Product Description
4-Gas Calibration Gas – 25 PPM H2S / 50 PPM CO / 2.5% (50% LEL) CH4 / 16.0% O2 – 60L C-10 Cylinder
This 4-gas calibration gas blend is formulated for controlled hypoxic condition validation during multi-gas monitor calibration and bump testing.
With 16.0% oxygen, this mixture models progressive atmospheric oxygen depletion encountered in high-risk confined space environments. It allows safety professionals to confirm low-O₂ alarm activation prior to IDLH-level exposure while simultaneously verifying toxic and combustible sensor response curves.
Concentration profile:
-
25 PPM Hydrogen Sulfide for electrochemical H₂S sensor verification
-
50 PPM Carbon Monoxide for conservative CO threshold validation
-
2.5% Methane (50% LEL) to confirm catalytic bead or IR combustible sensor accuracy
-
16.0% Oxygen to validate falling-atmosphere response and alarm escalation
This blend is frequently specified for:
-
High-risk confined space entry programs
-
Wastewater and utility vault safety testing
-
Rescue team certification drills
-
Facilities operating internal oxygen alarms below OSHA minimum thresholds
-
Advanced EHS compliance audits
The 60L cylinder offers a mid-capacity option ideal for safety teams requiring repeated calibration cycles without the footprint of larger 116L or 120L cylinders.
