[labnetwork] Testing toxic gas sensors

[Morrison, Richard H., Jr.]

HI,

You need to get standard gas samples that you can introduce to the sensor input and verify that the sensor trips. At Draper we hire a company that comes in and calibrates the system every 3 months. I believe that every 3 months is a good calibration cycle to ensure that critical systems are working.

Dear Colleagues:

  We have  sensors for toxic gases like diborane, germane and phosphine in our gas cabinets and deposition systems. We were wondering how to test whether these are still working. Is there any proxy gases available which can used.

Thanks and regards,

Savitha
