Product Description
Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) 50.0% / Methane (CH₄) 50.0% Calibration Gas – 34L Cylinder
Accurate gas detection requires calibration using precise reference mixtures. This two-gas calibration blend contains Carbon Dioxide and Methane at equal 50% concentrations, providing a stable calibration standard for detectors monitoring combustible and carbon dioxide environments.
The mixture delivers 50% CO₂ and 50% CH₄, commonly used for instrument verification, detector response testing, and calibration of gas monitoring equipment operating in industrial and research environments.
Supplied in a 34L disposable steel cylinder with CGA-600 valve, this compact calibration cylinder is ideal for field technicians, laboratory testing, and portable detector maintenance programs.
