Store the tubes in the refrigerator to keep at 10ºC (50ºF) or below. |
Substance | Concentration | Interference | Change colour by itself to |
Carbon monoxide | 500 ppm | + | Black |
sulphur dioxide, Carbon disulphide | + | White | |
Carbon dioxide | No | No | |
Nitrogen dioxide | 2 ppm | + | Brown |
Hydrogen sulphide | 1000 ppm | + | White |
Propane, Butane | 10% | No | Black at the top of the discoloured area. |
*In case the primary tube is totally discolours, analyzer tube will give white discolouration by hydrogen sulphide. |
