Product Description
221L 4 Gas Calibration Gas – 40% LEL Methane, CO, O₂ (Extended Runtime Cylinder)
This 221L 4 gas calibration gas is designed for extended-duration multi-gas detector calibration, featuring 50 PPM Carbon Monoxide (CO), 2.0% Methane (40% LEL), and 20.9% Oxygen (O₂) balanced in nitrogen.
With a low-pressure CGA-165 configuration, this cylinder is ideal for controlled, continuous calibration workflows, allowing teams to perform repeated or long-duration calibration without frequent cylinder replacement.

221L vs Other 40% LEL Options
- 34L → portable precision
- 60–120L → field
- 221L (this SKU) → extended runtime
- 680L → facility-scale
40% vs 50% LEL Calibration
- 50% LEL (2.5% CH₄) → standard calibration
- 40% LEL (this SKU) → controlled, lower-range validation
Valve Type Context
- CGA-600 → portable regulated
- C-10 → standard field systems
- CGA-165 (this SKU) → low-pressure, extended flow systems
