The XC-6000EPC MercSampler™ meter console captures all data necessary for paired sorbent trap sampling according to Appendix K and Method 30B. The meter console controls the sample flow rate proportionally to the stack flow rate and determines the standardized volume extracted through each sorbent trap. To collect the samples, two diaphragm vacuum pumps which work with the proportional valves and mass flow sensors, pull the samples through sorbent traps. Paired samples are extracted from the flue gas for the desired time period, from several minutes to several days. There are optical encoders mounted inside the gas meters to provide digital data for the volume sampled. Samples are then analyzed to determine time-averaged emissions.

The XC-30B MercSampler™ Console, designed especially for performing Method 30B, simplifies sampling requirements by automating data acquisition, sample flow adjustments, leak checks, calculations, temperature control, and calibrations. Data is easily transferred to a Microsoft Windows Based PC through USB Interface. The XC-30B MercSampler performs dual sorbent trap sampling at flow rates up to 2.0 lpm. Can be operated with your choice of probes and gas conditioning systems, including our popular SGC-4000HGP Stirling Gas Conditioner.
