Method Name:
AS002-AS-IR
IR Active Compound Scan
Marketing/Spec:
    TDT Air Scan® is used to quickly and inexpensively identify what compounds are in the air. It utilizes Prism Analytical Technologies, Inc.'s (PATI) widest spectrum, multi-matrix thermal desorption tube that is designed to trap both polar and non-polar compounds. After sampling, the sorption tube is sent to PATI for the qualitative and quantitative identification of IR active compounds. Other IR active compounds which may be present can also be identified and semi--quantified. TDT Air Scan® is a combination of instrument technology and methodology developed by PATI that has a wide range of applications from personal monitoring, office buildings and warehouses to industrial complexes and landfills.

    Sample collection requires a personal monitoring pump.

Features:
  • Cost effective
  • Widest spectrum thermal desorption tube
  • Semi-quantitation of other major IR compounds
  • Encapsulated tubes for long shelf life
  • Easy shipping, handling, and storage
  • Reduced project time by quickly determining what compounds are present as well as what compounds are not present
  • Tubes can be ordered and shipped same day at no additional cost
  • ¼" Diameter tubes are common to personal exposure pumps
  • Data reduction is performed by experienced, degreed chemists
Applications:
  • Monitoring of work place background and exposure levels
  • Personal Exposure Monitoring
  • Sick building syndrome monitoring
  • Process changeover / process maintenance exposure
  • Sampling of enclosed areas
  • Surveying work areas
