The Draeger 8101231 Gas Detector Tube is designed for on-site measurement of benzene exposure, using the classic Draeger-tube method. When used with a Draeger tube pump, this glass tube provides a quick, colorimetric indication of benzene concentrations in air within its standard range, making it suitable for spot checks in industrial environments where volatile organic compounds are a concern.
Constructed as a glass detector tube with a break-off tip, this unit is packaged as a 10-box set and is intended for use in environments where rapid, qualitative to semi-quantitative benzene assessment is needed. The tube’s measurement range is 2–60 parts per million (ppm) with an 8-minute response time, enabling operators to gauge exposure levels and make timely decisions about ventilation, engineering controls, or personal protective equipment. The 2–60 ppm window reflects a common field range for benzene screening rather than highly precise laboratory analysis.
For use, it is essential to operate within the specified conditions and interpret results according to Draeger’s standard procedures for tube-based measurements. The packaging and break-off tip design support straightforward, one-time use with a compatible Draeger pump, and the box quantity (10 per box) helps maintain supply for routine sampling campaigns in facilities handling solvents or aromatic hydrocarbons. This description reflects the product’s identity and documented features without extrapolating beyond the manufacturer’s stated capabilities.
