Draeger-Tubes
have
been leading the way in gas detection for over 60 years.
Over 200
different Draeger-Tubes
are available for measuring over 500 gases and vapors
No
calibration, no lubrication, no special maintenance.
Always ready to go.
What is the
Draeger-Tube System?
Draeger-Tubes®
are glass vials filled with a chemical reagent that
reacts to a specific chemical or family of chemicals.
A calibrated 100 ml sample of air is drawn through the
tube with the Draeger accuro bellows pump. If the
targeted chemical(s) is present the reagent in the tube
changes color and the length of the color change
typically indicates the measured concentration.
The Draeger-Tube System is the world's most popular form
of gas detection.
Draeger: Leading
Detection
Ever since
1937 when Draeger introduced their first detector tube,
Draeger has been the world leader in the analysis of
gases and vapors in the industrial workplace. Over the
years we have developed more tubes and detection devices
for more applications than anyone else! Our leading edge
technology has kept us on the forefront of colorimetric
detector tubes thus providing the most accurate and
specific results available.

Draeger has made gas detection easy. Unlike
a piston pump, the accuro®
pump requires no lubrication. The accuro®
is constructed of non-metallic, corrosion
resistant materials. It can't be bent by
rough treatment and it withstands harsh
chemical environments. Draeger-Tubes®
are pre-calibrated for two years. The only
requisite on Draeger-Tubes®
is that they are stored out of direct
sunlight and at a temperature of less than
25°C (77°F). Any
temperature-controlled office meets these
conditions.
Draeger-Tubes®
Accurate
Not all detector tubes are
created equal! Draeger-Tubes®
with the accuro pump deliver the most
accurate results. Many Draeger tubes offer a
+/- 10%standard deviation on the results.
This is a result of our 60+ years of
manufacturing colorimetric tubes and the
consistent volume delivered by the bellows
pump design.
Fast
One stroke tubes are not
always faster! Though many Draeger-Tubes®
require more than one stroke, they often
provide measurement results in less time.
Not only do you get the benefit of a quicker
analysis; the larger sample volume provides
better statistical accuracy
Specific
Reagents used in
Draeger-Tubes® are
chosen to provide not only the
most accurate, but also the most
specific results possible. Our
use of pre-layers on many tubes
(like benzene) remove other
potential interfering gases
(e.g.
aromatic hydrocarbons) so you
measure only the targeted
chemical, getting only the
results you want. This design
enables you to measure specific
gases in a complex ambient
background found in the
measurement area.
Easy to Read
See the difference for yourself! The
wider diameter of the Draeger-Tubes®
makes it easier to read. Well-spaced
graduation marks enable distinct and
decisive measurement results. Color changes
to the reagents are well defined over
the entire length of the stain. Many Tubes
offer a dual calibrated scale so that you
can interpret the results without using
multiplication factors.
Flexible
Draeger-Tubes®
simply deliver more! More gases and more
measuring ranges than any other
manufacturer. Draeger offers over 200
tubes for accurately measuring over 500
different gases. You can measure
ambient air for health and safety levels,
optional equipment allows you to measure
stack gases, motor vehicle exhaust
components, pressurized gas line samples,
compressed air contaminants, and solvents in
water samples. Other specialized tubes
measure over a period of hours or a complete
work shift to indicate daily exposure
levels.
Draeger-Tubes on Time
We can deliver to most locations in
continental North America within 24 hours.
