WE ARE THE MANUFACTURE:
Our Tedlar bags utilize a patent pending 2-in-1 fitting. By combining a shut-off valve and Teflon-lined septum, you are able to fill the bag and remove the sample for analysis with one fitting. The stem is used to connect 1/8" ID tubing for filling and emptying the bag. The septum can be used for removing the sample using a syringe. Fittings are available in polypropylene, stainless steel, and Teflon.
Bag Size:
0.5 L: 5'' x 9''1 L: 7'' x 9''3 L: 13'' x 9''5 L: 16'' x 10''10 L: 14.5'' x 18''
Guidelines:
- Store Tedlar bags in a clean area away from potential contamination sources.
- Tedlar bags are designed for use at atmospheric pressure. Over pressurization (>2 psi) can cause the bags to burst.
- Always ensure the bag, fitting, and tubing materials are appropriate for the compounds being sampled.
- CEL Scientific does not recommend reusing Tedlar bags in most cases.
To fill the bag:
- Connect the appropriate tubing (1/8" ID) from a sampling source to the stem on the side of the fitting.
- Open the valve by holding the stem and turning the top portion of the fitting counterclockwise one turn.
- When the bag is full (approx. 90% capacity), close the valve by holding the stem and turning the top portion of the fitting clockwise until it is finger tight.
To withdraw the sample using a syringe:
- Insert the needle into the red septum on the top of the fitting.
- Withdraw the sample and remove the needle, the septum will reseal itself. (Do not allow the needle to pierce the Tedlar film on the back side of the bag)
