When investing in equipment for ISO 16890, many buyers ask:
👉 Why do ISO 16890 test systems vary so much in price?
Instead of a fixed number, the cost depends on multiple technical and application factors. Understanding these factors will help you make the right investment decision.
1. Why There Is No Fixed Price
ISO 16890 test systems are highly customized.
The final cost depends on:
- Required accuracy
- Automation level
- System configuration
- Testing capacity
👉 This is why prices can vary significantly between different suppliers and solutions.
2. Key Factors That Influence Cost
2.1 測定精度
Higher accuracy requires:
- Advanced particle measurement systems
- 安定した風量制御
- Precision sensors
👉 Higher accuracy → more complex system → higher cost
2.2 System Configuration
A complete system may include:
- Airflow control unit
- エアロゾル生成システム
- Particle measurement system
- Dust feeding module
- 放電 (コンディショニング) ユニット
👉 The more integrated the system, the higher the cost—but also the higher the reliability
2.3 自動化レベル
- Manual operation → lower initial cost
- Automated systems → higher efficiency and consistency
👉 Automation reduces long-term labor cost and errors
2.4 Testing Purpose
Different use cases require different system levels:
| 応用 | Requirement |
|---|---|
| R&D | Flexibility |
| Quality Control | 安定性 |
| Certification | High accuracy & コンプライアンス |
👉 The more demanding the application, the higher the system requirement
3. Why Low Price Can Be Misleading
Choosing equipment based only on price may lead to:
❌ Inaccurate test results
❌ 再現性が悪い
❌ Failure to meet ISO 16890 要件
❌ Higher long-term costs
👉 多くの場合, cheap systems cost more in the long run
4. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Matters More
Instead of focusing on initial price, 考慮する:
- System reliability
- Maintenance requirements
- Calibration cost
- エネルギー消費量
- Service support
👉 A stable system reduces hidden costs significantly
5. 適切なシステムを選択する方法
To make the best decision:
✔ Define your testing goals
✔ Evaluate system stability and accuracy
✔ Consider long-term usage
✔ Choose a supplier with strong technical support
