Tube Chloropikrine 0.1/a (10) | Draeger

Dräger Chloropicrin 0.1/a (10) Detection Tube

• Chemical Detected: Chloropicrin (CCl3NO2)

• Detection Range: Typically, the range is 0.1 - 10 ppm (parts per million) of Chloropicrin in the air, depending on the specific tube model.

• Tube Type: The tube is a Dräger colorimetric detection tube, designed for measuring concentrations of specific chemicals in the air.

• Operating Method: The tube is used with a Dräger pump. Air is drawn through the tube using a hand pump, and the color change inside the tube indicates the concentration of the gas.

• Color Change Indicator: When Chloropicrin is present, the tube undergoes a color change that correlates to the concentration of Chloropicrin in the sample of air.

• Application: Chloropicrin is often used as a fumigant in agriculture, but it can also be a hazardous substance in various industrial environments. This tube is ideal for detecting low levels of Chloropicrin in work environments, ensuring safety during handling or exposure.

• Unit Pack: Typically, tubes are sold in packs containing a number of individual tubes (e.g., a box of 10 tubes).

Usage Instructions

• Step 1: Insert the detection tube into the Dräger hand pump.

• Step 2: Pump air through the tube and check for the color change.

• Step 3: Compare the resulting color change to a reference chart to determine the concentration of Chloropicrin in the air.

Storage and Safety

• Storage: Keep the tubes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.

• Safety: Chloropicrin is a toxic substance, and its fumes can be harmful. Proper ventilation and personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used when using this detection tube to measure the gas. Always follow safety protocols.
