The Draeger 8103485 Gas Detector Tube is a simple, portable solution for detecting MITC (Methyl isothiocyanate) vapors. This glass detector tube is designed for quick, at-a-glance testing in the field, offering a straightforward readout without the need for calibration or extensive setup. With a box of ten tubes, it’s suitable for periodic screening in environments where MITC exposure may be a concern, and its 70+ years of Draeger tube technology underpin its long-standing use in industrial gas detection.
Key design features include a break-off tip for easy sampling, and a compact package size that supports on-the-go use without specialized equipment. Draeger tubes are known for their broad range of gases and vapors, enabling operators to perform targeted assessments with minimal training. The product is intended for single-use sampling across short intervals, and its non-calibrated operation reduces downtime and maintenance considerations common with more complex detectors. Practical use involves breaking the tip to create an access point, drawing a sample through the tube, and reading the colorimetric change according to the standard method applicable to MITC detection.
This item is supplied as a box containing 10 tubes, aligned with typical field procurement and inventory practices. The packaging and single-use design support quick deployment and straightforward replacement when a test is completed or a new screening parameter is needed. As with all detector tubes, ensure the tube is within its validated shelf life and stored per manufacturer guidelines to maintain reliable performance.
