Sampling Equipment
Aerobiology Research Laboratories (ARL) offers two sampler models: the GRIPS-99M and the GRIPST-2009. The GRIPS series sampler was designed specifically for conducting qualitative analysis of the particles in the air, but can be adapted to collect for short periods of time. The GRIPST series samplers can be used for both qualitative and quantitative sampling applications by providing settings to allow collections at varying duty cycles.
Aerobiology Research Laboratories (ARL) provides annual maintenance and calibration programs ensuring equipment reliably functions and extends the life of the samplers. ARL performs maintenance checks on all brands of Rotation Impaction Samplers including our own models.
USD prices are approximate and will be priced based on current trading rates.
GRIPST-2009
The GRIPST-2009 is our flagship sampler. This model is designed for long-term aeroallergen monitoring projects. The compact sampler casing is constructed from galvanized steel, with a tightly-closing hatch for easy access to the sampler internals. All exterior components are rated NEMA-4 or better. This model includes a super-heavy-duty maintenance-free Maxon motor for extended life, and a voltage regulator that provides stable rotation speed for any >12VDC power source and the ability to adjust and calibrate rotation speed to suit the needs of the monitoring project. This sampler incorporates a solid-state relay timer that allows the sampler to be set to any desired duty cycle, and is equipped with a 1.5" long sampling head mounting post, C&C machined, to reduce air turbulence.
SPECIFICATIONS
Dimensions: 16cm x 18cm x 16cm (including post)
Weight: 2.5 kg
Input Power: DC 12V to 30V, 300mA
Power Plug: Banana jacks, screw clamp
Sampler comes with an auto-retracting sampling head for "Type-I" sampling rods, and a package of 100 "Type-I" rods. Samplers are shipped calibrated to 2400RPM, and set to a 10% duty cycle (one minute on, nine minutes off) when applicable. Power cord must be purchased separately.

GRIPS-99M
The GRIPS-99M, as with its predecessor GRIPS-99, is targeted primarily for agricultural uses and other qualitative sampling applications. Featured components include a rugged, waterproof PVC plastic casing suitable for all types of extreme weather, a rain shield roof to protect samples from wash off, a super-heavy-duty maintenance-free Maxon motor for extended life, and voltage regulator that provides constant rotation speed for any >12VDC power source and allowing for adjustment and calibration. This sampler is equipped with a one and one-half inch sampling head mounting post, designed to reduce air turbulence and thus optimize pollen and fungal spore collection. The post has been C&C machined for balance to reduce motor wear.
