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.

Description Cat. No.
Silica Air Sampling Kit
Silica in Air Sampling Pump Kit Includes one each: Universal PCXR4 Sample Pump, single charger, filter cassette holder with collar clip and tubing, aluminum cyclone, calibration chamber for cyclone, package of 50 PVC filters, package of 50 cassette blanks, and a literature packet that includes step-by-step instructions on sampling for silica, as well as Application Guides on sampling with cyclones and calibrating a pump with an electronic calibrator. Calibrator available separately.

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.

Description Cat. No.
Lead in Air Sampling Kit
Lead in Air Sampling Pump 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.

Description Cat. No.
Oil Mist Air Sampling Kit
Oil Mist Sampling Pump 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 cassettes blanks, and a literature packet on oil mist sampling as well as Application Guides on sampling with filters and calibrating a pump with an electronic calibrator. Calibrator available separately.

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.

Description Cat. No.
Formaldehyde Air Sampling Kit
