SilcoCan® Air Sampling Canisters with RAVE™ Valve by Restek Corp.
Manufacturer Restek Corp.
For ultimate inertness, SilcoCan® air sampling canisters feature our unique Siltek® treatment technology.
Even highly active components, at low parts-per-billion concentrations, can be readily sampled and stored without loss. The RAVE™ valve is a high-quality, metal-to-metal seal, 2/3-turn valve with metal diaphragms to prevent sample adsorption for more-accurate results. Both stainless steel and Siltek®-treated RAVE™ valves are available, in both the 2-port and 3-port configurations. Each cani... Read more

"The SilcoCan air sampling canisters are easy to use and robust to field and laboratory use/abuse. I like how you can buy these without a valve, allowing you to attach your own for a particular application. They are robust and hold up to use better than glass sampling flasks and allow for higher filling pressures."

For ultimate inertness, SilcoCan® air sampling canisters feature our unique Siltek® treatment technology.
Even highly active components, at low parts-per-billion concentrations, can be readily sampled and stored without loss. The RAVE™ valve is a high-quality, metal-to-metal seal, 2/3-turn valve with metal diaphragms to prevent sample adsorption for more-accurate results. Both stainless steel and Siltek®-treated RAVE™ valves are available, in both the 2-port and 3-port configurations. Each canister is slightly pressurized with contaminant-free nitrogen prior to shipment.
Whether you are monitoring for TO-14A, TO-15, or reactive sulfur compounds, SilcoCan® canisters are your best choice for inertness. In Tedlar® bags, the stability of low-level (100 ppbv) sulfur volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is poor, even within 24 hours of sampling. Sulfur compounds react with the metal surface in electropolished canisters, so they are unsuitable for collecting and storing low-level sulfur VOCs. SilcoCan® air sampling canisters, which feature a Siltek®-treated surface, offer excellent storage stability for sulfur VOCs at very low levels (5–20 ppbv), under dry or humid conditions. The versatility of the SilcoCan® canister makes it an excellent choice for collecting and storing TO-14A or TO-15 compounds.
