OVERVIEW

Portable Ethane Supply for Field Calibration and Safety

When you are out in the field testing gas detectors or setting up safety monitoring systems, portability and reliability are your top priorities. The 17L Disposable Ethane Cylinder provides a lightweight and easy-to-handle source of 99.99% pure Ethane, perfect for on-site calibration of LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) sensors and other gas detection equipment. Industrial environments, particularly in the oil and gas sector, require frequent bump testing and calibration of safety gear to ensure worker protection. This disposable cylinder allows technicians to carry the necessary gas supply directly to the hazard zone without dragging around heavy, refillable tanks.

Designed for the practical tradesperson, this cylinder is straightforward to use. It utilizes a standard C-10 connection, which fits most standard regulators used for calibration gases. This means you can likely use your existing regulator equipment without needing specialized adapters. The 17-liter capacity offers a sufficient quantity of gas for multiple calibration cycles while remaining small enough to fit in a tool bag or truck organizer. Once the cylinder is empty, it can be disposed of according to local regulations, freeing you from the hassle of tracking rental cylinders or managing return logistics.

Safety and accuracy go hand in hand. Using high-purity 4.0 grade Ethane ensures that your equipment is calibrated against a known, clean standard, reducing the risk of false readings or sensor drift. Whether you are working in a refinery, a pipeline station, or a chemical processing plant, having a reliable source of calibration gas is non-negotiable. This product delivers professional-grade performance in a package designed for the mobile workforce, ensuring your equipment is always ready for the job.

FAQ

The Ethane is Grade 4.0, which means it is 99.99% pure.

No, this is a disposable, non-refillable cylinder designed for one-time use.

It typically uses a C-10 (5/8"-18 UNF) connection, which is standard for 17L and 34L calibration gas cylinders.

The cylinder contains 17 liters of expanded gas.

It is primarily used for calibrating gas detection instruments and for laboratory analysis.

Ensure the cylinder is completely empty and the valve is removed or punctured using a proper recycling tool, then dispose of it as scrap metal according to local regulations.

No, Ethane is a fuel gas but this specific product is a high-purity calibration gas, not intended or sized for welding or cutting applications.

While shelf life can vary, high-purity hydrocarbons like Ethane in steel disposable cylinders typically have a shelf life of 2-3 years.
