INTRODUCTION

www.honeywellanalytics.com
This handbook describes the use and performance of gas detection
tubes and sampling pumps manufactured by Honeywell. Honeywell began
manufacturing gas detection tubes in 1997 and is adding many new tubes
to its product line each year. Modern production facilities and techniques
allow us to offer high-quality tubes at a highly competitive price.
Gas detection tubes operate in the following manner: An air sample
is drawn through a tube containing a reagent, causing a color change.
The concentration is then read from the length of the color stain in the
reagent. The advantages of detection tubes over other analytical methods
are simplicity of use, rapid response, low cost, and very low maintenance.
Because each batch of Honeywell tubes is pre-calibrated, no calibration
equipment is necessary. Errors are prevented by directly marking the
calibration information on each tube, and accuracy is further ensured by
controlling the volume of air sampled. Honeywell tubes are primarily of
the narrow bore type and are designed for use with a Honeywell hand-
operated piston pump.
Air sampling can also be performed using piston pumps, which latch
into a precisely dened position to x the volume. These pumps pull a
strong vacuum initially and thus create substantially higher owrate than
the bellows pumps. Piston pumps generate a high ow initially followed
by an approximately exponential decay, whereas bellows pumps provide a
more steady ow initially followed by the slow decay. The difference in ow
patterns means that the pumps cannot be interchanged between types.
For example, piston pumps sometime cause a smearing of the color stain
when used on tubes originally developed for bellows pumps. This occurs
because the higher ow rates do not allow enough contact time to give
sharp endpoints when a piston pump is used.
For a period of time, attempts were made to improve accuracy by
stabilizing the ow rate using rate-limiting orices. Some manufacturers
supplied as many as four different orice sizes to match the particular
tube being used. However, exchanging limiting orices proved to be
cumbersome and unnecessary as long as enough contact time was allowed
to avoid smearing the stain. Therefore, limiting orices have fallen out of
use and it has now become standard practice to build the ow restriction
into the tube itself. This is done by selecting the particle size of the support
material and type of end plug that give a sampling time appropriate for the
particular chemical reaction of the tube.
1. INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
4www.honeywellanalytics.com
As a result of these developments, modern tube/pump systems have
stabilized into two categories: (1) low-vacuum bellows pumps with less
ow resistance in the tubes, by virtue of being wider (~7 mm o.d.) and
having larger particles, and (2) high-vacuum piston pumps with greater
resistance in the tubes by being narrower (~5 mm) and having smaller
particles. The bellows pump/tube systems tend to have faster sampling
but require more pump strokes to complete a measurement, whereas the
piston pump systems generally need fewer strokes but longer sampling
time per stroke. Honeywell tubes are primarily of the narrow-bore type and
are designed for use with a piston sampling pump.
QUALITY ASSURANCE

www.honeywellanalytics.com
2. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROCEDURES FOR
GAS DETECTION TUBE MANUFACTURE
All Honeywell gas detection tubes are developed in an ISO 9001 certied
facility and manufactured in an ISO 9001 certied factory. All procedures,
work instructions, and quality records are documented and maintained to
ensure tube quality. The procedures are outlined below.
A. Tube Selection. Glass tubing is selected to t a standard bore size to
ensure uniform length of color change.
B. Support Preparation. Silica, alumina, and other support materials
are chosen from the highest quality available and sieved to yield a
narrow particle size distribution. The supports are then further puried
as necessary and dried to well-dened levels depending on the
requirements of the tube reactions.
C. Reagent Loading. Chemicals are chosen according to strict purity
standards and loaded onto the support materials. Deposition of the
chemicals onto the support follows a protocol developed specically
for each tube type. The loaded support material is then dried as
needed for the reaction.
D. Tube Filling and Sealing. End plugs are selected of materials that
do not react with the reagent. The tubes are lled under conditions
that minimize exposure to air, water vapor, or other gases that may
affect the quality of the tubes. The tubes are then packed tightly by
a combination of shaking and physical compression. The ends of the
tubes are then melted closed using an automated ame sealer. Any
necessary inert atmosphere is maintained through the tube-sealing
process.
E. Calibration. Each batch of tubes is calibrated independently of other
batches. A series of standard gases are purchased or prepared by a
variety of methods, including ow dilution of gas primary standards,
permeation tubes, and diffusion tubes, or static dilution from liquid or
gas primary standards. Multiple tubes are used to determine each
calibration position, and these are then printed onto each tube in the
batch with an automated printing machine.
OPERATION
6www.honeywellanalytics.com
F. Packaging. The tubes and their technical data sheets are packed
into labeled boxes with protective corrugated cardboard.
G. Quality Control Sampling Plan. A portion of each batch is sent to
the Honeywell's Quality Assurance Laboratory for independent QA
testing. The most widely used tubes pass the accuracy criterion of
≤±15% of length of stain. A separate set of tubes is stored in the QA
laboratory and the manufacturing facility for evaluation at later dates,
if necessary.
H. Accuracy and Precision. The accuracy is measured by testing
at least ve tubes and calculating the average deviation from the
standard gas value. The precision is calculated as the standard
deviation from the average value of the ve measurements. All tubes
meet the accuracy and precision criteria listed in Table 2-1:

