The Photovac 2020ComboPRO hand held PID is an instrument of choice for VOC Monitoring. This rugged, accurate instrument provides real time results for a wide variety of VOC Monitoring applications. When flame ionization detection is required for VOC Monitoring, the Photovac DataFID or MicroFID II are the instruments of choice. Their unique 70 hour hydrogen cylinder and Bluetooth wireless connectivity make them ideal for VOC monitoring in the field. The Photovac Explorer potable gas chromatograph is ideal for VOC Monitoring when concentrations of individual VOCs are required. This portable GC eliminates the need for time consuming, costly laboratory analysis of VOC samples.

 

VOC Monitoring

VOC Monitoring is the act of detecting the concentrations of Volatile organic compounds in a particular sample. VOC Monitoring is performed by detection technology, including photoionization detectors and flame ionization detectors. When a VOC Monitoring application requires the identification and concentration of a specific VOC, a gas chromatograph is required.



Why is VOC monitoring important?
VOC monitoring is important for many reasons. VOC Monitoring is used to ensure worker safety in indoor air quality assessments. VOC Monitoring can help detect leaks in LDAR applications. It is also used to detect harmful concentrations in environmental applications to ensure that safe levels are present in remediation and perimeter monitoring applications.


What are some applications in which a VOC Monitoring is important?
There are a wide range of applications, including leak detection and repair (LDAR), perimeter monitoring, confined space monitoring, soil gas monitoring, OSHA compliance monitoring, and indoor air quality assessments.


What are some important qualities to look for in an instrument used for VOC Monitoring?
A VOC analyzer should be rugged, dependable, compact and portable. It should be easy to operate for effortless use in the field. Calibration procedures should be clear and easy. The unit should be intrinsically safe for use in potentially hazardous conditions if the application requires it.
