Organic Vapour Passive Samplers

Sampling rates for over 300 compounds for ppm-Level Organic Vapours

SKC has scientifically validated the sampling rate of the VOC Chek 575 passive samplers along with other critical sampling parameters to meet OSHA/ASTM/ANSI requirements. SKC VOC Chek 575 Passive Samplers are identified as a viable alternative to active sampling in several OSHA methods.

the information
  • Highly accurate and reliable
    • Proven performers in the laboratory and in the field
    • Extensively tested and documented
  • Decrease sampling costs
    • Collect most compounds with one sampler for up to a full 8 hour shift eliminating multiple trips to the worksite
    • One sampler + one analysis = money saved
    • SKC sorbents have a larger surface area for higher capacities
    • Economical solvent desorption and GC analysis
  • Variety of samplers available
    • Only SKC offers a choice of sorbents to better target specific contaminants
    • Specific samplers availabe for styrene and methanol
    • Sampling rates for over 300 compounds
    • Proper sorbent selection means no reverse diffusion
  • Meet ASTM D6246-08 and ANSI/ISEA 104-1998 (r 2009) standards
  • So easy to use – no pump or training required