3. OPERATION OF DETECTION TUBES & PUMPS
CAUTION:
Wear safety glasses and gloves when opening tubes
or handling open tubes with sharp edges. Failure to
wear protective equipment may lead to cuts and other
severe injuries to eyes and hands.
Always test the pump for leaks immediately before
using it for a series of measurements. Failure to
test the pump for leakage may lead to dangerously
inaccurate readings.
Avoid contact with tube contents in case of accidental
breakage. Exposure to tube contents can result in
signicant health hazards.
Dispose of spent tubes according to local regulations.
Review the reaction principle and other information
listed in the Gas Detection Tube Data Sheet supplied
to identify materials that may require special disposal
procedures. (Data Sheets for all currently available
Honeywell tubes are included in Chapter 5.)

3.1 Hand Pump Description
Figure 3-1. LP-1200 Hand Pump with tube inserted.
The LP-1200 is a piston-type hand pump that draws a xed volume of
gas, selectable at either 50 mL or 100 mL by rotating the handle. A tight
vacuum seal is formed by a greased plunger gasket. The tapered rubber
inlet accommodates a range of tube diameters for different types of tubes.
The inlet lter prevents glass pieces and dust from entering the shaft. An
end-of-ow indicator in the handle turns white when the gas sampling is
complete. A pump stroke counter is rotated to keep track of the number
of strokes completed.
3.2 Tube Measurements
3.2.1 Tube Description & Packaging

Top: Standard single tube. Bottom: Pretreatment tube
connected to measurement tube with rubber connector.
1. Tube and Box. Figure 3-2 shows the key components of a Honeywell
gas detection tube. The tubes are typically packaged in a box of 10
tubes. Each box has quick instructions on the back. Some tubes
require preconditioning of the gas and are packaged with 5 pretreatment
tubes and 5 measurement tubes for a total of 5 measurements. The
concentration scale is printed on the tube and an arrow indicates the
direction in which the gas must enter. The standard number of 100 mL

strokes is indicated on one side, along with the total sample volume, the
unit of measure, the gas type, and the batch number.
2. Data Sheet. Each box is packaged with a Data Sheet that provides
detailed information on the tube performance. Figure 3-3 is an excerpt
of a typical data sheet. Complete data sheets are provided in Chapter
5 and discussed in detail in Chapters 4.2 and 4.3.

