A description is given of the laser scattering method to measure PM10, PM2.5 and PM1 dusts in confirmed environments (museums, libraries, archives, art galleries, etc.). Such equipment presents many advantages, in comparison with those which are actually in use, not only from an analytic but also from a functional point of view.
