SCAQMD 25.1 and EPA 25 Sampling Trains

We can provide pre-assembled SCAQMD 25.1 and EPA 25 sampling trains in Heavy Duty Aluminum Boxes. Each box contains two identical sampling trains for the method required duplicate sample. Each sampling train consists of a 6 Liter Summa@ canister, a pre-attached flow controller, and a stainless steel trap (25.1) along with all necessary connections, plugs, filters, and instructions. The flow controllers are pre-cleaned and typically adjusted for a one hour sampling event. Other flow rates can be custom ordered to fulfill your project needs. All you have to do is add dry ice and you’re ready to sample!
