30 Sample Pump (Figure 1) is a portable battery-powered air sample pump that maintains constant airflow from
10 to 30 L/min for use with the BioStage
cassettes, or other samplers requiring flows up to 30 L/min. A diaphragm pump operating with a closed loop flow control system, the
QuickTake 30 maintains true constant flow. The QuickTake 30 features a programmable timer that provides up to eight programmable
run time presets of 1 to 999 minutes, continuous run with manual shut-off, or intermittent sampling. A rechargeable lithium-ion battery
pack provides effective run times. See Appendix: Performance Profile - Typical Cumulative Run Time.
