Air Analysis Programs & Products
Compressed - SCBA / SCUBA - Ambient - Indoor - Industrial
Air is used for many important functions. Typical air sources include: natural outdoor air, indoor air (industrial, commercial, medical, residential, laboratory, aircraft cabin), synthetic (blended) air, compressor supplied air, SCBA/SCUBA contained air, etc.. Each air source has a unique set of impurities that must be controlled for trouble-free use in a specific application.
The quality (grade) of air needed for many functions is often defined by professional agencies (for example CGA, USP/NF, NFPA, NIOSH, Mil-Spec, OSHA, EPA or equipment vendors). In some cases, users must select an appropriate purity grade depending on their specific needs.
ALI is highly experienced in air analysis and can assist you in starting-up an air testing program. For example, we can help you select the proper CGA air qualify grade for an industrial application, ensure that all undesirable contaminants are properly monitored and certify that your air meets an appropriate regulatory standard. We can also provide you with air quality analyzers or simple gas detector tube test kits.
We rent and sell a wide variety of sample containers needed for air analysis. For example, we can provide large or small ss or passivated cylinders for high pressure air containment, special polybags, sorbent tubes, filter cartridges, pumps, pressure regulators, connective hardware, etc. Whatever it takes for you to properly obtain a representative air sample and have it tested --- we can provide it -- along with simple, pictorial sampling instructions.
Many customers are not “Haz-Mat” qualified to ship compressed air samples to our lab for testing. To eliminate this problem, ALI has developed a number of “No-Haz” Air Kits that allow you to take a non-compressed air sample in our Polybags, Minicyls, Sorbent-tubes or Filter Cartridges and properly ship them to us as “non-hazardous goods of no commercial value”.
Examples of Common Air Analysis Tests
Carbon monoxide - Carbon Dioxide - Total Hydrocarbons -Oil Mist - Particulates -Water Vapor - NOX - SOX - Non-Condensable Gases - % O2 - Odor - Halogenated Solvents - Chlorine - Acid Gases - Fuel Vapors - Ammonia - Aldehydes - Sulfur Vapors - Aromatics - PNA’s - Toxics
Summary: ALI has the laboratory resources, experience and products needed to help you meet your air analysis requirements - no matter how simple or complex they are.
