2.5 Operating principle
Coriolis® patented technology is highly innovative: based on a cyclone type
operation, it concentrates airborne biological particles into a liquid sample.
Air is rst aspirated into the cone (pre-lled with collection liquid) in a
whirling motion to form a vortex.
Particles are pulled against the wall due to centrifugal force and separated
from air to be concentrated in the liquid.
2.6 Normative requirements
BERTIN TECHNOLOGIES is certied ISO 9001:2000 (BVQI) and
certied Qualifas (notation A)
Coriolis®µ is in compliance with CE requirements (cf. Conformity
declaration delivered with the equipment)
Biological and physical eciency of Coriolis® technology are
validated by an independent testing agency HPA (Health
Protection Agency, Porton Down, UK), according to the ISO
14698-1 standard requirements (“Cleanrooms and associated
controlled environments - Biocontamination control”).
According to ISO14698-1 standard:
The impaction device should have an impact speed on the collection medium:
(speed of entry in the liquid cyclone for Coriolis®)
1. high enough to allow the capture of viable particles down to
approximately 1 μm, and
2. low enough not to damage fragile viable particles
The device should have a sucient ow rate to collect 1 m3 in a reasonable
time, without signicant drying of the sampling medium;

Collection Liquid
Particles

Page 13Page 12
USER MANUAL
CORIOLIS µ
Coriolis® technology respects the requirements concerning impact speed
of micro-organisms, as far as it allows an ecient recovery of viable
particles.
Coriolis®µ allows to collect the required 1 m3 in less than 4 minutes,
and its liquid sample avoids any problem of medium drying. Thereby it
enables more sampling in less time, with possible dierent and faster
analysis. Coriolis®µ allows a better and easier contamination monitoring.