3. Part Number. The 7-digit part number is indicated on the top right of
the data sheet. The second 3 digits indicate the tube chemical type,
and the last two digits number indicate the approximate range of the
tube. The higher the number, the higher the range.
4. Sampling Volume and Time. Using the standard number of pump
strokes, the concentration of the gas is read from stain length directly
matched to the printed scale after the listed sampling time has elapsed.
However, the range of the tube may be extended by using a smaller
or larger sample volume. In such cases, the scale reading must be
multiplied by a Correction Factor (CF) to adjust for the different sample
size. For example, the Honeywell H-10-103-18 hydrogen sulde tube
has a standard range of 25-250 ppm. When used with the standard
one stroke, the readings will correspond directly to the printed scale
on the tube. When used with half a stroke, a Correction Factor (CF)
of 2 is applied. An observed reading of 50 ppm then corresponds to
an actual concentration of:
50 x 2 = 100 ppm
OPERATION
10 www.honeywellanalytics.com
5. Cross-sensitivity. Gas detection tubes are generally quite selective,
but some compounds may interfere in the measurements. The Data
Sheet lists possible interfering compounds; others may also exist. In
most cases these compounds increase the stain length, but in some
cases they decrease the stain length. The user must be aware of
potential interferences, or incorrect readings may result.
3.2.2 Testing Hand Pump For Leaks
Before a series of measurements, the pump used must be tested for leaks.
Follow this procedure:
1. Insert an unopened tube snugly into the inlet of the aspirating pump.
2. Align the red dot on the plunger with the red dot on the pump shaft.
3. Pull the plunger one full stroke and wait 2 minutes.
4. Rotate the plunger dot away from the pump shaft alignment mark,
and allow the plunger to be drawn back into the pump shaft. Keep
your hand on the shaft to keep it from snapping back too suddenly.
There are no leaks if the plunger returns to within 3 mm of its original
position. If a leak is detected, refer to Section 3.3 for maintenance
procedures.
3.2.3 Measurement Procedure
1.
Break both ends of a new detection tube using the tip breaker on the
side of the pump. Insert the tube until it stops, and then back off about 1
mm before breaking off the tip. The latter procedure allows the tip to fall
into the tip reservoir at the end of the pump shaft. The reservoir can be
emptied by opening the rubber cover on the opposite side of the pump.
Break tube open at both ends.
OPERATION
11

2. In cases where a pre-tube is provided (e.g., Benzene H-10-101-01
and NOx H-10-109-20), connect the pre-tube to the measurement tube
using the rubber connector in the direction indicated on the tube.
3. Insert the measurement tube securely into the rubber pump inlet. Point
the tube arrow towards the pump (see Figs. 3-1 and 3-2).
Insert open tube with arrow pointing towards pump.
4. Select the sample volume desired and align the red dot on the plunger
with the red dot on the pump shaft. Pull the handle quickly until it
latches at ½ or 1 full stroke (50 or 100 mL) and wait for the sampling
time indicated on the data sheet to allow the air to be drawn through
the tube. The end-of-ow indicator is dark during sampling. Flow is
complete when the end-of-ow indicator returns to its white color.
Withdraw plunger sharply until it locks in place, and rotate stroke counter.
Wait for indicated sampling time when end-of-ow indicator turns white.
End-of-ow indicator is dark when sampling (left) and white when
sampling is complete (right).
OPERATION
12 www.honeywellanalytics.com
5. For additional pump strokes, rotate the handle ¼ turn clockwise or
counterclockwise and push it back fully without removing the tube from
the pump. Then repeat Step 4.
If additional strokes are needed, rotate plunger 90 degrees.
Push plunger back into pump shaft without removing tube.
Withdraw plunger for second stroke and repeat strokes as necessary.
Remove and read tube; return plunger and stroke counter to original position;
empty tube tip reservoir as necessary.
OPERATION
13
www.honeywellanalytics.com
3.2.4 Reading Tubes
1. The concentration of the compound being measured is read directly
from the scale printed on the tube.
2. The reading is taken as the furthest distance along the tube that the
color change just becomes visible. If the leading edge is diagonal
instead of perpendicular to the axis of the tube, use the average of the
minimum and maximum values. The three tubes shown in Figure 3-4
are all read as 0.9.
Figure 3-4. Reading of various types of endpoints after sampling.
3. Read the tube immediately after gas sampling, as colors may change,
fade, or disperse with time.
4. If a non-standard number of pump strokes was used for sampling,
multiply the reading by the Correction Factor given on the tube Data
Sheet (Chapter 5).
5. If humidity and temperature corrections are necessary as indicated on
the Data Sheets, multiply the observed readings by the given Correction
Factor(s) (CF) to obtain the true concentration. For more details and a
theoretical discussion, see Chapter 4.3 on the effects of humidity and
temperature.
6. The user must be aware of potential interfering compounds in the tube
measurements. Interferences can be either positive or negative.
CAUTION: Always examine the data sheet and other
available information for possible interferences. Failure to
consider interferences may lead to dangerously inaccurate
readings.
OPERATION

