- Obtain readings from hard to reach places with the tubes, pump and accessories
- Carry out measurements on the spot
- 10 seconds to 15 minutes is the potential time frame for readings to be taken and is dependent on the type of tube used
- Pre-entry checks and confined space entry are two applications which can use tubes
- Additional applications may include variations in concentration levels and also contamination of breathing areas

Cross Sensitivity | |
The indication is not affected by: 1,000 ppm acetone 20 ppm benzene 1,000 ppm ethyl acetate 1,000 ppm ethanol 10 ppm ethyl benzene 1,000 ppm hexane 100 ppm toluene Styrene up to 50 ppm does not influence the indication. Butadiene reacts with the oxidation layer; in the presence of butadiene, the acylonitrile indication will be too low (e.g. up to 50 % too low with 400 ppm butadiene). |
