Product Description
CO 60 PPM / CH₄ 58% LEL Pentane Equivalent / O₂ 15.0% Calibration Gas – 34L
This pentane-equivalent calibration gas is built for accurate LEL and oxygen validation in extreme hydrocarbon environments, where standard methane calibration does not reflect real-world conditions.
The mixture combines 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 atmospheres.
Packaged in a 34L steel cylinder at 500 PSI with a CGA-600 valve, this disposable format is designed for portable, field-based calibration and bump testing.