3.3 Maintenance of the LP-1200 Piston Hand Pump
Figure 3-5. Transparent view of LP-1200 pump
showing internal parts.
1. Tube Tip Reservoir
Remove the tube tip reservoir cover as needed to empty the broken
glass reservoir that is in the pump end tting.
2. Pump Inlet and Filter
The rubber pump inlet can become worn with use and result in leaks.
Unscrew the pump inlet nut and replace the rubber inlet. If the inlet
is not replaced, inspect the inlet lter and replace or clean the lter
when it becomes visibly dirty or if the end-of-ow indicator on the pump
shows that the ow takes longer than recommended on the tube box.
3. Pump Mechanism
The plunger gasket may leak if it is worn or not well lubricated. To
replace the gasket:
1. Unscrew the pump end tting on the handle side.
2. Pull the plunger out of the pump shaft.
3. Replace the gasket.
4. Carefully push the plunger back into the shaft. Use a ne
screwdriver or tweezers to help ease the gasket into the shaft.
5. Lubricate the inside of the shaft with vacuum grease to ensure
a good seal.
Caution: Do not overtighten the plunger gasket. It could cause
a sudden loss of vacuum.
The inlet check valve may cause leaks if worn or not lubricated.
Unscrew the end tting on the inlet side and pull out the disk-shaped
rubber-inlet check valve. Replace as necessary, adding a light coat of
grease around the hole.
OPERATION
15
www.honeywellanalytics.com
Replace the outlet check valve gasket if there is resistance on the
return stroke. Using the special tool or needle-nose pliers, unscrew
the plunger tip from the plunger rod. Replace the O-ring, check valve
gasket as necessary, and reassemble. Inspect the gasket ring in the
inlet end tting. If it is damaged, replace before screwing the end tting
back on.
3.4 Selection Of Sampling Pump
Honeywell tubes are designed for operation with a Honeywell hand pump
for drawing samples through Honeywell tubes. Pumps from different
manufacturers may have different ow patterns or deliver different volumes,
which can cause signicant errors. For example, bellows hand pumps as
supplied by MSA and Draeger have substantially different ow patterns.
Caution: Use of a sampling pump other than a Honeywell
hand pump may cause serious errors. Always test any pump
for leaks before use.
3.5 Operation And Maintenance Of Remote Sampler
The Detection Tube Remote Sampler is designed for use with Honeywell hand
pumps for gas-detection tubes and adsorption tubes. The exible Remote
Sampler allows gases to be sampled through narrow apertures, down holes,
or from other areas remotely located from the sampling pump. The sampler
is available in two lengths, 15 feet (4.5 meters), p/n H-010-3009-015, and 35
feet (11 meters), p/n H-010-3009-035.
1. Installation
Refer to Figure 3.7 for installation and part descriptions. Unscrew
the pump adapter nut and remove the standard rubber tube adapter
from the pump. Inspect the remote sampler to ensure that the porous
metal lter is in place, and screw the pump adapter nut attached to the
sampler into the pump. Store the standard nut and rubber adapter in a
safe place for later use.
OPERATION
16 www.honeywellanalytics.com
2. Operation
To ensure a good seal, insert the gas detection tube into the tube
holder and twist the tube while pushing in. If the tube uses a pre-tube,
insert the pre-tube into the pre-tube holder and push the pre-tube into
the end of the standard tube holder. Secure the pre-tube holder using
the rubber buckles. Lower the extension hose to the desired position.
Figure 3-6. Installation of the remote sampling probe into
the LP-1200 hand pump.
3. Correction
Caution: In order to obtain accurate readings, the following
corrective procedures must be employed when using the 35-foot
(11-meter) remote sampler.
The 35-foot (11-meter) remote sampler causes a slight delay and
reduced reading because of the extra volume in the extension
tubing. Increase the sample time by 30 seconds for a 2-minute tube,
20 seconds for a 1.5-minute tube, and by 15 seconds for a 1-minute
tube. Then multiply the reading by 1.08 to obtain the corrected value.
Corrections for the 15-foot (4.5-meter) remote sampler are unnecessary.
OPERATION

