Latest Technology for Accurately Measuring Opacity and Dust Emissions
The Model 4500 Mk III opacity measurement and dust compliance system fromLand Instruments (UK) has been independently verified by TÜV Rheinland, Germany, to meet the demanding EN 15267 standard for measuring stack emissions and ambient air quality and can now be used for compliance monitoring applications worldwide.
The Model 4500 Mk III is ideally suited for a wide range of industrial applications where opacity compliance and dust emissions measurements are required. The instrument carries a wide range of compliance and performance approvals, including TÜV and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and has gained wide acceptance in the United States with an installed base of more than 1,000 4500 Mk Series instruments.
With its patented highly homogeneous advanced LED light source and patented Flood LED, the Model 4500 Mk III achieves the highest levels of stability and accuracy. Its “no-moving-parts” optical system provides the compact dust emissions monitor with exceptional reliability. The instrument’s outstanding sensitivity, reliability and flexibility make it ideal for current and future opacity and dust concentration measurement applications. Among available options are adapter flanges, air purging and other accessories that make upgrading existing opacity monitoring systems straight forward and easy.
The Model 4500 Mk III joins a growing list of TÜV, MCerts and US EPA certified dust monitoring products offered by Land Instruments, which also offers approved and certified stack emissions monitors for CO, O2, NO, NO2, NOx, SO2 and CO2.

Air Sampling Pump Delivers Greater Versatility, Superior Design And Comfort!
The new Air Sampling Pump by Gilian is now available at Shawcity Limited (UK). The Launch of the product has been eagerly awaited by many who are keen to use the product in their own workplaces. Shawcity are pleased to be associated with a product that fulfils the needs and requirements of our customers.
The GilAir Plus, which only ways a mere 580 grams is equipped with high and low flow air sampling technology allowing the pump to perform high-flow constant pressure and constant flow and low-flow constant pressure. Flow ranges are between 20 – 5000 cc/min proving that this pump is suitable for a wide range of sampling methods. This is all achievable without the use of external adaptors or flow inhibitors!
The pump is able to operate in an ambient or standard mode correcting for temperature and barometric pressure when equipped with STP option.
The pump also has an optional intuitive interface which allows you to easily change settings. The menu and keypad are lockable ensuring that your instrument is safe from vandalism and tampering.
The 1, 3, or 5 way docking stations make it easy for you to charge and data-log. The PC application allows you to generate sampling reports, review datalogs, and create pump set-up profiles that expedite deployment of large pump fleets.
A selectable automatic restart function is also available in the event of a blockage. The pump will automatically restart and restart the pump up to 10 times every 3 minutes.
This highly powerful pump has an 8 hour run time even when run at 5000 cc/min! As you can see this small superior pump encompasses all the latest technology, design and comfort and will allow you to achieve accurate results!.

AS Technical Solutions (UK) is the European distributor of Apex Instruments Inc. The Apex Instruments, Inc. XC-6000EPC Automated MercSampler, is the industry standard for mercury sorbent trap monitoring systems. Designed for continuous sampling of vapor-phase mercury emissions from stationary combustion sources, the XC-6000EPC meter console is fully automated. Paired samples are extracted from the flue gas for the desired time period, from several minutes to several days. Samples are analyzed for determining time- averaged emissions. The XC-6000EPC simplifies sampling requirements by automating data acquisition, sample flow adjustments, leak checks, calculations, temperature control and calibrations. All raw data can be easily transferred to a Microsoft Windows XP-based PC through Ethernet, USB or an optional wireless interface. The meter console controls the sample flow rate proportionally to the stack flow rate and determines the standardized volume extracted through each sorbent trap. In addition to performing as an Appendix K primary system, this unique unit can be used as a back-up monitoring system (redundant or non-redundant) or to perform U.S. EPA Reference Method 30B relative accuracy testing audit (RATA), system certification testing or low mercury emitter determination testing.
Also manufactured by Apex Instruments for use with the XC-6000EPC are dual sorbent trap heated sampling probes, heated sample transfer lines and Stirling gas coolers for conditioning the gas by removing moisture and scrubbing corrosives out of the gas stream before the gas enters the meter console.
To perform quarterly audits, Apex Instruments offers the AK-6000 Audit Kit with a secondary reference dry gas meter with optical encoder, digital quadrature totalizer (15-point calibration), handheld digital barometer, thermocouple sim ulator, thermometer, type K thermocouple, 6” thermocouple “Y” adapter and vacuum insulated ice bath.
The latest addition to the Apex mercury sampling line of products is the MercSampler Automated Software: HGCalc. This new add-on software package uses sample run data and trap analysis. The sample run data from the MercSampler XC-6000EPC is imported into the application, where total mercury mass, hourly and total mercury emissions are calculated. The software insures the specifications in 40CFR, part 75 are met. The software will also verify QA/QC specifications regarding Section 2 breakthrough, relative deviation, and Section 3 spike recovery as shown in Appendix K, table K-1. This application is used to import XC-6000 sample run data and trap analysis data to perform calculations for Appendix K. When all calculations are done and data verified this can be exported currently in Text/PDF format and will be available in an XML report format in the near future.
