SASS 2300 Wetted-Wall Air Sampler

A highly efficient, portable multi-stage wetted-wall cyclone sampler that extracts particulates and water-soluble chemical vapors from air and transfers them to a liquid phase for later detection and analysis. This user-friendly sampler has been field- tested and used at a number of facilities including subway systems, public health facilities, nuclear power plants, corporate mail rooms and poultry ranches. It has been proven to possess excellent collection properties. Our patented technology can amplify trace aerosol concentration by extending the sampling time and the fluid monitoring system will maintain a fixed liquid volume in the device that is independent of collection time, air temperature or relative humidity. It is highly automated, can be easily carried by a single person, and may operate unattended for extended time periods. The SASS 2300 is the only wet-type air sampler shown to efficiently collect virus-sized particles, and has been successfully used to detect the airborne viral pathogens that cause exotic Newcastle disease and hoof-and-mouth disease*, as well as some strains of avian flu virus. Furthermore, it was the only portable sampler technology to receive US Department of Homeland Security Certification under the US Safety Act of 2002.
