ABSTRACT:
An device for monitoring workplace air comprises a monitor cell comprising a base and a removable assembly. The removable assembly comprises (1) a flat, electrically insulating substrate having a first surface, (2) an electrolyte cell having an anode and a cathode disposed on the first surface, the anode and cathode spaced apart to define a controlled volume for holding a quantity of an electrolyte, and (3) means for applying a controlled electrical potential to the cathode. The base comprises (1) an air inlet portion for sampling air, (2) an air outlet portion connected to an air sampling pump, (3) a channel connecting the air inlet and the air outlet and adapted to introduce air to the electrolyte in the electrolyte cell, (4) a reservoir for storing the electrolyte for the electrolyte cell, and (5) a wick for supplying electrolyte from the reservoir to the electrolyte cell.
