Silver Membrane Filters - SLIDEBLAST.COM
Particulate Sampling Filters
Silver Membrane Filters Specified for X-ray Diffraction Analysis Chemically inert and resistant to high temperatures • Sample aggressive contaminants • Autoclave repeatedly without loss of performance
Bacteriostatic Uniform porosity and thickness Ideal for x-ray diffraction and other analyses • NIOSH methods for x-ray diffraction analysis of crystalline silica, lead sulfide, boron carbide, and chrysotile asbestos • Organic materials by a variety of analytical methods
Smooth surface for high surface capture of particles and easy observation Hydrophilic and inorganic
For sample pumps see pages 5-23
Environmentally friendly — recyclable • Can be cleaned and reused
SKC silver membrane filters are made of 99.97% pure inorganic metallic silver that can withstand extreme chemical and thermal stress. SKC silver membrane filters are ideal for laboratory filtration applications involving aggressive fluids and/or high temperatures.
SKC Silver Membrane Filter Applications • Industrial hygiene sampling for airborne contaminants in foundries, glass plants, quarries, mines, and ceramic manufacturing - NIOSH Method 6011 Bromine and Chlorine - NIOSH 7500 and 7501 Silica (crystalline and amorphous, respectively) - NIOSH 7504 Vanadium Oxide - NIOSH 7505 Lead Sulfide - NIOSH 7506 Boron Carbide - NIOSH 9000 Asbestos, chrysotile - OSHA Method ID142 Quartz and Cristobalite
• Respirable Combustible Dust (RCD) sampling and analysis including diesel particulate matter (DPM), evaporated hydraulic fluids, fuel oils, and compressed air lubricants • Dopant gases for semiconductor manufacturing • Steam or air sterilization, autoclavable • High-temperature venting • Chlorine monitoring in pulp and paper industry • OSHA coal tar pitch volatiles • Fly ash sampling • Bacteria sampling

Particulate Sampling Spore Trap Cassettes
the VersaTrap
Ad antage! Uniform particle deposition Uniform rectangular deposition provides for accurate analysis using standard equipment.
High collection efficiency from 5 to 30 L/min • VersaTrap captures Aspergillus and Penicillium mold spores as small as 1.5 μm at 30 L/min
High collection efficiency at
A standard collection method for mold spore count and genus identification
flows between 5 and 30 L/min Target specific size particles for true versatility. See table below left for more information.
Easy analysis — ASTM D7391-09 • Positioning notches and flat edges provide for easy alignment on microscope stage • Uniform, well-defined rectangular deposition
Unique serial numbering for sample traceability
Positioning notches and flat
Optimized slide adhesive
edges on slide Fast, easy alignment on microscope stage
• Optically clear and tested for superior adherence
SureSeal certified leak-free cassettes for sample integrity
Tech Tips
Unique serial number on each cassette for sample traceability
VersaTrap® spore trap cassettes provide the sampling versatility you need to capture mold spores and other particles ranging from 1.5 to 3.9 μm. Sampling is as easy as selecting the flow rate that will target the desired particle size (see table below), calibrating a pump to the flow rate, and collecting the sample.
VersaTrap Cassettes can be operated at 30 L/min to trap the smallest Penicillium/Aspergillus spores that other spore traps do not. VersaTrap provides a 150-liter sample at 30 L/min in only 5 minutes.
VersaTrap Design The narrow slit inlet focuses particles toward the clear glass slide that is coated with a fully optimized sticky substrate. Targeted size particles are effectively held in a well-defined rectangular footprint. Each slide is encased in a SureSeal certified leak-free cassette to ensure sample integrity.
VersaTrap Makes Analysis Easy • Slides are easily removed from the cassette • Positioning notches and flat edges provide for fast, easy alignment • Well-defined rectangular footprint for accurate analysis using standard equipment • Unique serial numbers for sample traceability Description VersaTrap Spore Trap Cassettes, 37 mm, limited shelf-life VersaTrap Wall Adapters, for sampling in wall cavities
