The TE-1000DBLX is a high volume air sampler engineered for polyurethane foam (PUF) collection of volatile organic compounds and airborne pesticides. This configuration supports EPA methods TO-4A, TO-9A, and TO-13A for ambient air monitoring of semi-volatile organic compounds including PAHs, organochlorine pesticides, and other persistent organic pollutants.

Dual-Phase Collection Technology

The sampler collects both airborne particulates onto the filter paper media and vapor-phase contaminants onto polyurethane foam in the lower chamber of the sampling module. This dual collection approach captures both particle-bound and gaseous-phase compounds that may partition between phases during transport and storage.

Key Specifications

Digital Timer: Recommended by the US EPA, allows for 1 in 3, 1 in 6, 1 in 7, and custom sampling schedules
Brushless Motor: No motor brushes or maintenance requirements, higher cost but emission-free operation
Power Configuration: 220V, 50Hz for international applications
Flow Rate: Operates at flow rates between 125 and 250 liters per minute
Housing: Durable aluminum shelter designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions

System Compatibility

This model represents the digital timer, brushless motor, 220V 50Hz configuration within the TE-1000 series family. Related configurations include:

TE-1000DBL: Digital timer, brushless motor, 110V 60Hz
TE-1000BLX: Mechanical timer, brushless motor, 220V 50Hz
TE-1000DX: Digital timer, brush motor, 220V 50Hz

EPA Method Compliance

The TE-1000DBLX meets specifications for EPA TO-13A and related compendium methods for determination of toxic organics in ambient air. The sampling module consists of a filter and a glass sampling cartridge containing the PUF utilized to concentrate PAHs from the air.

Applications

Ambient air monitoring for semi-volatile organic compounds
Source assessment and emission characterization
Pesticide residue monitoring in agricultural areas
Environmental forensics and contamination assessment
Research applications requiring simultaneous particle and vapor-phase collection

Operational Notes

Airflow is pulled through a critical orifice using the brushless vacuum blower motor assembly, which is used to control and calculate the ambient flow rate. The digital timer provides programmable sampling schedules essential for regulatory compliance monitoring, while the brushless motor design minimizes field maintenance requirements and ensures reliable operation in remote monitoring locations.
