Sampling Heads

The patented IOM Sampler has a reusable filter cassette, designed to better measure the worker's exposure to total airborne particulates.

  • Inhalable

The Button Sampler is a filter sampler with a porous curved-surface inlet, designed to improve the collection characteristics of inhalable dust.

  • Inhalable

The SKC Mini Sampler fits onto the Face Level Sampling Headset and requires a 13 mm 0.8 µm MCE Filter.


  • Inhalable

The SKC Plastic Cyclone is a lightweight conductive plastic unit that holds a collection filter in a reusable cassette during sampling.

  • Respirable

The GS-3 Cyclone is a 10 mm lightweight two-piece conductive plastic unit with multiple inlets, that holds a standard 25 or 37 mm filter cassette.

  • Respirable

The GS-1 Cyclone, a single-inlet version of the GS-3 Cyclone, in conductive plastic provides performance equivalent to the Dorr-Oliver Cyclone.

  • Respirable

A lightweight sampler that is used with a filter loaded into a three-piece filter cassette, giving sharp size selection between respirable fractions at 4 or 5 µm.

  • Respirable

A small sampler with 4 impactors in 1 unit, which provides the closest match to the ACGIH/ISO/CEN respirable and thoracic conventions.

  • Respirable       • Thoracic

The SKC Disposable PPI combines the performance of reusable aluminium PPI models with the convenience of a single-use sampler.

  • Respirable       • Thoracic

DPM samplers and cassettes meet the requirements of NIOSH 5040 specification for analysis of elemental carbon or for carbon nanotubes and nano fibres.

  • Diesel Particulates

The asbestos cowled sampling head is a 25 mm plastic sampler for fibre sampling (also available with an aluminium cowl).


  • Fibres

The SKC IMPACT Sampler is a single-stage inertial impactor, designed for the efficient collection of PM10 or PM2.5 in ambient air.

  • PM Coarse    • PM10     • PM2.5

The Personal Modular Impactors are designed for the highly efficient collection of PM10, PM2.5, or PM Coarse (PM10-2.5).


  • PM Coarse    • PM10     • M2.5

The Personal Environmental Monitor (PEM) is a lightweight, personal sampling device for collecting particulates of either 2.5 or 10 µm.

  • PM10       • PM2.5

Separates and collects airborne particles in five size ranges. Highly efficient at collecting particles without the use of impaction grease or substrate coatings.

  • Ultrafine      • Fine       • >2.5µm

Simultaneously and efficiently collects contaminants in both the particle and vapour phase, such as pesticides, PAHs, organic acids and explosives.
