Series 575 VOC Chek Validated Passive Samplers

Overview

Highly reliable and accurate, the SKC Passive Sampler for Organic Vapours collects organic vapours without the use of a pump. The sampler is validated for short-term and eight-hour sampling and 24-hour indoor sampling for some compounds.

Use the sampler to test exposure to VOCs such as toluene, tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene, xylenes, ethylbenzene, 2-butanone (MEK), hexone (MIBK), benzene, butyl acetates, and styrene. Models exclusive for Ethylene oxide and Methanol are also available.
