“Can I refill my gas cylinder?”
This is one of the most frequently asked questions we receive and unfortunately, the answer is no. Our gas cylinders are not refillable. Once the cylinder is empty (no pressure remaining), it should be punctured and then disposed of at a recycling facility.
Calibration gas plays a critical role in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of gas detection equipment. Learn more about calibration gas and its importance in maintaining safety and accuracy in gas detection:
- What is calibration gas?
Calibration gas is a reference gas or gas mixture used as a comparative standard in the calibration of analytical instruments such as your gas detector. These gases are precisely formulated to match the specific requirements of the gas detection devices they are used with.
- Why is calibration important?
Regular calibration of gas detection equipment is essential to ensure accurate readings and proper functioning. Over time, sensors can drift, leading to inaccurate measurements which can compromise safety and compliance.
- What does calibration do?
Regular calibration of gas detection equipment verifies sensor accuracy, ensuring that the readings from the gas detectors are precise. It also maintains compliance by adhering to safety regulations and industry standards. Additionally, proper calibration enhances safety by protecting your employees and the work environment from hazardous gas leaks.
- Types of calibration gas
Single Gas: Used for detectors that monitor one type of gas, such as hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen.
Mixed Gas: Combines multiple gases in specific ratios for detectors that monitor several gases simultaneously.
- Safe workplace
While our gas cylinders are not refillable they are designed for precise calibration for your gas detection needs. Regular use ensures your equipment stays accurate and compliant, safeguarding your workplace. For any questions or further assistance, feel free to contact us.
