PORTACAL® Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) Calibration Gas is designed for the calibration, bump testing, and verification of compatible hydrogen cyanide gas detectors, HCN sensors, and monitoring instruments.

Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is a colorless, highly toxic, and flammable gas that may be encountered in a variety of industrial and manufacturing environments. HCN is commonly associated with chemical manufacturing, mining and metal processing, plastics and synthetic fiber production, laboratories, and other industrial processes where reliable hydrogen cyanide monitoring may be required.

PORTACAL® Hydrogen Cyanide Calibration Gas provides a known concentration of hydrogen cyanide to help verify that compatible HCN sensors, portable gas detectors, fixed gas detection systems, and industrial gas monitoring instruments are functioning and responding properly.
