Product Description
Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) 10.0% / Methane (CH₄) 15.0% Calibration Gas Cylinder
This CO₂ / CH₄ calibration gas mixture balanced with Nitrogen (N₂) is designed for calibration and verification of methane gas detection instruments used in industrial safety monitoring programs.
The mixture contains 10.0% Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) and 15.0% Methane (CH₄) with Nitrogen serving as the balance gas, providing a stable mixture used for testing combustible gas sensors and verifying methane detector response.
The 17L disposable steel cylinder provides a portable calibration option for technicians performing routine detector calibration, bump testing, and field servicing of gas monitoring equipment.
Calibration gases play a critical role in maintaining accurate sensor response and ensuring methane detection systems properly identify combustible gas hazards.
