New photoionization monitor.Photovac, Inc., a premier provider of handheld and portable instruments for detection and measurement of volatile organic compounds volatile organic compound Environment Any toxic cabon-based (organic) substance that easily become vapors or gases–eg, solvents–paint thinners, lacquer thinner, degreasers, dry cleaning fluids (VOCs), introduces its new 2020PRO[TM] Photoionization Photoionization The ejection of one or more electrons from an atom, molecule, or positive ion following the absorption of one or more photons. The process of electron ejection from matter following the absorption of electromagnetic radiation has been under Monitor, a portable and ergonomically designed instrument that provides rapid on-site detection of VOCs in air, water, and soil. The compact 2020PRO weighs 1.75 pounds (0.8 kilograms) and is ideal for a wide range of applications, including OSHA OSHA n. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, a branch of the US Department of Labor responsible for establishing and enforcing safety and health standards in the workplace. compliance, confined-space pre-entry, emergency response, site characterization, fugitive emissions, and law enforcement. The instrument is classified as intrinsically safe Intrinsically safe is an attribute applied to electrical equipment that is designated for use in explosion-prone areas. In normal uses, electrical equipment often creates internal tiny sparks in switches, motor brushes, connectors, and in other places. in North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. and Europe for use in potentially explosive environments. New features include * a larger graphical display so that data can be easily read; * larger keys for easier menu access when triple-layer gloves are being worn; and * a dedicated calibration key that allows immediate access to the calibration procedure, with more prompts to walk users easily through the calibration process. The instrument is also outfitted with three modes of operation to suit all needs: Non-logging Mode for continuous readings for surveying and site-checking; Tag Mode for data logged by tag name or number (ideal for U.S. EPA EPA eicosapentaenoic acid. EPA abbr. eicosapentaenoic acid EPA, n.pr See acid, eicosapentaenoic. EPA, n. Method 21); and Interval Mode, which logs at pre-set intervals. Samples can be analyzed directly from the field or source. The detector is also humidity-compensated, so users can rely on accurate results under any conditions. An expanded internal data-logging feature allows the operator to record thousands of sampling points that can be downloaded to a computer with the new 2020PRO Chart software.
