3M™ Ethylene Oxide Air Monitoring System with Prepaid Analysis is designed for sampling personnel or work areas in the pharmaceutical, health care and chemical industries. This uses the proven scientific principle of diffusion, which is the gradual mixing of molecules of two or more substances. Red monitor uses brominated carbon to collect and convert the reactive ethylene oxide to a more stable chemical derivative called 2-bromoethanol. This compound is then desorbed with methylene chloride in methanol. Monitor has an 18 month shelf life. Meets OSHA's requirement for accuracy within -25% for 8 hrs samplings at 1 ppm and the requirement for accuracy within -35% for 8 hrs samplings at the 0.5 ppm action limit.
