The TOFWERK AirTox Monitor utilizes the VUV PTR Reactor, enabling broad detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with high sensitivity.
This plasma-free PTR technology offers simplified operation and maintenance, while delivering exceptional reliability and wide compound coverage.
Combined with TOFWERK time-of-flight (TOF) technology, it provides real-time, full-spectrum analysis, supporting both mobile and stationary measurements of trace VOCs for continuous environmental monitoring.
Features:
- Real-Time Detection
Immediate response to air toxics events and changing conditions
- No Sample Preparation
Direct analysis, even in complex matrices or high humidity environments
- Full Mass Spectrum Analysis
Time-of-flight technology ensures comprehensive VOC identification
- High Mass Resolving Power
Accurately separates complex mixtures, minimizing interferences
- Enhanced Sensitivity
Integrated RF ion guide maximizes detection capabilities
- Broad Chemical Coverage
Expanded chemical coverage through multi-reagent ion capabilities.
Compound coverage:
- HON Rule Compounds: EPA-listed hazardous air pollutants; include carcinogens and volatile organics like benzene, vinyl chloride, and acetaldehyde, prioritized in industrial emissions monitoring
- Small Oxygenated Compounds: solvents and combustion byproducts (e.g., methanol, acetone); often emitted from industry and wildfires; tracked for odor, exposure, and combustion indicators
- Halogenated Compounds
Chlorinated and brominated VOCs originate from industrial solvents and manufacturing
- Monitored in air for toxicity, persistence, and proximity to source zones near communities
- Aromatics
Fuel- and solvent-related VOCs from industry and wildfires; key refinery emissions; important in community exposure studies near industrial fencelines
- Others: highly toxic gases like ammonia, butadiene, and hydrogen sulfide; varied industrial sources; critical in real-time fenceline monitoring and emergency response.
Real-time monitoring and reporting dedicated AirTox software: VocusTRACK and VocusDATAVIEW, rapidly detect, identify and quantify emissions improving air quality monitoring and targeted and exploratory detection of hazardous air pollutants.
