Principle of Operation
Staplex Air Sampler draws low volumes of air through a filter by means of a rotary pump.
Various types and sizes of filter papers, glass fiber filter media, filter cassettes and activated carbon cartridges are suitable for collection of samples.
Flow rates are measured in liters per minute ( LPM) .
Staplex Low Volume Air Samplers maximize flow rate and minimize sampling time for many air quality testing procedures, making them faster and more productive than personal samplers.
Sampling Range
LV-2 : 15-35 LPM
LV-4 : 3-25 LPM
BS , BSA : 5-17 LPM
Flow Control:
Fully adjustable flow control valve on direct-reading rotometer, settable over the full flow range.
Accurate to 5% full scale.
Inlet
Luer-lok fitting ( standard) or tapered fitting ( optional)
Analysis of Collect Samples
Gravimetric, taring, ashing, microscopic count, phase contrast or electron scanning microscopy, comparator, x-ray fluorescence, etc. depending on substance being sampled.
Description :
Portable, lightweight Low Volume Air Samplers highly effective for accurate samples from immediate vicinity of sampler for air pollutants; asbestos fibers; smoke and smog; radioactive particles; industrial, governmental, hospital, home and office health and safety tests; atmospheric conditions; mine air hazards; factory dusts; research and testing, etc. including chemical, radiological and toxicological analyses. Suitable for mobile or fixed position operation in normal non-explosive atmospheres.
