Nitric Oxide and Nitrogen Dioxide Vapor Monitor
Catalog No. NO-10
ACS Vapor Monitor can be worn as a badge near the breathing zone
to measure personal exposure, or placed in a room to measure area
concentration.
Occupational safety standards are based on personal exposure
monitoring of each employee who may be exposed to the vapor as a
regular part of their job. Periodic monitoring of personnel and room
concentrations is recommended
