Product Overview The DAS-100 semi-active sampler is a peripheral device that assists sampling with passive samplers. The product generates a constant air flow near the passive sampler to help prevent any wind speed fluctuations from affecting the sampling rate. One new AA alkaline battery enables over 30 hours of sampling.
Type of Battery Used and Sampler Operation To ensure the product functions properly, use a new AA alkaline battery each time the product is used. The fan and LED functions may not be properly coordinated if the battery is depleted. The product's LED indicator is for confirming the product function when a new alkaline battery is installed.

User Instructions Preparation Perform the following preparations before sampling. Inadequate preparation could not only prevent optimal sampling performance, it could also prevent the sampler from completing the scheduled sampling time. Remove the intake port cap, holder, and extension (for using two types of passive samplers) and clean them with alcohol.

Insert the mounting tube from step (1) into the threaded portion of the intake port cap. Remove the extension from the main semi-active sampler unit. Install the intake port cap onto the semi-active sampler holder. Holding the battery case, remove the battery cap and insert a new AA alkaline battery* into the case, with the negative (-) terminal oriented toward the battery cap.

(C) Sampling Using One Passive Gas Tube (for Organic Solvents) and One DNPH Passive Gas Tube (Total of Two) Install an activated carbon passive gas tube positioning stopper on one end of the passive gas tube (for organic solvents) . Remove the plugs from both ends of the DNPH passive gas tube and install plugs A and B included with the semi-active sampler for installing DNPH passive gas tubes.
After Sampling After the intended sampling time has elapsed, remove the battery from the main unit to shut off the fan motor and stop sampling. Remove the intake port cap and then remove the gas tube from the main unit. Remove the passive gas tube from the intake port cap, being careful to hold the intake port cap.
Troubleshooting Before sending the product in for repairs, inspect it one more time. If it still does not function properly, contact your Sibata representative or the store where you purchased the product. Note: Be sure to operate the product using a new AA alkaline battery.
