Unlike traditional cyclones that can tip and invalidate samples, the impaction-based PPI Sampler design eliminates tipping invalidation. SKC PPI Samplers are also designed to provide the most precise match to the ISO 7708/CEN respirable criteria and are listed in OSHA and MSHA Final Silica Rules. When it comes to worker safety and compliance, trust SKC PPI Samplers for easy, precise sampling and defensible data. Learn more at www.skcinc.com/ppi-sampler!
