TSI Inc. of Shoreview, Minn., has been tapped to provide air-quality devices to officials who will measure pollution levels during the Olympics. The Chinese capital is known to be heavily polluted, and the city officials have promised to bring air quality to World Health Organization standards during the Aug. 8-24 Games.
TSI’s Q-Trak indoor-air-quality meter, the DustTrak aerosol monitor, and several particle measurement and filter testing devices are among those being used to monitor indoor and outdoor conditions at the Olympics.
