Technical Information Sheet
Halogenated Anesthetics Vapor Monitor
Catalog No. H-10-3
Simultaneous measurement of waste anesthetic gases: Sevoflurane, Isoflurane, Enflurane, Halothane,
Desflurane, Methoxyflurane.
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
