Gas detector tubes are one of the most popular measurement methods for gas analysis. This versatile system can be used within industry,  fire service HAZMAT teams, hazardous material control in laboratories, for environmental research and numerous other applications.

For gas detecting applications in which single or less regular measurements are sufficient, Gastec detector tubes are particularly advantageous compared to electronic detection devices, as they are cheaper and easier to operate. The number of gases/vapours that can be detected is also far higher than other gas detection instruments with direct display.
