The SGFA-47NK is Apex Instruments
latest in-stack filter assembly kit. This features our unique design
combination borosilicate glass 47mm filter inlet with integrated
nozzle. This design allows the option to weigh the glass fiber filter
media individually per Method 17 or similarly to Method 5I by weighing
the combined nozzle, filter media with support, o-ring and PTFE tape.
The kit includes the standard array of seven nozzle sizes from 1/8 inch
to 1/2 inch. |
Glass In-Stack Filter Assemblies
|
The Apex Instruments GFA-2590 Thimble Holder
is constructed totally from borosilicate glass for use with Conditional
Method for Ammonia (CTM-027) and accepts tapered 25x90mm thimbles
specifically manufactured for stack sampling (See page 30 for Filter
Media). Our design does not require the use of o-rings. This allows for
testing at higher temperatures. The borosilicate glass will withstand
temperatures up to 480°C (900°F)
The GFA-2590K In-Stack Thimble Holder Kit includes
a selection of the seven most commonly used nozzle inserts from 1/8
inch to 1/2 inch and one housing. The entire kit is conveniently
packaged in a foam-lined carrying case for protection. The thimble
holder connects directly to the end of the probe with a 5/8 inch tube
union. Included in the kit is one Metal Taper Clip (KTM-29). Made of
durable nickel plated steel to withstand temperatures of up to
500°C (932°F), this clip securely holds the conical
joint under pressure.
