General Product Description

The 3M™ Diffusion Monitor is a sampling device designed to measure average concentrations of certain contaminants over a measured time interval.
It can be used for either personal or area monitoring. As a personal monitor, it is worn near the breathing zone of individuals exposed to potentially
hazardous environments. When used as an area monitor, hang it away from walls, corners, table tops, or other regions where the air movement in the
room may be limited.
Sampling times will vary according to contaminant concentrations and environmental conditions such as humidity. Sampling times should be selected
for comparison with appropriate exposure limits. For complete details on appropriate compounds and sampling times, refer to the Organic Vapor
Sampling and Analysis Guide or contact PSD Technical Service at 1-800-243-4630 and in Canada at 1-800-267-4414.
Store in an area free of organic vapors and/or ethylene oxide.
Shelf life is 18 months from date of manufacture.
Good industrial hygiene practice indicates that a blank monitor be included with each set of samples to check for any contamination of the samples.
The blank is a monitor which has been handled in the same manner as the sample monitors, but has not been exposed to the atmosphere in the area
being monitored.

Product Information

3500 and 3510* organic vapor diffusion monitors contain a single charcoal adsorbent pad. The 3500 monitor is designed to be analyzed by the
user or by an independent laboratory. The 3510 includes a prepaid analysis for up to three compounds per monitor.
3520 and 3530* organic vapor diffusion monitors contain two charcoal adsorbent pads for increased capacity. The 3520 monitor is designed to be
analyzed by the user or by an independent laboratory. The 3530 includes a prepaid analysis for up to three compounds per monitor.
Please see current technical data bulletins for accuracy of the organic vapor monitors (In USA: www.3m.com/workersafety, in Canada:
www.3M.ca/Safety).
3550* and 3551 ethylene oxide diffusion monitors contain a single treated charcoal adsorbent pad. The 3550 includes a prepaid analysis. The
3551 monitor is designed to be analyzed by the user or by an independent laboratory. Accuracy meets current OSHA requirements for 8 hour sampling
which are +/- 25% at 1.0 ppm, +/- 35% at 0.5 ppm. Also meets accuracy requirements for short-term exposure limit (STEL) sampling of +/- 35% at
5.0 ppm. The 3550/3551 must be analyzed within 4 weeks after sampling.
* 3510, 3530 and 3550 not sold in Canada.
