Course Description:
Recorded at AIHce EXP 2021

The PDC will review: 1) the variety of IH measuring equipment available to perform sampling; 2) the capabilities and shortcomings of the measuring equipment; 3) the pitfalls when performing sampling with each type of equipment; 4) IH professionals' understanding of abilities and inabilities of industrial hygiene sampling; and, 5) situations that may inhibit the accuracy and validity of the sampling. For each sampling type, the course will cover available real-time and grab sampling equipment, not manufacturer-specific; explain the way the equipment operates; what it is designed to assess; what it cannot assess; and what conditions may affect the accuracy and validity of the samples. Course participants will be able to use the discussed equipment.

Learning Outcomes

Upon completion, the participant will be able to:

• Select appropriate measuring equipment for IH assessment work.
• Develop knowledge on how to setup the equipment.
• Determine what monitoring to do during IH sampling events to ensure valid sampling results.
