3M 7000131707 Span Gas Cylinder

Product Description

The 3M 7000131707 is a span gas cylinder used for calibrating gas detection instruments and monitors. Span gas serves as a reference concentration during the bump testing and full calibration of portable and fixed gas detectors. This cylinder provides a known gas mixture that allows technicians to verify sensor accuracy and confirm that alarms trigger at correct setpoints. Industrial hygienists, safety technicians, and confined-space entry crews typically work with span gas cylinders as part of routine instrument maintenance and pre-entry protocols. The cylinder ships as a single unit and weighs 1.92 pounds.

This span gas cylinder is suited for use in industrial, commercial, and occupational safety applications where gas detector calibration is required on a scheduled or as-needed basis. It is appropriate for environments where regulatory compliance demands documented instrument verification, including confined space programs, hazardous material handling sites, and facilities with fixed gas monitoring systems. Always verify that the cylinder gas mixture matches the target sensor type before use.

Key Features

• Known-concentration span gas formulation for accurate sensor calibration and bump testing
• Single-cylinder unit format for straightforward field and shop use
• Compatible with standard calibration regulator fittings used in gas detection maintenance
• Lightweight at 1.92 pounds for portable calibration workflows
• Sold individually, allowing technicians to order exact quantities needed

Compatibility

Designed as a calibration supply for use with compatible 3M gas detection instruments and sensors that accept this span gas formulation. Verify instrument manufacturer requirements and cylinder gas composition before use.

Installation Notes

Span gas cylinder connections and regulator attachment should be performed by a qualified safety technician or industrial hygienist familiar with gas detector calibration procedures. Ensure the detector is powered on and in calibration mode before introducing span gas, and use only a regulator and tubing rated for the cylinder fitting. Store and transport cylinders upright in a cool, ventilated area away from heat sources and open flame. Follow all applicable OSHA and site safety program requirements for compressed gas handling.
