Bottle-Vac Samplers Bottle-Vac Sampling · sampling and can be used with both Micro-QT™ or TOV™ canister valves. Stands are available for eld use with the 1.4 MiniCan™ and 1L

Bottle-Vac™ samplers are the most economical gas-phase sample collection containers available. �ey use Micro-QT™ Valves which are small and non-contaminating by design. Bottle-Vac™ samplers are as gas-tight as stainless steel canisters, making them a low-cost alternative for whole air sampling. �e sample is only exposed to treated glass, 316 stainless (or Silonite® coated stainless), and a small O-ring which forms the seal at the cap. All these materials are inert, allowing for a wide range of analytes to be recovered. Like the Micro-QT2™ Valve, the Bottle-Vac’s Micro-QT™ Valve is capable of “around the valve” sampling by simply unscrewing the cap and tilting the !tting to break the vacuum seal. Time-weighted sampling techniques are also possible using MiniCan™ sampling inlets, or by using Helium Di"usion Sampling. (See pages 70–72)

Bottle-Vac™ Samplers

Bottle-Vac™ Sample Analysis

In the laboratory, analysis by loop injection requires either pressurizing to 3 psig, or heating to 60–70˚C to increase the pressure to purge a loop. Bottle-Vac™ samplers can also be analyzed using the 7200 or 7150D Preconcentrator to withdraw a larger volume for low PPB analysis. Automated analysis can be performed using the 7600, 7410D, or 7500D Autosamplers.

125, 250, 500, and 1L Bottle-Vac™ Samplers

Bottle-Vac™ samplers are reusable, making them less expensive per sampling event than other sampling devices, even Tedlar® bags. For PPB sampling, the bottles should be #ushed with nitrogen or zero air in an oven after the !ttings have been removed, then evacuated after the !ttings are reattached. Fittings can be heated, #ushed and stored under nitrogen in a separate container (See page 15). For PPM sampling, the valves and bottles can simply be heated in an oven overnight with the !ttings removed, then reassembled for immediate evacuation and delivery to the !eld.

MiniCan™ or Bottle-Vac™ samplers are �lled within 0.1 - 0.3 minutes, by either removing the valve (around the valve sampling), or using an unrestricted sampler.

Sample is collected through the valve using a �ltered ori�ce restricted sampler. Fill rates are constant until the canister reaches one-half atmosphere.

TWA sampling is used for slow �lling of canisters to determine average target compound concentrations. Fill times are 10-50 times longer than with critical ori�ce restricted samplers. Use the CS1200E and the PN: 30-22800 adapter for Micro-QT™ Valve Samplers. (Also see HDS Sampling pages 70–72).

!ere are several ways to �ll a MicroValve™ canister or Bottle-Vac™ depending on the sampling requirements. Here’s a brief overview:

Vacuum Sampling Approaches

Grab Sampling

Sampling with MiniCan™ and Bottle-Vac™ canisters couldn’t be easier. Simply verify su�cient canister vacuum with a check gauge and start sample collection. Bottle-Vac™ canisters can also perform “around the valve” sampling. Unscrew the plastic cap and then tilt the valve to break the vacuum seal. Screw the cap back on – that’s all it takes to capture a grab sample!

With MiniCans™, a grab sample can be accomplished by using a �ltered or non-�ltered sampler �tting. Place a sampler �tting onto the MicroValve™ and press down to activate sample collection. Non-�ltered grab samples can also be collected by removing the valve on a Micro-QT2™ �tting.

Helium Diffusion Sampling ™

ntroducing Entech’s breakthrough technology for whole air sample collection – Helium Di�usion Sampling (HDS™). We now o"er HDS™ active sampling solutions for indoor air

monitoring that simplify the collection of airborne chemicals for GC and GC/MS analysis. Rather than performing a traditional vacuum sampling event, MiniCans and Bottle-Vacs™ are initially #lled with helium, or helium with a recovery surrogate, and active sampling occurs in response to the controlled exchange of helium with air through a di"usion region. An HDS™ di"usion zone’s internal diameter is 20–50 times larger than typical critical ori#ce

samplers, so particulate plugging is virtually impossible. HDS™ eliminates the need for sampler calibration, as relative di"usion rates of Helium and air is virtually a constant. And unlike passive sampling with tubes – where compounds lighter than Benzene are not recovered quantitatively – HDS monitoring recovers all compounds heavier than Helium. Some important carcinogenic compounds quantitatively recovered using HDS that are not recoverable using passive tube sampling devices include: Vinyl Chloride, 1,3-Butadiene, and Acrolien. HDS™ Samplers also increase their weight as more air exchanges with Helium, allowing sample collection amounts to be determined gravimetrically in the laboratory for extremely accurate and defensible measurements.

Two indoor air HDS™ sampling versions are available from Entech, 1) MiniCan™ and Bottle-Vac Samplers (detailed below) that feature special HDS™ MicroValves that are optimized for standard sampling event durations – the di!usion zone exists inside of the "tting. 2) Controlled helium / air exchange with an external HDS™ di"usion zone #tting (opposite page) that is designed to attach directly to a standard Micro-QT™ valve. Like the HDS™ MicroValves, $ese external HDS™ #ttings feature a speci#c length or ID of the di"usion zone to provide an ideal sample #ll duration and canister volume. It’s that easy. HDS™ samples much slower than vacuum driven controllers, allowing smaller canisters and Bottle-Vacs™ to be used for long term sampling, at a substantially reduced cost. With HDS™, collection of whole air samples has never been this easy, economical, and reliable!

H D S ™ Indoor Air Samplers Using Helium Di!usion Sampling into Silonite® Canisters and Bottle-Vacs™ for indoor air monitoring has never been so easy and cost e!ective! Introducing Entech’s low-cost external HDS™ Samplers that allow any Silonite® Canister or Bottle-Vac™ to be used to perform time integrated sampling both simply and cost-e!ectively. HDS™ utilizes a simple di!usion zone to control the exchange rate of helium and air, with diameters that are 20–50 times larger than typical critical ori$ce samplers, making particulate plugging virtually impossible. HDS™ eliminates the need for sampler calibration, as relative di!usion rates of Helium to air is virtually a constant. Unlike passive sampling with tubes – where compounds lighter than Benzene are not properly recovered – HDS™ monitors retain all compounds heavier than Helium. %is allows even Ethane, Ethylene, and Acetylene to be collected quantitatively. HDS™ Samplers also increase their weight as more air exchanges with Helium, so collected amounts to be determined in the laboratory gravimetrically for extremely accurate and defensible measurements. Just select the color coded sampler below and the required container size shown in the table to achieve the sampling duration desired. All of these new samplers can also be used to perform quick grab sampling (2–30 seconds) into containers that are shipped to the $eld under vacuum rather than being $lled with helium.
