IFV Pro Sampler Overview

IFV Pro Sampler includes sampling head (aerosol sampler body, cassette, and front plate), protective tube cover, cassette cap, 10 extra tube holders (rubber sleeves), and cassette transport container, requires 25-mm filter and sorbent tube

The IFV Pro Sampler collects mixed-phase (aerosol and vapor) contaminants such as pesticides, polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), inorganic acids, and explosives. The IFV Pro simultaneously collects the aerosol phase on a 25-mm filter and the vapor phase in an 8 x 110-mm sorbent tube at a flow rate of 1 L/min. Sampler includes sampling head, protective tube cover, cassette cap, and cassette transport container; requires 25-mm filter and 8 x 110-mm sorbent tube.

* Designed to meet the inhalable convention based on the scaling down technique described in the Final Report on research carried out under NIOSH-CDC Grant No. RO1-OH 03687-03, “Development of New Personal Aerosol Samplers,” Vincent, J.H., et al., 2003.

 

ACGIH IFV Designation

ACGIH has assigned a TLV with Inhalable Fraction and Vapor (IFV) designation to over 50 compounds that exert sufficient vapor pressure such that the contaminant may be present in both particle and vapor phases, with each phase contributing a significant portion of the dose. IFV Pro allows for efficient sampling of compounds with this designation (see guide below) or compounds found in mixed phases due to work activities or processes.

The IFV Pro Sampler collects mixed-phase contaminants such as pesticides, polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), inorganic acids, and explosives. Sampling mixed-phase contaminants is challenging because the vapor and aerosol distribution is constantly changing. IFV Pro features an IOM-style inlet for true inhalable sampling and collects vapor phase on a variety of method-specific sorbents

Sampling Mixed-phase Contaminants Using IFV Pro

    1. Aerosol phase — Place cassette loaded with 25-mm filter in sampling head.
    1. Vapor phase — Insert opened sorbent tube into tube holder on sampling head.
  1. Simultaneous sampling — Attach tubing to sorbent tube, put protective tube cover in place, attach tubing to sample pump, and sample!
