Abstract
Two Perkin-Elmer Sequential Tube Samplers (Model STS-25) were evaluated for their performance, portability, and convenience of operation. Results obtained from both samplers and from a collocated Summa-polished stainless steel canister were compared for seven 3-h periods at three sites. Special attention was given to the monitoring of carbonyl sulfide and carbon disulfide. Advantages for the use of the STS-25 are low cost, portability, ease of use, and a design suitable for obtaining sub-part-per billion detection limits with a standard analytical finish. Disadvantages are that it is a one-short technique and no universal solid absorbent material exists.
