Honeywell’s gas detection tubes are a narrow bore, generally single-use only, come pre-calibrated, and in packs of ten. Colorimetric Gas Detection Tubes supplied sealed at both ends; the tips are removed just before use. Operation is by a spring-less piston pump drawing the sample through the tube. The target gas detected produces a colour change of reagent within the tube, the length of which is proportional to the amount of gas present, indicated by the scale on the exterior of the tube.
Gas detection tubes cover a broader range of compounds compared to a portable gas monitor, restricted by four or five single gas sensors. No calibration is required with tubes, easy to use and interpret, providing on-the-spot detection. Accuracy is enhanced when controlling the air throughput using the Honeywell hand-operated piston pump LP-1200.
A cost-effective solution for infrequent or one-off-gas measurement. For particular compounds, tube use can be the only method of detection. Used in National Security, Oil and Gas, Petrochemical, Chemical, Agriculture, Food and Drink, Environmental, Fire Brigades and HazMat response.
