The Draeger 6728541 Gas Detector Tube is a disposable, colorimetric tube used with a Draeger tube pump to measure Trichloroethylene concentrations in air. This 2/a tube model is designed for short-term workplace monitoring, capturing changes in ambient levels with a defined response window and a straightforward readout based on the calibrated color change inside the tube. It is positioned for quick, on-site screening of potential Trichloroethylene exposure in environments where vapors may be present, such as painting, degreasing, and parts cleaning areas where solvent use occurs.
Construction features include a glass tube with a break-off tip that enables safe sample collection and release of the reactive indicator compounds during the test. The product is packaged as a box containing 10 tubes, providing multiple tests per kit for ongoing monitoring needs. The standard measurement ranges for this tube are 20–250 ppm and 2–50 ppm, with results typically read after a 1.5 to 2.5 minute interval, depending on the concentration and pump performance. This information matters for planning exposure assessments and ensuring timely decision-making in environment, health, and safety programs.
When using the tube, operators should employ a compatible Draeger pump to ensure proper sample draw and consistent results. The glass tube with a break-off tip is designed for single-use applications, and care should be taken to follow the manufacturer’s procedure for handling and disposal after testing. This product is suitable for use in general air monitoring contexts where Trichloroethylene exposure is a concern and where rapid, field-based measurement is desirable.
