Product Description
CH₄ 5.0% / Nitrogen (N₂) Balance Calibration Gas
Protect the accuracy of your gas detection equipment with this CH₄ 5.0% / Nitrogen (N₂) balance calibration gas, formulated for calibration, bump testing, and preventative maintenance of portable and fixed gas detection systems. Packaged in a 680-liter aluminum cylinder with an 1800 PSI fill pressure and a CGA specific valve connection, this non-reactive calibration gas mixture delivers stable, repeatable gas concentrations for precise detector verification and long-term instrument reliability.
Calibration Gas Composition
| Gas | Concentration |
|---|---|
| Methane (CH₄) | 5.0% |
| Balance Gas | Nitrogen (N₂) |
This methane calibration gas is designed for industrial hygienists, EHS professionals, maintenance technicians, and safety managers responsible for calibrating combustible gas detectors used throughout oil & gas, manufacturing, wastewater treatment, mining, utilities, chemical processing, confined space entry, and other industrial environments where accurate gas detection is critical to workplace safety and regulatory compliance.
