Glass Midget Impingers

Impingers are Pyrex glass bubble tubes designed for the collection of airborne hazards into a liquid medium.

When using a personal air sampler, a known volume of air bubbles is pumped through the glass tube that contains a liquid specified in the method. The liquid is then analysed to determine airborne concentrations. An impinger may be mounted on the side of an air sample pump or put into a holster and placed near a worker's breathing zone.

SKC impingers (glass bubblers) have graduations that are accurate to within 0.5 ml for each increment. This helps reduce volumetric measurements required in the field and in the laboratory, while also saving time and money.
