Lead in air levels is usually measured using samplers which are placed at strategic points in the workplace (static samplers) or which are worn by individual workers with the sampling head as close as possible to the individual s breathing zone (personal samplers). Static samplers are efficient at highlighting failures or efficiency losses in air extraction systems, whilst personal samplers give a more accurate reflection of the actual exposure of individual workers. In many countries, limits are set on the permissible levels of exposure, usually on the basis of personal samplers. [Pg.300]

It is not possible to make firm recommendations for sampling devices the user must take into consideration the performance characteristics of the sampler and the nature of the information required, e.g. total quantity of material released, time of release, particle size, and whether to use a static sampler or a sampler attached to operators. However, if industry is to operate to standards, then there must be a common approach to air sampling/monitoring based on an agreed rationale. [Pg.290]

When on personal samplers Figure 21.2) the level of respirable dust is required, a device such as a cyclone is used to remove particles above 7 fim in diameter. Static samplers use a parallel plate elutriator for this purpose which allows the larger particles to settle so that only the respirable dust reaches the filter. With all separation devices the airflow rate must be controlled within close limits to ensure that the correct size fraction separation occurs. [Pg.443]

Air sampling may be by static samplers or by personal samplers worn by individuals. The latter give a more accurate picture of likely levels of exposure to plant operators, but can be subjected to tampering. Samplers consist of a miaopore filter capable of capturing particles of 0.2 pm, and a pump to draw air through the filter. For personal samplers the air rate is of the order of 2 L/min, whereas for static samplers the air rate is substantially greater at around 2 L/s. [Pg.253]

While with-in the mobile x-ray system, the waste in the sampler, is contained within a replaceable (and disposable) polyvinyl chloride (PVC) sleeve with a wall thickness of approximately 0.2-inches and a sealed bottom. It was anticipated that the PVC tube or sleeve would, with use, become highly contaminated with waste residues which drip of fall-off the sampler. The sleeve is coated with a conductive coating to prevent static electricity buildup . There are no sources of ignition in this sealed spare. The sampler (and waste) is coupling which includes a positive pressure gasket. This barrier is further isolated by a second barrier consisting of an epoxy coated aluminum sleeve also sealed-off from the main x-ray cabinet and PVC sleeve. There are also no potential sources of ignition in this isolated secondary space as well. [Pg.611]

Suitable PLOT columns for the determination of vinyl chloride monomer in PVC include 15.00 m, 0.53 mm bonded polystyrene-divinyl benzene and 30 m, 0.53 mm porous divinyl benzene homopolymer types. Typical responses for vinyl chloride monomer standards (0.06, 0.19 and 0.31 mg/1) in N,N-d imethylaceta-mide expressed as mg/kg vinyl chloride (PVC sample) using the 30 m homopolymer column and flame ionisation detection are shown in Figure 38. An automatic static headspace sampler was employed. [Pg.594]

TTie instrument is built around a commercially available autosampler designed by P.S. Analytical Ltd, Kent, UK. This has a helical tray and the probe remains static. All the analytical modules are incorporated in to the upper housing of the sampler system. The unit is compact but it is difficult to maintain and service nevertheless it has been widely accepted as a standard in the UK water industry. [Pg.226]

We can say that such a static device is a U( ) unipolar, set rotational axis, sampling device and the fast polarization (and rotation) modulated beam is a multipolar, multirotation axis, SU(2) beam. The reader may ask how many situations are there in which a sampling device, at set unvarying polarization, samples at a slower rate than the modulation rate of a radiated beam The answer is that there is an infinite number, because from the point of the view of the writer, nature is set up to be that way [26], For example, the period of modulation can be faster than the electronic or vibrational or dipole relaxation times of any atom or molecule. In other words, pulses or wavepackets (which, in temporal length, constitute the sampling of a continuous wave, continuously polarization and rotation modulated, but sampled only over a temporal length between arrival and departure time at the instantaneous polarization of the sampler of set polarization and rotation—in this case an electronic or vibrational state or dipole) have an internal modulation at a rate greater than that of the relaxation or absorption time of the electronic or vibrational state. [Pg.713]

The reference methods usually require wet samplers. Sampling trains have been developed that allow the sampling of five or more gases simultaneously in separate bubblers. These static methods of sampling can be accomplished with a modest initial investment, but the manpower required to distribute and pick up the samples and to analyze them in the laboratory raises the total cost to a point where automated systems may be more economical for long-term studies. [Pg.337]

Monomers are either gaseous or relatively volatile liquids and so GC and GC-MS based techniques are used to determine them in both the rubber compound and the food simulant/food product. To simplify the analysis, a static headspace sampler is often used to isolate the monomer from the sample matrix an extraction procedure often presenting chromatographic problems with the extraction solvent obscuring the analyte. [Pg.287]

In practical blending processes, one cannot obtain arbitrary quantities of pristine data as one can using particle-dynamic simulations, and one must settle for sampling a static bed, as mentioned previously. In such a case, it is especially important to understand sampling limitations and systematic biases. A common means of obtaining samples in a tumbler is by the use of a scoop or thief sampler. These samplers are inserted into the bed and extract samples from its... [Pg.2362]

Because these samplers physically disturb the natural state of the marine microlayer, in vitro results obtained from collected samples could not be proven to represent films in their natural state. Despite this limitation, these studies resulted in characterisation of quasi-static film elasticities and led to parameterisations that adequately define bounds within which the marine microlayer typically ranges. By setting such bounds, these works provided constraints for laboratory experiments (e.g., Hirsa et al. 1995, McKenna 1997, Saylor 1997). At the same time, techniques for making short wave measurements in situ were developed by independent researchers (Hwang 1989, Bock and Hara 1995), and others have followed (Zhang 1995, Suoja2000). [Pg.79]

A diffusive/passive sampler is a device which is capable of taking samples of gas or vapour pollutants from the atmosphere at a rate controlled by a physical process such as diffusion through a static air layer or permeation through a membrane, but which does not involve the active movement of air through the sampler (Brown, 1993 Moore, 1987). Compared with methods requiring pumps for active air movement, diffusive samplers are more convenient and have lower associated costs. [Pg.57]

Method 5021 describes the automated static-HS technique. Static HS has been introduced in this book from a theoretical viewpoint. A soil sample is placed in a tared septum-sealed vial at the time of sampling. A matrix modifier containing internal and/or surrogate standards is added. The sample vial is placed into an automated equilibrium headspace sampler. The vial s temperature is elevated to a fixed value that does not change over time and the contents of the vial is mixed by mechanical agitation. A measured volume of headspace is automatically introduced into a GC or a GC-MS. The method is automated and downtime is minimal. However, the cost of the automated system is appreciable. Contamination of the instru-... [Pg.130]
