Product Description
116L 1000 PSI 4-Gas Calibration Gas – 17.0% Oxygen Displacement Validation
This 4-gas calibration cylinder is configured for programs that require confirmation of oxygen alarm activation under significant deficiency conditions rather than minimum compliance thresholds.
Gas Blend Specifications
| Component | Concentration |
|---|---|
| Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S) | 25 PPM |
| Carbon Monoxide (CO) | 100 PPM |
| Methane (CH₄) | 2.5% (50% LEL) |
| Oxygen (O₂) | 17.0% |
| Balance | Nitrogen |
The 17.0% oxygen concentration creates a defined displacement scenario to verify detector responsiveness under deeper deficiency exposure.
Cylinder Data Summary
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Cylinder Size | 116L (4.0 Cubic Feet) |
| Fill Pressure | 1000 PSI |
| Valve | C-10 |
| Material | Aluminum |
| Reactivity | Reactive |
The 1000 PSI fill rating supports predictable calibration scheduling while maintaining compatibility with widely deployed fixed-flow C-10 regulators.
Performance Validation Focus
This blend is commonly used for:
• Confirming oxygen alarm escalation
• Verifying sensor recovery after deficiency exposure
• Structured calibration intervals
• Industrial hygiene program documentation
• Multi-gas monitor fleet management
Methane at 2.5% represents 50% LEL for combustible sensor confirmation.
CO at 100 PPM supports standard toxic gas calibration points.
Why 116L Instead of 120L?
The 116L configuration offers:
• High calibration capacity
• Slightly lower fill pressure than 1050 PSI models
• Consistent regulator compatibility
• Optimized volume for structured maintenance programs
This format is often selected for facilities balancing usage volume with standard regulator systems.
