Compact Method 5
The Apex Instruments Compact Method 5 Sampling Kit (SK-CM5) features an independently heated Stainless Steel Filter Assembly (SFA-82H) that connects directly to a standard Method 5 probe. This system does not require a separate heated filter compartment and utilizes a flexible sample line and a cutback umbilical cord with power adapter to allow sampling in space-limited areas. The standard glass impingers have been replaced with stainless steel impingers (S-5CN) to eliminate glass breakage. Three filter assemblies are recommended to speed turn-around time between consecutive runs. The Compact Method 5 sampling kit is used in conjunction with any of the Apex Instruments MC-500 series source sampler consoles. Alternate sampling kits available upon request.

Heated 82mm Stainless Steel Filter (SFA-82H)

The Apex Instruments Heated Stainless Filter Assembly (SFA-82H) is designed for sampling particulates from industrial sources where space is critical. The filter assembly is held together by a two piece threaded clamping ring with an integral 300-watt ring heater. A Viton® o-ring seals the 82 mm filter and prevents sample bypass. The inlet plate comes standard with a 5/8 inch tube union for swaging directly to a plain probe liner. The outlet plate has 3/8 inch female NPT connection and supplied with a male 3/8 inch full flow quick connect. The mating female quick connect with the thermocouple is supplied with the Unheated Sample Line (USL-o-QST, specify length) or may be ordered separately (part# SFA-82-QCF6). A thermal insulated blanket is supplied with each unit. Available in 120V and 240V. An unheated version is also available without the integral heater and blanket (part# SFA-82).
