Enviro Technology Launches Rapid Diffusion Samplers

Tuesday, September 13, 2011 by Enviro Technology Services

Local authorities and businesses seeking fast, cost-effective air monitoring need look no further than air quality monitoring specialist Enviro Technology's brand new range of rapid diffusion samplers.

Ideal for all rapid indoor, outdoor, personal and workplace air monitoring of volatile organic compounds (VOCS) and nitrogen dioxide, rapid diffusion samplers offer a quick, low cost, highly effective solution for passive sampling with the added advantage of shorter monitoring periods.

With sampling times from as little as one hour to seven days, rapid diffusion samplers meet requirements for fast results without the need for hiring a pump or using any additional tools, enabling users to easily identify hazardous air pollutants, even with limited site access.

Straightforward and easy to use, rapid diffusion samplers can be used in a number of applications, including:

  • External ambient air pollution monitoring (e.g. roadside or urban background locations)
  • Indoor air monitoring (e.g. new buildings and offices or car interiors)
  • Industrial monitoring for the emission of hazardous gas (e.g. boundary monitoring or stack sampling)
  • Personal exposure or workplace monitoring for occupational health surveys and risk assessments

Enviro Technology's sales and marketing director Duncan Mounsor said: "Air pollution has become a major issue in our developing world and measures to control and improve ambient air environments in our cities and countryside are on the increase.

"Rapid diffusion samplers can be used for monitoring problem areas such as landfill, boundary areas, traffic congestion and suspected contaminated sites. They are an excellent, cost-effective method for consultants investigating sites that have been highlighted as possible problem areas.

"In addition, they offer an efficient alternative method of sampling to that of the canister, which is not only bulky but requires both pump sampling and efficient cleaning, saving local authorities, businesses and organisations time and money in the long run."

Later this year, Enviro Technology will be launching an online ordering system for rapid diffusion samplers.
