This is because during sampling, contaminants will cling to the walls of the cassette from electrostatic forces. With approximately 35% less surface area in a 2-piece cassette vs a 3-piece cassette, there is less surface area for contaminants to cling to and thus more contaminant where it should be — on the filter membrane. 37mm 3-Piece Cassette Configuration 3-piece cassettes provide flexibility because they can be used for both “open face” and “closed face” sampling as well as to connect to cyclones. The main disadvantage would be that 3-piece cassettes have more static charge than 2-piece cassettes resulting in more potential for sample loss. 25mm 3-Piece Asbestos Style Cassette Configuration 25mm 3-piece asbestos style cassettes feature a 50mm long cowl and can be used for both “open face” and “closed face” sampling. These housings are available with a static conductive cowl or in a clear styrene material. The term “closed faced” sampling refers to using a 37mm cassette with the inlet in place and only the plugs removed. Alternatively, “open faced” sampling refers to using a 3-piece cassette and removing the inlet piece, thus creating an “open face”. www.conceptcontrols.com 221 SAMPLING MEDIA Preloaded Filter Cassettes 37mm Air Sampling Filter Cassettes 25mm Air Sampling Filter Cassettes Concept Controls Inc. carries Zefon’s complete line of 37mm air sampling cassettes manufactured to meet all applicable NIOSH, OSHA and EPA standards.

Zefon match-weighed cassettes eliminate the need for weighing filters before sampling by providing 2 filters which are matched in weight. The top filter collects particulate and the bottom filter serves as a control. After sampling, both filters are weighed and the difference in weight equals the amount of contaminate collected. Features: • 2 or 3 piece housing • Preloaded, ready to use • Each cassette labeled with serial number • Colour coded to indicate filter type • 5 decimal weight accuracy (.00001g) • Use of pure homopolymer PVC filters provides excellent weight stability • PVC filter specially designed with no silica and low ash properties Zefon’s advanced manufacturing process occurs under strict environmental controls to ensure weight reproducibility and numerous quality checks ensure consistent weights. Features: • Each cassette is labeled with a serial number • Colour coded to indicate filter type • Preloaded, ready to use FILTER TYPE PURE HOMOPOLYMER PVC MCE Gravimetric analysis samples require filters to be weighed both before and after sampling to determine the amount of contaminate collected. Zefon pre-weighed cassettes eliminate the inconvenience of pre-weighing filters by providing the filter weight on each cassette prior to sampling. Zefon begins the process of manufacturing pre-weighed cassettes by letting each filter equilibrate to the environmental conditions of 68° F and 50% relative humidity. Filters are then weighed using advanced microbalance equipment which records the weight. After reading the weight, filters are removed, placed into cassettes, and sealed with a label bearing the weight and a unique serial number.

A stated tolerance of 50μg means that the control filter may differ in weight no more than 50μg from the test filter. This is important to know during post sample weighing as the weight tolerance of the 2 filters needs to be considered when calculating results. During manufacture, filters with matched weights (within the given tolerance) are inserted into the cassette in random order. Thus, it is possible for the control filter to weigh more than the test filter before sampling (within the given tolerance). If the control filter still weighs more after sampling, a sample likely was not collected. Check your equipment for proper operation and pump flow.

