Product Description
CH₄ 500 ppm / Nitrogen (N₂) Balance Calibration Gas
Maintain reliable gas detector performance with CH₄ 500 ppm / Nitrogen (N₂) balance calibration gas, formulated for calibration, detector verification, and preventative maintenance of compatible methane gas detection and monitoring systems. Supplied in a 66-liter refillable aluminum cylinder at 1150 PSI with a C-10 valve connection, this non-reactive custom calibration gas mixture provides a defined methane concentration for verifying sensor response and maintaining measurement accuracy.
Containing 500 ppm methane (CH₄) with nitrogen as the balance gas, this calibration mixture is intended for compatible instruments designed to measure methane at parts-per-million concentrations. Using the appropriate calibration standard helps verify sensor response, identify potential instrument drift, and maintain reliable methane measurements for industrial, environmental, and occupational monitoring applications.