4. Routine Maintenance
a. Porous Metal Filter: The metal frit lter should be replaced when it
becomes visibly dirty or if the end-of-ow indicator on the pump shows
that the ow takes longer than recommended on the tube box.
b. Leak Test: If a leak is discovered with either pump, rst remove the
probe and check the pump for leaks. Then examine the tubing and
connections for the leak source, as follows:
i. Hand Pump: Insert a sealed tube into the tube holder tightly. Pull
3 pump strokes to expel the air from inside the tubing. Pull a
fourth stroke and wait for 2 minutes. Rotate the plunger dot away
from the pump shaft alignment mark, and allow for the plunger
to be drawn back into the pump shaft. Keep your hand on the
shaft to prevent it from springing back too suddenly. If the plunger
returns to within 3 mm of its original position, there are no leaks.

4. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
4.1 Gas Detection Tube Theory Of Operation
Gas detection tubes operate on a chemical reaction between the vapor-
phase compound and a liquid or solid detecting reagent, which is supported
on an inert matrix. The most common types of reactions are the following:
• Acid-base reactions These include reactions of acidic gases like HCl
and HF with bases, and reaction of alkaline vapors such as ammonia
with an acid in the tube. A dye present in the tube changes color as
the pH changes on exposure to the vapors.
• Reduction-oxidation (Red-ox) reactions These generate an oxidized
or reduced compound, which has a different color. The chlorine tube
uses oxidative coupling of colorless o-toluidine to form an orange azo-
dye. White di-iodine pentoxide is reduced by CO and many organic
vapors to form deep brown-colored iodine. Orange chromium (VI) is
reduced by many organic compounds to form brown or green-colored
Cr(III) compounds.
• Ligand-exchange reactions These generate new complexes that
are more colored than the starting reagents. The most notable is the
conversion of white lead acetate to brown-black lead sulde in the
detection of H2S. In the case of phosphine, the exchange of PH3 for
the chlorine ligand of HgCl2 releases HCl, which then causes a pH-
dependent dye-color change.
•
Pre-layers or Pre-tubes These are used to condition the sample
by controlling humidity, removing interferences, or transforming the
analyte to another detectable compound. Examples include drying
agents in NH3 and HCl tubes, organic removal by charcoal or oxidation
in selective CO tubes, and oxidation of NO to NO2 in the nitrogen oxides
tube.
All Honeywell detection tubes are length-of-stain types. In these tubes,
the reaction of the gas with the supported reagent is fast, compared to
the transport of the bulk air sample through the tube. Therefore, all of
the detected vapors are reacted within the tube. As a result, there is
not a strong dependence of the readings on the rate at which the gas is
sampled. However, a very high ow rate can cause some smearing to a
high reading. Conversely, low ow rates are less likely to affect the stain
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
20 www.honeywellanalytics.com
length, but can give low readings by concentrating the colored products in
a shorter section of the tube. In cases of ow extremes, errors outside the
standard 25% accuracy can be produced.
Honeywell tubes are calibrated using Honeywell piston hand pumps. The
ow during a single pump stroke initially rises sharply and then decays
exponentially (see Figure 4-1). The best accuracy is therefore obtained
when the ow through the tube mimics this prole.
Figure 4-1. Piston pump internal pressure pattern. Data is offset
by 2 seconds.
4.2 Explanation Of Data Sheets
The Data Sheets supplied with each box of tubes give representative
information applying to all batches. The Data Sheets include:
1. Standard and extended measurement ranges, pump strokes
required, gas volumes required, sampling times, and the detection
limit. The standard range and strokes apply to the calibration scale
printed on the tubes. The range can usually be extended to higher
or lower concentrations by reducing or increasing, respectively, the
number of pump strokes.
2. Correction Factors (CF) for conditions of pump stroke, temperature,
humidity, or gas type other than the standard conditions. The
CF is multiplied by the observed reading to obtain the corrected
concentration.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
21
www.honeywellanalytics.com
3. Precision. This value is determined by measuring a standard gas
sample with at least 5 randomly chosen tubes. Precision is reported
as the standard deviation from the average of the 5 measurements.
Precision is typically ≤±15%. (See Section 2 for complete table.)
4. Linearity with number of pump strokes. Multiple strokes are measured
with a gas standard with concentration at the low end of the tube.
Tubes must have correlation coefcients (r2) >0.95 to be considered
linear.
5.
Humidity. The effect on the reading as a function of humidity of the
standard gas is listed. Any required Correction Factors are tabulated.
6. Temperature. The effect of temperature is determined by equilibrating
