FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Information on Our New Ethylene Oxide Detector Tube
A new detector tube for monitoring for airborne levels of ethylene oxide has the lowest range we have ever offered. Tube 122SD has a printed scale of 0.1 to 2 ppm at four pump strokes, and can monitor up to 14 ppm at one stroke. The color change is from yellow to pink with a shelf life of one year from date of manufacture.
Ethylene oxide is used as a sterilant, fumigant and fungicide. It is widely used in hospitals to sterilize instruments and in the packaging of medical products. It is also used in the production of other chemicals including ethylene glycol, acrylonitrile and ethanolamine. It is irritating to eyes and skin, and it is highly flammable. In sterilizer applications ethylene oxide is usually mixed with an inert gas to reduce the flammability hazard. The ACGIH lists ethylene oxide as a suspected carcinogen and sets the TLV at a 1 ppm TWA.
