Product Description
Severe Oxygen Deficiency Calibration Gas – 18.0% O₂ | 60L Reactive Cylinder
When validating confined space safety programs, confirming alarm activation at significantly reduced oxygen levels is critical. This 60L 4-gas calibration blend at 18.0% O₂ provides a measurable deficiency margin below OSHA’s 19.5% minimum threshold.
Gas Blend Overview
-
Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S): 10 PPM
-
Carbon Monoxide (CO): 50 PPM
-
Methane (CH₄): 2.5% (50% LEL)
-
Oxygen (O₂): 18.0%
-
Balance: Nitrogen
At 18.0% oxygen, this mixture enables controlled validation of low-O₂ alarm setpoints while simultaneously verifying toxic and combustible sensor channels in portable multi-gas detectors.
Cylinder Configuration
-
Size: 60L
-
Pressure: 1000 PSI
-
Valve: C-10
-
Material: Aluminum
-
Reactivity: Reactive
-
Approximate Volume: 2.1 Cubic Feet
The 1000 PSI fill pressure delivers consistent flow characteristics for recurring bump testing cycles across multiple monitors.
Operational Use Cases
-
Confined space entry compliance
-
Safety audit preparation
-
Industrial hygiene monitoring
-
Oil & gas facility maintenance
-
Utility and wastewater safety programs
Compatible with standard C-10 demand flow regulators used with most major portable gas detection platforms.
Performance Advantages
• Validates alarm activation below OSHA threshold
• Confirms multi-sensor response in a single test cycle
• Mid-volume capacity for recurring safety programs
• Reactive formulation engineered for stable sensor interaction
If your required gas composition, oxygen setpoint, or PSI rating differs, custom blends are available upon request.