Features: • Industry proven & accepted • Independently validated • Laboratory preferred, easy to analyze • Proven results • No sample loss during shipping & handling • Pre-loaded, no slides to prepare The Air-O-Cell® operates on the principle of inertial impaction. Particulate-laden air is accelerated as it is drawn through the cassette’s tapered inlet slit and directed towards a slide containing the collection media, where the particles become impacted and the air flow continues out the exit orifice. The adhesive nature of the collection media prevents the collected particulate from blurring or washing off during the staining process and eliminates sample loss from vibration during handling and shipment. After sampling is completed, the cassettes are sent to a laboratory where direct microscopic analysis can be immediately performed. The collection media is compatible with a wide range of biological stains and refractive index oils, allowing direct qualitative and quantitative analysis of organic and inorganic particulates. Air-O-Cell® can be used with any standard off-the-shelf sampling pump capable of drawing 15 LPM open flow, including the Zefon Bio-Pump®, a convenient battery-powered hand-held pump for ease of sampling. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AOC050 Air-O-Cell® Air Sampling Cassettes, 50/box AOC010 Air-O-Cell® Air Sampling Cassettes, 10/box AOCCAL Air-O-Cell® In-Line Calibration Adapter, each Air-O-Cell® CSI Universal Optical and SEM Particle Analysis As the leader in air sampling cassette technology, Zefon International has developed the Air-O-Cell Collector for SEM Identification (CSI) which allows for analysis by both optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) on the exact same air sample. Like never before, the unique Air-O-Cell CSI media brings the advantages and precision of SEM particle analysis to indoor air quality investigations. The new Air-O-Cell CSI has significant advantages over the existing Air-O-Cell media and all other collection devices: • The sample can be examined and re-examined by both optical and electron microscopy in any order without significant particle loss or complex sample preparation • The high chemical stability, clarity, and ultra-smooth surface of the collection media enables a wide range of chemical, microbiological, and elemental analysis techniques to be employed using both optical and electron microscopy analysis • The unique low carbon X-ray background is specifically designed to enable the differentiation of common carbon containing indoor air quality particles (soot, rubber particles, fibers, etc.) in addition to inorganic contaminants Universal Microscopy Analysis: The high optical clarity, smooth surface, and low carbon X-ray background of the CSI media combine to provide both superior optical and electron beam image quality. The unique chemical resistance and low volatility of the media allows biological staining and optical analysis, and then reanalysis by electron microscopy.

It provides the simplest and most convenient way to sample with Air-O-Cell® and Via-Cell® cassettes at a flow rate of 15LPM. The Via-Cell bioaerosol sampling cassette is designed to collect both viable and non-viable bioaerosols, maintain viability of the viable mold spores, and prevent growth during transport to the laboratory. Sampling with the Via-Cell® is very similar to its sister product Air-O-Cell®. Simply connect it to any pump calibrated to 15LPM and run your sample. The key to the Via-Cell® is that the media used for collection maintains viability of spores and allows several analysis options. One Sample, Multiple Analysis Options Culturable Sampling: The Via-Cell® sampler is the perfect tool for collecting viable organisms and culturing them on agar plates. Simply dilute the media in sterile water and transfer to a culture plate. PCR Analysis: The Via-Cell® utilizes a water soluable collection media which is ideal for PCR and other chemical types of analysis. Once the sample is diluted in water, it can be transferred most anywhere. Direct Microscopy: Samples collected using the Via-Cell® sampler may be “prescreened” using direct microscopy methods, which allows the analyst to decide if additional analysis techniques are needed, which may include culturing or standard direct microscopy analysis.

It offers increased flexibility and control in gathering samples through sorbent tubes. If air is being sampled for two or more contaminants, the Gemini can draw samples at independent flow rates through tubes containing different sorbents. In situations where a single contaminant is being sampled, sampling on two tubes of the same type can be done simultaneously at different flow rates. This type of sampling protects against breakthrough which occurs when a tube’s sampling capacity is exceeded because the concentration of a contaminant is higher than anticipated. Duplicate sampling at the same flow rate can also be done to achieve better results. Features: • Valved mechanism allows flow control down to .001 LPM • Control the flow rate of each port independently • Includes tube covers to fit both large and small tube sizes 10mm Nylon Dorr-Oliver Cyclone Zefon’s 10mm Nylon Cyclone is designed to separate respirable dust particles from non-respirable particles and allow the respirable particles to be collected on a filter cassette.

They are precision cast into sheets, therefore, the pores are consistent and pore size ratings are more precise. During sampling, small particles pass through the pores in membrane filters leaving larger particles on the surface of the filter. A high amount of particles on the surface of a membrane filter can clog the pores causing particles that would normally pass through to be retained on the surface such as what commonly occurs during asbestos sampling. Depth Filters — Depth filters are constructed usually of fibrous materials such as glass or quartz. The multiple layers of randomLy oriented fibers in depth filters cause their pore size to be inconsistent and undefined, therefore, a pore size rating for a depth filter is typically approximate (nominal). Particles collected with depth filters are captured within the pathways of the fibrous material. Depth filters are typically more economical and tolerate higher temperatures.

