Calibration gases play a crucial role in a range of industries, including manufacturing, oil and gas, firefighting, environmental monitoring, and chemical processing, making calibration gas cylinders a crucial component in industrial and safety applications. To meet industry and customer needs, Luxfer Gas Cylinders, a division of Luxfer Holdings PLC (NYSE: LXFR), has announced the launch of a new portable cylinder for the storage and transportation of calibration gases.

Designed specifically for use by industrial gas producers and calibration gas suppliers, the A981/1/l cylinder has several unique features. These include service pressure of 70 bar for efficient storage and utilisation, and a weight of just 0.8kg, making it easy to handle, transport and use.
