Provides results comparable to canisters for EPA Method TO-15
- No cleaning or certification costs
- Lower purchase price
- No expensive shipping
Passive alternative for EPA Method TO-17 — no pump required
Choice of 5 sorbents for indoor and ambient air sampling, including semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs):
- Anasorb GCB1
- Tenax TA
- Chromosorb 106
- Charcoal (solvent desorption)
- Carbopack X
Slide cover for easy on/off
Miniature lightweight sampler is easy to transport — no expensive shipping
Validated sampling (uptake) rates
- For indoor (low air velocity) uptake rates, see Technical Note: Low Velocity Sampling Rates for Environmental Sampling Using ULTRA Passive Samplers
Built-in blank/correction sorbent section (Also available with sorbent loaded in the sample compartment only, when a blank is not required)
Also available as an empty housing with separate sorbent vials for user-filled samplers.
Sample integrity:
- Sonically welded housing seals the sampler
- Manufactured in an ultra-clean environment
- Extensive cleaning and quality control procedures
Long term sampling up to 30 days reduces temporal variability. Please contact SKC for details.

Description
The ULTRA Passive Samplers from SKC are the creative evolution of indoor and ambient air sampling. The patented* ULTRA samples by diffusion and provides low ppb to ppt detection of compounds, including semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs). Operation is as easy as sliding the cover open to start sampling and closing it to stop sampling.
