Product Description
4-Gas Confined Space Calibration Gas – 25 PPM H2S / 50 PPM CO / 2.5% (50% LEL) CH4 / 20.9% O2 – 44L
This 4-gas calibration gas blend is engineered for routine bump testing and full calibration of portable multi-gas monitors used in confined space and industrial safety programs.
The concentration profile supports facilities operating with reduced carbon monoxide alarm setpoints:
-
25 PPM Hydrogen Sulfide for toxic exposure sensor validation
-
50 PPM Carbon Monoxide calibration for conservative CO thresholds
-
2.5% Methane (50% LEL) for combustible sensor accuracy
-
20.9% Oxygen for atmospheric baseline confirmation
This mixture is commonly used in wastewater treatment plants, oil & gas sites, utilities, and industrial manufacturing environments requiring OSHA-aligned confined space compliance.
The 44L cylinder provides a compact, field-friendly calibration solution for mobile technicians and short-cycle bump testing programs.