the gas sample, tube, and pump to the test temperatures, typically 0°,
10°, 25°, and 40°C (32°, 50°, 77°, and 104°F). Any required Correction
Factors are tabulated. If humidity has a measurable effect on the gas
readings, the temperature tests are performed at constant relative
humidity (not absolute humidity). Any temperature corrections should
be multiplied by any humidity corrections to obtain true readings.
7. Storage Life. Samples of tubes are stored for extended periods to
evaluate their accuracy at dened time periods to determine their
storage life. The user should store tubes in darkness at 3° to 7°C (37°
to 45°F) to maximize their shelf life. Freezing tubes (storage below
0°C, or 32°F) can damage some types and is not recommended.
8. Cross-Sensitivity. Tubes are challenged with a variety of possible
interfering gases to quantitate their relative response. Although the
tubes are highly selective, compounds that are chemically similar to
a target compound sometimes show a positive interference. Others
interfere with the measurement gas without showing a response
on their own; for example, when acidic vapors coexist with basic
vapors. Such information is listed in a separate note or column titled
“Interferes in Mixtures.” The user should know as much about the
sample environment as possible in order to make sound judgments
regarding possible interferences; otherwise inaccurate readings may
result. In some cases, a different color or pattern of the stain can clue
the user to the presence of an interfering compound.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
22 www.honeywellanalytics.com
4.3 Humidity, Temperature, Pressure, and Matrix Effects
1. Humidity
Humidity has little effect on most tubes either because the reaction is
insensitive to moisture or because drying agents are added to absorb
the moisture in a pre-layer (see Figure 4-2). Humidity tends to have
the greatest effect on compounds that are highly water-soluble, such
as acids and bases. HF (hydrouoric acid) is a notable example that
requires humidity corrections; water-adsorbing prelayers cannot be
used because they tend to be reactive with HF. The humidity effect
tends to be greater as the concentration range of the tube is lowered.
When correcting for humidity, the CF is multiplied by the reading in
addition to multiplying by any temperature correction. Any necessary
Correction Factors are listed in the individual tube data sheets. Note
that the relative humidity at the measurement temperature denes the
correction, rather than the absolute humidity.
Figure 4-2. Effect of humidity on gas detection tube readings.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
23
www.honeywellanalytics.com
2. Temperature
Temperature can affect gas tube readings in at least three ways. First,
as the temperature increases, the gas density decreases, causing a
tendency for the reading to decrease (see pressure effects described in
the next section). Second, as the temperature increases, the reaction
rate increases, causing the reading to be sharper and shorter. A third,
balancing effect is that adsorption is often a prerequisite for reaction.
Adsorption is weaker as temperature increases, and thus the reading
can become longer. The interplay of these competing effects results in
some stains that are longer with increasing temperature, and others
that are shorter.
Figure 4-3. Effect of temperature on gas detection tube readings.
Additional factors occur in special cases. For example, pretube or prelayer
reactions are sometimes more complete at higher temperatures,
causing higher readings in the measurement layer. In some cases, the
color of the stain can change. In the water vapor H-10-120-20 tube,
the color stain is green at room temperature and a more purple color
below room temperature.

3. Pressure
Tubes change color in proportion to the mass of the compounds
reaching the reagent (i.e, the absolute concentration). Therefore, as
the pressure decreases at higher altitudes, the apparent response is
reduced because there are fewer molecules per unit volume sampled.
The conventional desired reading is in ppmv (parts per million by
volume), which is a relative concentration, such as a mole or volume
fraction (% of molecules of compound per molecules of total gas [air]),
rather than an absolute concentration.
All Honeywell tubes are calibrated at 1 atmosphere (760 mm Hg)
pressure at sea level.
• For tubes calibrated in absolute concentrations such as lbs./MMCF or
mg/m3, no pressure corrections are needed.
• For tubes calibrated in relative concentrations (e.g., ppm), correct for
pressure using one of the following equations:
Corrected reading = Observed Reading x 760 mm Hg
Pressure (mm Hg)
Corrected reading = Observed Reading x 101.3 kPa
Pressure (kPa)
Corrected reading = Observed Reading x 14.7 psia
Pressure (psia)
The pressure in mm Hg can be estimated as a function of altitude using
the following equation:
P (mm Hg) = 760exp(-0.1286[alt(km)]) below 2 km
Example Correction Factors are listed in the following table as a
function of altitude. Weather changes may also affect the atmospheric
pressure, but the necessary corrections are usually <10%.

