Passive Sampler Downloads A diffusion barrier maintains sample uptake by molecular diffusion independent of wind velocity. The sorbent is chosen to best collect the chemical hazards of interest.
SKC 575 Series Passive Samplers are validated for a full 8 hours, that's TWICE the limit value! This assures the integrity of the sampler, so you only need ONE sampler to get a true 8-hour TWA!
3. Stop sampling by replacing cap and record stop time. Send the sampler to an accredited laboratory for analysis.
Validation
Passive sampling is quite different from active sampling with sorbent tubes. With this fact in mind, NIOSH established validation protocols for evaluating the performance of passive samplers. 1 Protocol validation was developed so that manufacturers could produce passive samplers that reliably assess airborne levels.
Validation Levels
Full Passive monitor has passed all NIOSH protocol validation requirements for sampling rate, desorption efficiency, humidity effects, reverse diffusion, storage stability test for reactive compounds whose stability is suspect, and a factorial study that includes interfering compounds. This is the most rigorous test possible and includes all parameters that can affect sampling accuracy (formerly referred to as Level 5). Bi-Level A key member of an homologous series has passed full validation and all other members have passed partial. The validity of this has been shown by Guild et al. 2 (formerly referred to as Level 5B).
Partial Passive monitor has passed NIOSH protocol requirements for sampling rate, desorption efficiency, humidity effects, reverse diffusion, and storage stability test for reactive compounds. Partial validations are not recommended for compliance sampling. Calculated Uptake rate that is calculated from the physical properties of the analyte and geometry of the sampler. Calculated rates are not based upon direct laboratory testing of the analyte with the sampler. Calculated validations are not recommended for compliance sampling.
