OSHA Versatile Sampler (OVS)
Organic materials with boiling points between 250ºC and 350ºC are classified as Semivolatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs). These substances partially evaporate into the air, forming a mix of mist and vapour. For example, cigarette smoke contains both visible tobacco tar mist and invisible chemical vapours. Detecting and analysing SVOCs accurately is critical for workplace safety and regulatory compliance.
Why SVOC Testing Matters
Monitoring SVOCs is essential to protect workers from harmful exposures, assess compliance with occupational health standards, and ensure a safe working environment. In industrial settings, the presence of SVOCs can pose significant health risks if not managed effectively. Partnering with an experienced laboratory for precise testing ensures reliable results and adherence to regulations.
