Product Description
15 ppm Hydrocarbon Calibration Gas – Ultra-Compact Trigger Valve Cylinder for Fast Bump Testing
This ultra-low concentration hydrocarbon calibration gas contains six combustible gases at 15 ppm each, designed for quick and accurate bump testing of portable gas detectors operating at trace-level sensitivity.
The mixture includes methane, ethane, propane, n-butane, pentane, and hexane, ensuring consistent detector response across a wide hydrocarbon range at low concentrations.
Supplied in an 11L aluminum cylinder at 140 PSI with trigger valve, this configuration is built for fast, convenient calibration without the need for a regulator, making it ideal for rapid testing in the field.
Its ultra-compact size is perfect for on-the-go technicians, backup calibration supply, and low-frequency testing scenarios, where ease of use and portability matter most.
