The Draeger 8101511 Gas Detector Tube is a disposable, single-use indicator designed for quick field screening of hydrogen concentrations in air. Used in conjunction with a Draeger tube pump, this tube provides a visual readout based on color change to indicate the presence and approximate level of hydrogen within a 0.2% to 2.0% volume range. Each tube is made from glass and is shipped in a box containing 10 tubes, ready for measurement tasks in environments where hydrogen gas monitoring is important but a full analytical instrument is not practical.
Key construction features include a break-off tip for easy sample intake and a defined measurement time of approximately one minute. The tube’s specification targets the gas detected as hydrogen at 0.2%/a, aligning with common quick-check workflows where rapid confirmation of gas presence and rough concentration is needed. The glass tube design and fixed calibration support consistent results across multiple measurements when used with the appropriate Draeger pump equipment.
Practical considerations for users include ensuring that the Draeger pump is compatible with this tube and that the measurement is performed in a representative air sample to avoid localized concentration bias. Packaging is a box consisting of 10 tubes, which supports small- to medium-scale monitoring tasks or initial screening in work areas where hydrogen hazards are possible. As with all detector tubes, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use and disposal after measurement to maintain accuracy and safety in field operations.
