing in India and the USA keeps maintenance cost and downtime low, and a 2-year extended warranty is available.

Frequently asked questions
Which standards apply in defense workflows?
Typical references include ASTM F2299, EN 14683, EN 1822. Method templates can be aligned to your internal SOP and customer specifications.
How does the software support audits and quality systems?
Electronic signatures, tamper-proof audit trails, role-based access and PDF/CSV export support regulated and industrial quality workflows, including LIMS hand-off.
Can the instrument be customised for our materials?
Yes — sample holders, pressure/flow ranges and report templates can be configured for defense-specific media and acceptance criteria.
What are the advantages of indigenous manufacturing?
Make-in-India / USA build delivers faster service, spare-parts availability, lower cost of ownership and easier customisation — with extended warranty options.
