Product Description
CH₄ 3.0% (60% LEL) / Nitrogen (N₂) Balance Calibration Gas
Maintain the accuracy of your gas detection equipment with CH₄ 3.0% (60% LEL) / Nitrogen (N₂) balance calibration gas, designed for calibration, bump testing, and preventative maintenance of portable and fixed gas detection systems. Packaged in a 34-liter disposable steel cylinder with a 500 PSI fill pressure and a CGA-600 valve connection, this non-reactive calibration gas mixture provides stable, repeatable gas concentrations for dependable detector verification and consistent sensor performance.
Containing 3.0% methane (60% of the Lower Explosive Limit), this calibration gas is specifically formulated to verify combustible gas detectors that monitor methane concentrations in hazardous industrial environments where accurate LEL measurements are essential for worker safety, regulatory compliance, and reliable gas monitoring.
