Soil Gas Sample Equipment List
This table shows the commonly used soil gas sampling equipment. While 1 liter canisers will reduct the sampling time, they often do not provide enough volume for low detection limits or multiple analysis so the 3.2 liter canister is recommended. This canister is shaped like the 1 liter canister and is convenient to use.
The soil gas sampler had a flow restrictor that flows at about 150 ml/min.
