HiVol 3000 XAD

High Volume XAD Sampler

The HiVol 3000 XAD sampler provides a flexible platform for sampling organic compounds and monitoring basic meteorological parameters. The XAD sampler collects a wider variety of compounds (than a PUF sampler) on a hydrophobic polyaromatic resin (XAD).

Features

Weather-proof
Weather-proof marine quality anodised aluminium cabinet.
Enhanced communication
RS232 output for data collection and remote communication.
Remote control
Ability to remotely operate the unit from a PC.
Reliable sampling
Volumetric flow control automatically corrected to standard reference temperature.
Directional sampling
Wind direction and speed used to activate / de-activate sampler.
Measures wide range of particulates
• Organochlorine organophosphorous pesticides • Carbamates • Chlorodane • Organophosphorous pesticides • Diesel Range Organic compounds • PAH • SOVC.

Proven reliability

The HiVol 3000 XAD unit is a reliable, durable and proven sampler using volumetric flow control to maintain a consistent flow and collect a truly representative sample of particulate matter. Optional attachments allow the sampler to measure wind speed and direction which can then be used to trigger sector selectable sampling (e.g. fence-line monitoring). The HiVol 3000 XAD incorporates advanced programming functions and electronic volumetric flow control to maintain a consistent flow and collect a truly representative sample.
