RadCon Swipe Tool

Category: Characterization > Sampling & Analysis Equipments > Environmental Sampling Equipment
Reference # : Model No : 100910-100R2

Intellegration developed a long reach tool designed to help obtain a smear safely in hard-to-reach places and in areas that would be hazardous for a technician to take a smear. Samples are able to be taken at the exact location needed to ensure a representative sample. The tool has five joints to achieve a complete range of tip positioning. This tip achieves maximum surface contact even while swabbing over curved surfaces. The tool is light weight (5.5 pounds / 2.5 Kg.) with a tip payload (horizontal) of 7 lbs. extended, 15 lbs. collapsed; retracts and folds to 51”, extends to 118” (about 10’ long).
