Product Description
CO 60 PPM / CH₄ 58% LEL Pentane Equivalent / O₂ 15.0% Calibration Gas – 221L
This pentane-equivalent calibration gas is designed for extended runtime calibration in extreme oxygen-deficient hydrocarbon environments, where standard methane-based calibration does not reflect real-world gas response.
The mixture includes Carbon Monoxide (CO) 60 PPM for toxic gas calibration, Methane (CH₄) 1.45% (58% LEL Pentane Equivalent) for pentane-scaled combustible response, and Oxygen (O₂) 15.0% to simulate critical oxygen-deficient conditions.
Supplied in a 221L steel cylinder at 250 PSI with a CGA-165 valve, this disposable configuration supports longer calibration intervals, reducing downtime and cylinder change frequency in active calibration programs.
