Air Sampling Pumps

Why Air Sampling Pumps Matter in Occupational Health And Safety

In Occupational Health and Safety, exposure assessment underpins every decision you make. Air sampling pumps help quantify airborne hazards so you can prioritize controls, verify program effectiveness, and support regulatory obligations. By maintaining a consistent, targeted flow through the chosen media, these instruments help generate high-quality samples for lab analysis and trend reporting.

Key Applications

• Personal exposure monitoring for dusts, fumes, and vapors
• Task-based sampling for high-variability operations
• Area sampling to characterize background levels
• Short-term and full-shift campaigns across multiple job roles
• Exposure profiling for respirable crystalline silica, welding fume, and VOCs

Features That Support Your Program

• Consistent Flow Control: Designed to hold target flow during real-world movement and backpressure changes.
• Broad Sampling Flexibility: Works with common filters and sorbent tubes for particulates, metals, and organic compounds.
• Rugged, Field-Ready Design: Durable housings and intuitive controls support daily use across tough job sites.
• Long Run Times: High-capacity power options help you complete full-shift sampling without interruptions.
• Intrinsically Safe Options: Models are available for use in classified environments, supporting your hazard assessments.
• Streamlined Setup: Clear displays, simple menus, and quick media connections help reduce training time.
• Calibration Support: Compatible with primary and secondary standards to help you verify flow before and after each sample.
• Data Capture: Digital logs and time stamps help you track sampling conditions and build defensible records.

Selection Guidance for Occupational Health And Safety

Choose your pump based on the target contaminant, sampling method, and expected backpressure.

• For Particulate Sampling: Consider mid- to high-flow pumps that support cyclones and filters for respirable and inhalable fractions.
• For Vapor Sampling: Use low-flow pumps suited for sorbent tubes and multi-tube trains when needed.
• For Mixed Campaigns: A versatile platform with swappable flow settings can help you cover more tasks with fewer instruments.

Ask these questions as you select:

• What method and media will you use?
• What backpressure and flow range do you expect?
• Do you need an intrinsically safe model?
• How many hours must the pump run per shift?
• What mounting options or accessories align with your workforce and tasks?

Workflow Advantages

Air sampling pumps help your Occupational Health and Safety team work efficiently from planning through reporting. You can standardize sampling plans, assign pumps with labeled media, and document calibration in a consistent way. During sampling, stable flow helps keep data quality high. After sampling, digital records help you reconcile chain of custody, link results to workers and tasks, and compile reports for stakeholders.

Accessories and Media

• Cyclones and Sampling Heads for respirable and inhalable fractions
• Filters and Cassettes for dusts and metals
• Sorbent Tubes for VOCs and semi-volatiles
• Tubing, Clips, and Mounting Hardware for consistent placement
• Chargers and Batteries to support long shifts and rapid turnaround
• Calibrators and Flow Standards to verify performance

Program Impact

With the right pump and method, you can build a repeatable exposure assessment process. The result is clearer trend data, better targeting of controls, and stronger documentation to support Occupational Health and Safety decisions. Reliable instruments help reduce resampling, help avoid missed shifts, and support consistent training across teams.
