Mercury Vapour Analysers: Finding the Right Fit for Your Needs

Agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulate and set strict limits on the amount of mercury vapour which can be present in air: 1μg/m3 for residential properties and 25μg/m3 for industrial properties. To ensure compliance with these regulations, industrial hygienists, clean-up crews and government agencies rely on portable instrumentation to measure mercury vapour levels on site. There are many different technologies which can be used to detect mercury, and some may be more appropriate in certain environments than others.
