WHAT’S MOVING AND SHAKING…
ELECTRONIC FLOW CONTROL
SKC Isothermal Flow Sensor
A patented† flow control sensor from SKC
measures the pressure drop across a
tube, compares it to a calibration stored in
the pump memory, and constantly adjusts
the pump motor to maintain the required
flow to within ± 3%.
† U.S. Patent No. 5,892,160
SKC ISOTHERMAL FLOW
SENSOR

3.
Meaures the flow rate directly and
maintains the flow through a closedloop system.
Achieves the set flow immediately
without a lot of fluctuation and a long
settling time.
Adjusts for variations in temperature
and atmospheric pressure.

PUMP FLOW CALIBRATION

New SKC pumps will display
the flow rate on the display
screen as measured by the
internal flow sensor
 Calibration can be verified
by an external primary flow
standard and adjusted.

PUMP FLOW CALIBRATION
SKC CalChek®
This SKC patented* feature allows a CalChek
capable SKC pump and Defender or DryCal®
DC-Lite primary flow calibrator to
communicate directly.
 When connected, the pump adjusts the flow
until the displayed values of both agree.

Longer run times
By utilizing new battery technology and
optimizing the pump pneumatics for
reduced power requirements, extended
run times for 10 to 12 hour workplace
sampling or 24-hour indoor air
assessments can be achieved.

BATTERY CHARGERS

Users want small, portable chargers that work
for multiple pumps.
 The new SKC PowerFlex® is a revolutionary,
patented‡ charging technology.
 Charges up to 5 different SKC personal
pumps by inserting pump-specific cables into
the charger box
 No need to carry multiple chargers for
multiple types of SKC pumps
‡ Patented by Galaxy Power, Inc.
SKC POWERFLEX

Smart - continuously monitors charging
voltage and automatically switches to trickle
mode at full charge
 Convenient - patented technology does not
promote memory and discharging is not
required, even on NiCad batteries
 Space Age - technology used on the NASA
space shuttle

PUMP ERGONOMICS
Low Noise

The noise levels of
sampling pumps are
being reduced so
they can be used to
sample in homes
during sleeping
hours.

PUMP ERGONOMICS
Ruggedness

Air samplers have to
be able to withstand
the rigors of
everyday life in a
home or workplace
including impact and
water resistance.

PUMP ERGONOMICS
Small Footprint

Air samplers have to
be of a reasonable
size and weight to
be worn by a person
for a 24-hour period,
including children
and the elderly.