4. Matrix Gas
The matrix gas usually has little or no effect on the tube readings as long
as the gas does not chemically react with the tube reagents or measured
compound. Thus, readings in air, nitrogen, hydrogen, helium, or carbon
dioxide give essentially the same results. However, the viscosity of the
gas has a signicant effect on the sampling time. Thus, for example, the
sampling time of the CO H-10-102-18 tube is about half as long in pure
hydrogen (viscosity 9.0 μPa-s) as it is in air (viscosity 18.6 μPa-s).

Oxygen 20.8 1.12 101
Argon 22.9 1.23 111
Neon 32.1 1.73 155
At a given viscosity, higher ow rates tend to give longer stains. However,
this is often compensated by higher diffusion rates to the reactive surface
in the less viscous gases, resulting in no signicant effect on the readings.

Technical Note
Effect of Methanol & Glycols on Water Vapor Tubes
Introduction
Colorimetric tubes for water vapor are commonly used to measure the humidity of
natural gas because of their rapid response compared to instrumental methods.
To minimize corrosion and to obtain a better selling price for the gas, water vapor
levels are often reduced by passing the gas through a liquid scrubber containing
ethylene glycol or triethylene glycol. In addition, methanol is sometimes added to
the natural gas pipeline as an antifreeze so that ice does not accumulate during
cold weather. This technical note describes how to read water vapor tubes that
may have interference from these chemicals.
Resistance to Glycol Response and “Rich” Gas
Newer versions of Honeywell water vapor tubes have been improved to remove
any response to ethylene glycol or triethylene glycol. These changes were
implemented in the 6-40 lbs/MMCF tubes (p/n H-10-120-20) shipped after
November 2003 and in the 2-10 lbs/MMCF tubes (p/n H-10-120-10) shipped after
November 2004. Higher alkanes such as pentane, hexanes and octanes present
in "rich" natural gas also cause no response.
Effect of Methanol
Methanol alone causes a light green response in both H-10-120-10 and H-10-120-20
tubes when its concentration is above about 80 ppm. When water and methanol
are present together, a two-tone stain is seen. On the H-10-120-10 (2-10 lbs/MMCF)
tubes, the water forms a medium-dark green stain followed by a light green stain
for methanol (see Figure 1).
Figure 1. Methanol response on H-10-120-10 (2-10 lbs/MMCF) tube.
H2O: 0 Methanol: 60 ppm
H2O: 6 lbs/MMCF Methanol: 60 ppm
H2O: 0 Methanol: 100 ppm
H2O: 8 lbs/MMCF Methanol: 100 ppm
DATA SHEETS

www.honeywellanalytics.com
On the H-10-120-20 (6-40 lbs/MMCF) tubes, the water forms a purple stain followed
by a light green stain for methanol (see Figure 2). This light green color can be
ignored and only the darker stain read to obtain the water vapor concentration.
Figure 2. Methanol response on H-10-120-20 (6-40 lbs/MMCF) tube.
Figure 3. Effect of Temperature on H-10-120-20 tube.
Figure 3 shows that the color stain for water vapor is greener at higher temperatures
and tends towards purple as the temperature is lowered. Therefore the distinction
between methanol and water vapor response is clearer at lower temperatures.

