Case Study — Hg253 Portable Mercury Vapor Analyzer
 
A large metropolitan area of the Midwest, once the home for thousands of mercury laden pressure regulators/gas meters is significantly contaminated through inadvertent and improper removal of these meters. The homes are grossly contaminated with elemental mercury, spilled from the regulators on removal. EPA Region 4 recently passed strict new regulations concerning remediation, and houses built before 1965 must have certification of being mercury-free prior to being sold.
 
The remediation company involved in this work has tested many instruments and selected the Hg253 for this project. It won hands down over the competition through its ease of use, stability, accuracy and lack of interference from common chemicals, water vapor and other elements.
 
Portable, precise, reliable, and easy to operate, the Hg253 Portable Mercury Vapor Analyzer from Genesis Laboratory Systems, is the answer to immediate identification of Mercury contamination problems and safety verification after cleanup operations have completed.
