Vaportest Air Monitoring Badges are simple and effective devices that collect contaminants through the scientific principle of diffusion. They meet or exceed OSHA accuracy requirements of ±25% at 95% confidence level for many work contaminants.
Made from aplastic nylon that contains a permeable, absorbent membrane that can be lab tested containing Anasorb 747, 500 mg. Multiple substances can be sampled on a single badge at the same time, helping you assess the exposure level of the gases and vapours around you.
Exposure time: Anything from 15 minutes to 24 hours*
*Accurate exposure time must be recorded on the Analysis Request Form in order to be valid for analysis.
