Calibration Gas mixtures play a crucial role in calibrating analytical instruments, gas analyzers, and gas detectors in laboratories and research centers. Here's some additional information about Calibration Gas mixtures:
1. Purpose and Usage: Calibration Gas mixtures are blends of two or more gases, along with a carrier gas, used as reference gases to calibrate analytical instruments. These mixtures ensure the accuracy and reliability of measurement results by providing a known concentration of target gases for calibration purposes.
2. Traceability and Standards: Accurate calibration gas mixtures should always be accompanied by traceability. Traceability involves comparing the mixture to national or international standards to establish its accuracy. The Calibration Gas mixture should adhere to specific Preparation Tolerance Level (PTL) and Certification Accuracy (CA) standards to ensure precise calibration.
3. Accuracy and Gravimetrical Method: Accuracy is crucial for calibration gas mixtures as they serve as the reference for measuring components in air or chemicals. Axcel Gases ensures high accuracy by preparing the mixtures through the gravimetrical method. This method involves measuring each component's weight accurately and blending them accordingly to achieve the desired concentrations.
