Air Monitoring Canisters: SilcoCan®
- High quality, metal-to-metal seal, 2/3-turn valve with stainless steel diaphragms.
- Sizes to support a wide range of sampling needs.
- 2-port or 3-port valve available; 3-port valve includes -30" Hg/60psi vacuum/pressure gauge (other gauges available).
- Unsurpassed inertness, even for sulfur-containing or brominated compounds.
- For critical applications, order a Siltek® treated valve--add suffix “-650” to the catalog number of the canister.

For ultimate inertness, we treat SilcoCan® air monitoring canisters with our unique Siltek® passivation technology. Even highly active components, at low parts-per-billion concentrations, can be readily sampled and stored without loss. The valve is a high quality, metal-to-metal seal, 2/3-turn valve with metal diaphragms. Both stainless steel and Siltek® treated valves are available, in both the 2-port and 3-port configurations.
Whether you are monitoring for TO-14A, TO-15, or reactive sulfur compounds, SilcoCan® canisters are your best choice for inertness. In Tedlar® bags, the stability of low-level (100ppbv) sulfur volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is poor, even within 24 hours of sampling. Sulfur compounds react with the metal surface in electropolished canisters, so these canisters are unsuitable for collecting and storing low-level sulfur VOCs. SilcoCan® air monitoring canisters, which feature a Siltek® treated surface, offer excellent storage stability for sulfur VOCs at very low levels (1--20ppbv), under dry or humid conditions. The versatility of the SilcoCan® canister makes it an excellent choice for collecting and storing TO-14A or TO-15 compounds.
Instruction Sheets:
Restek canisters are originally equipped with high-quality Parker Hannifin diaphragm valves. Each valve is helium leak-tested to 4 x 10
-9cc/sec. The all-stainless steel construction eliminates contamination and withstands temperatures from -100°C to 250°C. Other features include a compression outlet fitting and a 1/4" inlet and outlet.
*If attaching any of Restek's passive sampling kits to a 3L canister, use a Siltek treated (cat.# 563646) or stainless steel (cat.# 563647) connector between the two components.