Average background fiber count for SKC BestChek filters is less than 4 fibers per 100 fields. Clearing: OSHA ID-160 and NIOSH 7400 require filter material to be cleared during sample preparation so that samples have a smooth (non-grainy) background for accurate analysis. Both methods specify phase contrast microscopy (PCM) analysis. SKC BestChek filter material clears thoroughly to meet method specifications and is suitable for PCM analysis. Conductivity: OSHA ID-160 and NIOSH 7400 require the use of conductive cassette material. Conductivity is a function of the amount of carbon black contained in cassette material. ASTM Standard Test Methods D1603 and ASTM D257 provide for the determination of carbon black content and methods for testing conductance of materials. SKC BestChek cassette plastic contains over 18% carbon black for proper conductivity as tested using ASTM methods. Collection Area: OSHA ID-160 and NIOSH 7400 specify a consistent effective collection area of 385 mm2. The inside diameter of SKC BestChek cassettes vary by only ± 5 mm2 for consistent collection area and minimized error. Construction: OSHA and NIOSH recommend leak-free cassettes for accurate air sampling. SKC BestChek Asbestos Cassettes are certified leak-free.

ACGIH recommends that particle size-selective threshold limit values (TLVs) be expressed in three forms: 1. Inhalable (100 µm 50% cut-point), hazardous when deposited anywhere in the respiratory tract 2. T horacic (10 µm 50% cut-point), hazardous when deposited anywhere in the lung airways and the gas exchange regions 3. Respirable (4 µm 50% cut-point), hazardous when deposited in the gas exchange regions of the lungs PM2.5 and PM10 sampling according to EPA regulations determines compliance with ambient air quality standards and reveals information on particle sources and their effect on the environment and public health. 260 www.conceptcontrols.com SIZE-SELECTIVE PARTICULATE SAMPLERS Sioutas Personal Cascade Impactor Precise particle separation • Particle size cut-points: 2.5 µm, 1.0 µm, 0.50 µm, and 0.25 µm • The only personal impactor that efficiently samples fine and ultrafine particles simultaneously • Maintains high collection efficiency even at high particle concentrations Optimized at 9 L/min flow rate with low pressure drop for 24-hr sampling • Improves analytical sensitivity • Minimizes non-detectable samples Preserves unstable compounds • Chemically inert collection substrate • No impaction grease to contaminate sample Minimal particle bounce and internal wall losses Suitable for indoor and outdoor sampling** Size-fractionated samples can be analyzed gravimetrically, chemically, and microscopically Small and lightweight • Suitable for personal or area sampling The patented† personal-size Sioutas Cascade Impactor* separates and collects airborne particles in five size ranges: > 2.5 µm, 1.0 to 2.5 µm, 0.50 to 1.0 µm, 0.25 to 0.50 µm, and < 0.25 µm.

The conductive stainless steel inlet reduces electrostatic effects and contains evenly spaced holes that act as sampling orifices for multidirectional sampling and low sensitivity to wind direction and velocity. The proximity of the filter to the inlet minimizes transmission losses and provides equal distribution of particle loading and low intersample variation. The Button Sampler follows closely the ACGIH/ISO sampling criteria for inhalable particulate mass at 4 L/min. A convenient conductive plastic transport case is available for shipping the filter samples to a laboratory for analysis. Abrasive Blasting Sampler for Heavy Metals Abrasive blasting in confined spaces produces grit that rebounds at high velocity. When sampling with traditional cassette samplers, these particles can damage the filter and cause oversampling. SKC has combined a specially designed protective shield with the Button Sampler to create an efficient sampler of heavy metals in abrasive blasting environments. The curved protective shield fits over the Button Sampler inlet and has been proven to prevent filter damage that may cause overestimation of actual airborne concentration of inhalable contaminants. The SKC Abrasive Blasting Sampler has been used to monitor the personal exposure of workers performing abrasive blasting at four U.S. military facilities. The sampler reliably withstood blasting operations that included very high particle concentrations and provided recoverable samples and meaningful exposure information.

Personal exposure is determined through gravimetric analysis for particle mass and chemical analysis for specific compounds. How the PEM Works The PEM consists of three major parts: cap, impaction ring assembly, and base with after-filter. When used with a personal sampling pump at the required flow rate, aerosol is accelerated through a number of nozzles in the cap. Through inertia, particles larger than the 50% cut-point of the sampler impact onto a greased impaction ring and can be discarded after sampling. Particles smaller than the 50% cut-point pass through the impactor and collect on a 37-mm after-filter. There are six models of PEM available for the collection of PM10 or PM2.5 at three different flow rates. CUT-POINT 2.5 µm MODEL 10 µm FLOW RATE 2 L/min CAT.
