Volatile Collection Traps (VCTs) 
volatile collection trap

 

VCT’s (volatile collection traps) are used with air delivery and volatile collection systems.  The absorbent is packed into the VCT, and is designed for the collection of trace (ppm to ppb) volatile organic compounds from sampled air or gas sources.

 

The most common absorbents are Porapak™ Type Q, Carbopak™ B, Tenax TA, and HayeSep® Q. Sigma Scientific LLC.  manufactures VCT’s with these absorbents.

Sigma Scientific’s VCTs are rigorously cleaned in a Soxhlet Extraction Apparatus with HPLC grade Methylene Chloride (CH2Cl2.) A minimum of 10 cycles are performed for each cleaning.  Sigma Scientific’s VCTs are then dried in a special oven, injecting Nitrogen gas (N2) heated to 115° C. 

 

The VCTs are placed tip first into an air tight rack.  A vacuum is pulled on the inside of the rack, drawing the heated Nitrogen through the VCT.  The dry VCTs are then placed in metallic bags injected with ambient temperature Nitrogen. 

Standard SS-VCT's come with 30mg ± 5 mg in your choice of one of four Absorbents:


Porapak™ Type Q
Carbopak™ B
HayeSep® Q.
Tenax TA