6. SPECIALTY TUBES
6.1 Smoke Generating Tubes
Smoke generating tubes are designed for use in respirator t tests. These
tubes are of the stannic chloride type required by OSHA for use in the
irritant smoke t test procedure. The tubes can also be used for visualizing
air currents, such as in testing the performance of fume hoods or in
detecting leaks from an air duct.
1. Operation
Smoke tubes are operated by simply breaking open each end and inserting
into a rubber squeeze bulb or other pump. Air pushed through the tube
releases the stannic chloride, which decomposes on contact with moisture
in the air to form a smoke. The tubes can be re-used until no more smoke
is evolved. Rubber caps are provided to seal the tubes between uses.
2. Smoke Tube Kit
The Smoke Tube Kit (Part no. H-010-0004-000) contains the following:
• Aspirator bulb
• Tube tip breaker
• 1 Box of 6 smoke tubes
• Soft carrying case
Figure 6.1. Use of smoke tube for visualizing fume hood air
currents.
SPECIALTY TUBES
104 www.honeywellanalytics.com
Gas Generation Tube Data Sheet
Irritant Smoke No. H-10-123-01
Color: A white smoke is generated. The tube changes from a dark reddish brown to a
lighter reddish brown. The tube can be used repeatedly until it is spent. Keep the tube
closed between uses with the supplied rubber caps.
Reagent Type: Stannic chloride
Reaction Principle: SnCl4 + H2O → stannic oxychlorides + 2HCl
Humidity Range: 10 - 95% RH. The smoke generating life increases about 10% at 20% RH
and decreases about 10% at 80% RH (incoming air humidity).
Temperature Range: 0 - 40°C (32 - 104°F). As temperature decreases the smoke lasts
longer and is less intense.
Storage Life and Conditions: 2 years in darkness at 5 - 25°C (40 - 77°F)
CAUTIONS ON USE:
• Read, understand and comply with all labels, warnings and instructions accompanying
these tubes before use. Failure to comply may cause serious injury or death.
• For use in respirator t testing according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 (appendix A) and
OSHA 1910.139.
• Wear safety glasses and gloves to protect against chemical exposure and ying
glass. Wear a respirator when exposed to smoke. Vapors are corrosive to skin and
overexposure can result in serious injury or death.
• DO NOT inhale smoke directly. If inhaled enough to cause coughing, remove victim to
fresh air. If coughing persists, provide oxygen and contact a physician.
• Use only in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT use in a conned space.
• DO NOT use under a respirator t testing hood or other enclosed space because fume
concentrations may build up to levels that can cause serious injury or death.
• Avoid contact of smoke with skin. DO NOT direct smoke stream directly at the skin
during t testing. If smoke contacts skin for prolonged time, skin burns can result; ush
with copious amounts of water for 15 minutes and contact a physician.
• If smoke contacts eyes, immediately ush with water for 15 minutes and contact a
physician. Eyes should be kept tightly closed during t testing.
• Use only the pump(s) and ow rates specied in OSHA CFR 1910.134 and 29 CFR
1910.139. If the pump is operated at non-specied ow rates it could increase the smoke
and fume concentrations and cause serious injury or death.
• Do not use smoke tubes in areas that may contact food or food eating areas. Ingestion
of tube contents or fodd exposed to smoke may cause serious injury or death.
• Do not use for t testing on persons with pre-existing respiratory or related medical

7.7 Appendix 7. Limited Product Warranty
Honeywell warrants manual (hand-operated) pumps to be free of defects in
workmanship for the life of use by the original owner. All other consumable
items such as inlet lters, rubber inlets, plunger gaskets, which by their
nature are consumed or depleted during normal operation, are excluded
from this standard warranty.
Honeywell's obligation under this warranty is limited to replacing or
repairing, at Honeywell’s option, any defective or damaged part if returned
to a Honeywell authorized factory repair center, with shipping charges
prepaid by the buyer.
To maintain warranty, Purchaser must perform maintenance and calibration
as prescribed in the Operation and Maintenance manual. In the event of
a defect or damage, Purchaser will notify a Honeywell designated factory
repair center in advance and if trouble diagnosis procedures are unable
to determine and remedy the condition, a Return Material Authorization
(RMA) will be issued to assure proper repair and logistics tracking.
Honeywell neither assumes nor authorizes any other rm or person to
assume on Honeywell’s behalf any liability in any way connected with the
sale of Honeywell products.
Warranty does not extend to any equipment malfunction or damage that
results from alteration, theft, misuse, abuse, abnormal use, or improper or
unauthorized repairs.
