AIR TESTING
- Summa canister, Tedlar bag, sorbent tube, cassette filter &
liquid impinger sampling media & pump rentals can be provided by MAI.
- Soil gas, indoor air, ambient air, stack gases, gas cylinder
purity (gases in gases), aerosols, air borne particulates & dissolved
gases in water can be tested.
- Analytes include: Light & permanent gases, inert gases,
biogenic gases, VOCs, TPH / fuels, metals & various organics groups.
We are rapidly expanding our air testing capabilities & look forward
to the challenge of adding new methods & analytes to serve our
client’s needs.
- Excellent sensitivity. For vapor intrusion risk assessment, we are
able to meet all soil gas ESL limits as well as those for indoor air
excepting EDB & DBCP. Single digit pptv sensitivity is available in
the SIM mode.
- Extended target lists for soil gas & indoor which include all
ESL & ASGI volatile compounds
- Enforceable occupational health & safety limits for chemicals
in air are issued by the following:
OSHA PELs (Permissible Exposure Limits)
NIOSH RELs (Recommended Exposure Limits)
DFG (Germany) MAKs (Maximum Concentration Values)
US DOE SCAPA TEELs (Temporary Emergency Exposure
Limits for DOE sites only)
- Non-enforceable occupational health & safety limits for
chemicals in air are issued by the following:
ACGIH TLVs (Threshold Limit Values)
SCAPA HBELs (Health-based Exposure Limits)
- OSHA & NIOSH limits are available at the
CDC website, http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/
