Gas and Vapour Sampling Accessories

SKC offer a range of gas and vapour sampling accessories to complement the range of air sampling pumps.

  • How to Build a Single Tube Low Flow Sampling Train

    Simple Instructions to Create a Single Tube Sample Train

  • How to Build a Multi-Tube Low Flow Sampling Train

    Simple Instructions to Create a Multi-Tube Sample Train

  • Low Flow Adaptor Kit

    Note that the Universal series of air sampling pumps have an internal adjustment (regulator) for low flow sampling. For the Universal pumps the relevant Adjustable/Non-Adjustable Low Flow Tube Holders and Tube Covers are purchased as required.

    Pump Part Number
    Low Flow Adaptor Kit for Sidekick and AirChek series Pumps (3000, ESSENTIAL+, CONNECT, XR5000, TOUCH)

    This kit includes an All-in-One Adjustable Tube Holder and a Protective Tube Cover Type A.

    		 210-500
    Low Flow Adaptor Kit for AirLite

    This kit includes an Adjustable Low Flow Single Tube Holder, Constant Pressure Controller (CPC) and Protective Tube Cover Type A.

    		 110-500

  • Constant Pressure Controller (CPC)

    A CPC is a device which allows a sampling pump to operate at low flow rates and with the optional adjustable low flow tube holders.

    Constant Pressure Controller (CPC)

    The CPC is placed inline between the adjustable low flow tube holder and the pump inlet, and regulates the specific amount of pressure to be maintained across the needle valve(s) on the supply (pressure) end of the sampling train. During sampling a valve inside the CPC opens and pulls additional air into the train on the pump (vacuum) end of the CPC as needed, to maintain the CPC-specified pressure across the needle valve(s). Note that the All-in-One low flow tube holder (224-27) is available which combines a CPC with a single low flow adjustable tube holder.

    Description Part Number
    CPC for Sidekick and AirChek series pumps (3000, ESSENTIAL+, CONNECT, XR5000, TOUCH) 224-26-CPC
    CPC for AirLite and Pocket Pump TOUCH* pumps 224-26CPC-10

     * Not required when using single tube holder with a Pocket Pump TOUCH pump, only required when using multi-tube adjustable tube holders.

  • Adjustable Low Flow Tube Holders

    These products enable a sampling pump to be used with up to 4 sorbent tubes at the same time, either the same tube type running at different flow rates, or with different tubes running at the same or different flow rates.

    Note that when using a single tube with the Pocket Pump Touch the Non-Adjustable Low Flow Tube Holder is used.

  • Protective Tube Covers

    These protect the ends of the tube for storage and transit. The appropriate tube cover must be selected by matching the Tube Cover type in the Sorbent Tube Selection Charts. Note that tube covers Types A to D are for use with SKC Adjustable Low Flow Tube Holders only. Collar clips are attached for convenience.

    * OSHA Versatile Sampler (OVS) tubes are typically used at a flow rate of 1 L/min provided by a personal sample pump. The special OVS tube holder is designed to accommodate the 13 mm diameter of SKC OVS tubes, provide a convenient clip to attach the tube in the breathing zone, and protect the tube during sampling. Includes 0.9 m (3ft) of tubing.

    ** Low-volume PUF (polyurethane foam) tubes are typically used at a flow rate of 1 to 5 L/min provided by a personal sample pump. Therefore, a special tube holder is used in place of an adjustable low flow holder that only allows flows to 500 ml/min. The low-volume PUF tube holder is also specially designed to accommodate the large 22 mm diameter and long 100 mm length of SKC low-volume PUF tubes. Includes 0.9 m (3ft) of tubing.

Chromosorb Sorbent Tubes

Chromosorb® is a porous polymer sorbent and is used to trap low-boiling hydrocarbons, benzene, labile compounds, and volatile oxygenated compounds. Chromosorb® 106 is a hydrophobic sorbent and the least polar polymer in the Chromosorb family and is functionally similar to Anasorb® 727.

Chromosorb® 102 is used to trap chlorine-containing pesticides

To select a tube for a specific compound refer to the SKC Sampling Guides or use our SKC online Hazard Database
