The Draeger 8103281 Gas Detector Tube is a ready-to-use indicator for mercaptans, designed to work with the Draeger tube pump for quick, in-field gas analysis. This single-use detection tube provides a visible measurement range suitable for screening concentrations in air, helping maintenance and safety personnel assess presence of mercaptans in various environments.
Constructed as a glass detector tube with a break-off tip, each tube is calibrated to measure mercaptan concentrations within a standard range of 0.1 to 25 ppm, and a shorter-range span of 3 to 15 ppm, across a defined 3 minutes and 40 seconds test interval. The package is supplied as a box containing 10 tubes, enabling multiple tests without immediate reordering. The 0.1/a designation indicates the nominal detection threshold and alignment with Draeger’s monitoring method, ensuring consistent results when used with the corresponding Draeger tube pump.
These tubes are intended for use with Draeger’s established color- or reaction-based reading methods, typically in air samples across industrial settings where mercaptans may be present. Practical considerations include ensuring proper pump and tube handling, adhering to the specified test duration, and following any site-specific safety protocols when sampling potentially hazardous atmospheres. Compatibility is limited to the Draeger system designed for these detector tubes, and the 10-tube box supports routine monitoring without frequent reordering.
