Product Description
Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) 40.0% / Methane (CH₄) 50.0% / Nitrogen (N₂) 10.0% Calibration Gas Cylinder
This three-component calibration gas mixture containing Carbon Dioxide (CO₂), Methane (CH₄), and Nitrogen (N₂) is manufactured for calibration and verification of industrial gas detection instruments. The 34L disposable steel cylinder provides a stable mixture used during routine maintenance of methane monitoring systems and combustible gas detection equipment.
Calibration gases play a critical role in ensuring that gas detectors accurately respond to hazardous atmospheres. This mixture is commonly used for combustible gas sensor verification, methane detector calibration, and gas monitor performance testing across industrial safety programs.
The addition of Nitrogen (N₂) as a balance component helps stabilize the mixture and supports consistent calibration performance during detector servicing procedures.
