New Manual Inflating Sampling Bag for Emergency Response

New Star Environmental (USA) introduces the VeriAir Flex Manual Inflating Sample Bag ideal for emergency response situations, where an atmospheric air sample can be collected in a hot zone and then moved to a safe zone to be immediately tested with a portable gas chromatograph or other analytical instrument.

The patented design allows an atmospheric grab sample to be collected directly without any need for a calibrated sampling pump or other equipment. Simple, intrinsically safe, and made of durable, analytical grade, multi-layer foil. The VeriAir Flex requires no maintenance and no batteries to charge or replace. It is designed so anyone can use it anytime and anywhere. There is no electric pump set up, no pump calibration or required calibration equipment, and no complex or special training required.

It has a built-in volumetric pump and the valve allows the user to rapidly and easily inflate and expel air from the sample bag several times before sample collection.

The VeriAir Flex sampling bag can be shipped in airline cargo compartments pressurised up to 11,000 ft. and is rated for temperatures of up to 176°F or 86°C. The multilayer bag material is rated at 5,800 lbs. tensile strength, is ideal for light sensitive compounds and offers excellent barrier properties. Each VeriAir Flex includes a unique identifying number on the label that can be used for chain-of-custody or sample retention records.
