Purpose:For collecting and storing air samples, especially for volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with a focus on minimizing analyte loss and reactivity.
Types:
Siltek-treated:For maximum inertness and stability, particularly for sulfur VOCs that can react with stainless steel surfaces.
Electropolished Stainless Steel:Treated for high-quality, passivated surfaces that maintain compound stability for methods like TO-14A/TO-15/TO-15A.
Volumes:Available in various sizes, such as 1 L, 3 L, 6 L, and 15 L.
Allows for duplicate sampling using one or two flow controllers and a precise splitter for accurate sample distribution.
Valves:
High-quality, metal-to-metal seal valves are available in both stainless steel and Siltek-treated options, with configurations such as 2-port and 3-port RAVE+ valves.
Connectors:
Various connectors, such as the Siltek-treated or stainless steel connector for connecting passive sampling kits, and Ashcroft Gauge Connectors for connecting different fittings.
Carrying Cases/Boxes:
All-aluminum cases designed to hold two 6 L canisters securely.
Carrying boxes with plastic handles to simplify transport.
Passive Sampling Kits:
Kits designed for passive air sampling, which can include a fitting with an orifice, a frit, and other components.
