NAGCO Amines Detector Tubes 0.5-10 ppm | N10-132-10

The NAGCO N10-132-10 Amines Detector Tubes provide direct-reading measurement of amines in air using a manual gas sampling pump. The standard measurement range is 0.5–10 ppm using one 100 mL pump stroke with a sample time of approximately one minute.

For applications requiring measurements outside the standard range, the N10-132-10 can also be used from 0.25–5 ppm using two pump strokes or from 1–20 ppm using a half pump stroke with the appropriate correction factor.

Cross-Sensitivity

The N10-132-10 may respond to other amines and bases. Documented cross-sensitivities include ammonia, methylamine, ethylamine, allylamine, diethylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, methylaziridine, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine and pyridine. Refer to the NAGCO datasheet for correction factors and complete interference information.

Pump Information

NAGCO recommends using NAGCO detector tubes with NAGCO sampling pumps. CPS Calibrations can assist customers transitioning from another detector tube system with selecting the appropriate NAGCO tube and sampling equipment for their application.

Important: Detector tube readings may be affected by temperature and interfering compounds. Always follow the NAGCO datasheet and pump operating instructions for the specific measurement being performed.
