Calibrate With Confidence: From Trace Gas to Percent-Level Gases
Permeation tubes and systems that dynamically generate fresh, NIST-traceable gas standards offer significant benefits for calibration and R&D applications, particularly when working with trace concentrations in laboratory or industrial settings.
Permeation tube technology offers a precise, flexible alternative to gas cylinders for generating NIST-traceable standards on demand. Danet Vrazel of KIN-TEK Analytical, Inc. outlines how this approach streamlines calibration for labs and industrial sites alike, covering trace-level work from ppm to ppt, field-ready systems for process GCs, and when to shift to percent-level gases. Additionally, she covers how automation and data logging provide consistency and confidence for every calibration.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Recognize the advantages of using permeation tubes for trace gas calibration.
- Understand the benefits of an automated permeation tube system with data logging capabilities.
- Learn how to move beyond trace concentrations to percent-level gases for calibration.
