Traps for Volatile Organic Sampling Trains (VOST)

SKC VOST Tubes

Volatile organic sampling trains (VOSTs) are specified by U.S. EPA Method 0031 in SW-846 for sampling VOCs in gaseous effluent from stationary emission sources such as hazardous waste incinerators. SKC VOST traps met method specifications. SKC VOST traps are tested for background and pressure drop and feature Swagelok fittings and PTFE ferrules. Traps supplied are not thermally conditioned.

Method 0031 calls for three sorbent tubes:

  • One Anasorb 747 sorbent tube (SKC Sorbent tube 226-133)
  • Two Tenax sorbent tubes (SKC Sorbent tube 226-134)

Because of their low background levels, these specified sorbents are useful for collecting low concentrations of VOCs.

Note:
VOST tubes must be conditioned prior to use; use and analyze within 14 days of conditioning.
Note:
EPA methods allow some flexibility accommodating similar sampling protocols, however, such flexibility places documentation responsibility on the user. For a detailed explanation, refer to the method.
