The Draeger 8103801 Gas Detector Tube is a ready-to-use methanol detection solution designed for quick, on-site air monitoring. When paired with a Draeger tube pump, this glass tube provides a visual, colorimetric indication of methanol levels in the workplace air, following a defined measurement window. The tube is configured for a dual-range format, capturing methanol concentrations in the 20–250 ppm and 200–5,000 ppm ranges, with a total measurement time suitable for rapid screening and episodic sampling. Each box contains 10 tubes, aligning with common field-use quantities for batch testing and convenient replenishment in the tool crib or job-site kits.
Key construction details include a glass tube with a break-off tip for controlled sample collection and a defined measurement scale within the specified ranges. The method relies on standard Draeger tube procedures to yield a straightforward, qualitative-to-semiquantitative readout when used with an appropriate Draeger pump, making it a classic, economical option for methanol screening in environments where solvent vapors or combustion byproducts may be present. Handling and storage should follow standard practices for Draeger tubes to maintain accuracy and prevent contamination that could skew readings.
Typical use cases include factory or laboratory settings where methanol exposure is possible, or during processes that involve methanol as a solvent or reagent. The product is packaged as a boxed set of ten tubes, enabling distributed testing across multiple workstations or shifts. Maintain adherence to the manufacturer’s sampling procedure, timing, and interpretation guidelines to ensure results are comparable across tests and over time.
