Casella Ethylene Oxide Monitor 3551, pack of 5

Manufacturer: Casella

Stock No.: EA-530-108

The monitoring of exposure to organic vapours is an important function for health and safety personnel within a wide range of industries. Any process, which involves high levels of organic vapours (e.g. adhesive fumes), presents a potential exposure risk to personnel. At the time of this catalogue going to print, Casella CEL are negotiating to become the only Approved 3M Occupational Health and Environmental Safety Analytical Service Provider. 3M passive samplers are simple and effective devices ideally suited to personal monitoring. They collect organic, airborne contaminants using the scientific principle of diffusion and meet or exceed 25% accuracy (at a 95% confidence level) for a wide range of chemical compounds found in the workplace. They are convenient to use, with no batteries, hoses, pumps or equipment to calibrate. Their ease of use makes monitoring a simple process; just clip the badge to clothing near to the breathing zone (e.g. shirt lapel, collar or pocket) for a period of time; typically an 8-hour shift and then after exposure, return the badge for analysis. Exposure can be calculated for a number of contaminants from a single badge if required. The shelf life of all 3M passive sampling badges is 18 months.

The 3551 monitor is an ethylene oxide badge designed for monitoring personnel or work areas in the pharmaceutical, health care and chemical industries where ethylene oxide is a major concern.
