3M™ Organic Vapor Monitors

Keep workers safe from hazardous environments

The 3M™ Organic Vapor Passive Air Monitoring badges use a single charcoal sorbent wafer for easy collection of organic vapors with later analysis by gas chromatography. Clip unit to your clothing, wear for the duration of the sampling period, and send it to 3M or any other certified gas chromatography lab to determine exposure.

All 3M Air Monitors 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.

Choose from standard badges and badges with back-up sections. The Organic Vapor Passive Monitoring Badges with Back-Up Section uses primary and back-up sorbent pads for sampling demanding environments. Especially suited for monitoring compounds like acrylonitrile, butadiene and methylene chloride for which activated carbon shows limited capacity.
