Sampling Kits
SKC Sampling kits save you time and money by including all or the equipment
and sample media needed to sample for silica, lead, or oil mist. Each kit
also contains step-by-step sampling guides for the compound of interest
Silica
OSHA continues its focus on crystalline silica as many workers are
overexposed to this hazardous compound with the risk of developing
silicosis. An important part of any silicosis prevention program is
ongoing personal air sampling. The money-saving SKC Silica Air Sampling
Kit provides all of the equipment and materials needed to effectively
monitor worker exposure to crystalline silica.

Lead
The lead industry's voluntary initiative to reduce worker exposure
to lead continues. Its primary goal is to reduce lead levels from 50 µg/100
g to 40 µg/100 g over a five-year period for workers involved in lead-based
manufacturing. Because personal air sampling is essential for monitoring
worker exposure, SKC created the economical Lead Air Sampling Kit with
all of the equipment and materials necessary for easy lead sampling.

Lead in Air Sampling Kit
Includes
one each: Universal PCXR4 Sample Pump, single charger, filter
cassette holder with collar clip and tubing, package of 50
MCE filters preloaded into cassette blanks, and a literature
packet that includes step-by-step instructions on sampling
for lead, as well as Application Guides on sampling with filters
and calibrating a pump with an electronic calibrator. Calibrator
available separately. |

Oil Mist
Oil mist can greatly reduce respirator efficiency without warning.
Because of this hazard, NIOSH issued Guideline No. 96-101 that allows
a choice in the type of non-powered air purifying respirator filter
based on the presence or absence of oil mist. According to 42 CFR 84,
the three levels of respiratory protection are: Not resistant to oil
(N-series), Resistant to oil (R-series), and Oil-proof (P-series).
The economical SKC Oil Mist Air Sampling Kit makes sampling for the
presence of oil mist quick and easy. If oil mist is not present, the
less expensive N-series filters can be used at a significant cost savings.
Follow NIOSH Method 5026 when sampling for oil mist.

Formaldehyde
Formaldehyde is commonly used as a preservative and an adhesive. Formaldehyde
gas can be released indoors from particleboard, laminated furniture
and cabinets, furniture and floor finishes, smoking, fuel-burning appliances,
paneling, fabrics, and drapes. A strong irritant, formaldehyde can
cause burning in the eyes, nose, and throat. Some individuals are even
highly sensitive to low concentrations of formaldehyde and display
a variety of symptoms including wheezing, coughing, and headaches.
