High-quality thermal desorption tubes are suitable for ppt to ppm concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in ambient, indoor, personal, and industrial hygiene environments.
- Variety of sorbents to collect a wide range of VOCs
- Use corrosion-resistant glass tubes for excellent inertness
- Allow monitoring of sorbent bed condition
- Choose stainless steel tubes for greater durability in the field
- No sampling pump necessary for passive sampling with diffusion caps
- Individually etched with unique serial number for convenient sample identification
- The most reliable barcode "code 128" format on tube for recording and tracking
- Each tube has an arrow indicating flow direction to reduce errors during use
- Available unconditioned or preconditioned and ready to sample
- Tubes are reusable after thermal desorption for most applications
