Trichloroethylene Detection Tubes (2 to 250 ppm)
Gastec Detection Tube No. 132M measures Trichloroethylene with a Range of 2 to 250 ppm.
- Measuring Range:
- 2 to 5 ppm
- 5 to 100 ppm
- 100 to 250 ppm
- Number of Pump Strokes: 2, 1, 1/2
- Correction Factor: 0.4, 1, 2.5
- Sampling Time: 1 minute per pump stroke
- Detecting Limit: 0.4 ppm (2 pump strokes)
- Changes from Yellow to Reddish Purple
- Corrections for temperature & humidity: Temperature correction is necessary
- Reaction principle:
- Cl2C:CHCl + PbO2 + H2SO4 → HCl
- HCl + Basic Compound → Chloride
- Relative Standard Deviation: 10% (for 5 to 20 ppm), 5% (for 20 to 100 ppm)
- 2 Year Shelf Life (in the refrigerator)
- Store the tubes in the refrigerator to keep at 10ºC (50ºF) or below.
- This detector tube can also be used with the Gastec Water Pollutant Analysis Systems to measure trichloroethylene in the water. With these systems, samples are collected by using a syringe.
