Replacement MX6 Sensor for Phosphine High (PH3). Range 0 to 1,000ppm, Resolution 1ppm.
£642.00
Phosphine (PH3) is a colourless, highly toxic, flammable gas with a distinctive odour that is often described as resembling garlic or rotting fish. It is an extremely dangerous gas due to its toxicity, even at very low concentrations.
Key Properties:

At the Phosphine levels this sensor is designed for detecting, any individuals using this for personal protection must be wearing respirator equipment. Levels over 50ppm would overcome anyone in minutes. Even levels below the resolution would be over any permissible exposure limits for an individual

The table above reflects the percentage response provided by the sensor (top row) when exposed to a known concentration of the target gas (column 1).
The numbers were measured under these environmental conditions: 20 °C (68 °F), 50% RH and 1 atm.
The specified cross-interference numbers apply to new sensors only and may vary with time as well as from sensor to sensor.
“-” means no data available.
