Product Description
Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) 35.0% / Methane (CH₄) 65.0% Calibration Gas Cylinder
This carbon dioxide and methane calibration gas mixture is designed for functional testing, bump testing, and calibration of combustible gas detection instruments. The compact 11L disposable aluminum cylinder with trigger valve allows technicians to quickly apply calibration gas during routine maintenance of portable gas monitors.
Containing 35.0% Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) and 65.0% Methane (CH₄), this mixture is commonly used for verifying methane sensor response and ensuring accurate readings from combustible gas detection equipment. Reliable calibration gas is essential for maintaining proper gas monitoring performance in industrial environments where methane hazards may be present.
The 11L trigger valve cylinder is especially useful for quick bump testing and field servicing of portable gas detectors.
