Residue & Powder Sampling Area Kit

Collect residue and powder samples cleanly, quickly and with traceability. The QSA 700 RAPSAK is a small, lightweight field sampling kit designed for obtaining residue and powder samples in operational environments where sterile, single-use components and disciplined sample handling matter.

All sample collection components are sterile and single-use, and the kit supports collection of up to 9 samples (varying size) with chain-of-custody forms supplied to support accountable handling. Each kit is also individually serial-numbered for reach-back and traceability.
