Gas Standards for Noble Gases

Gas Standards

Noble gas mixtures are stable and provide a repeatable reference concentration that can be used for regular calibrations.

Each noble gas standard contains accurately-weighed components.

Noble gas mixtures are available with the following components:

Noble Gas Standards

Gaseous Species

Matrix

Amount Fraction Range (mol/mol)

Argon / Neon / Krypton / Helium Oxygen 500×10-6  – 500×10-9
Argon / Neon / Krypton Nitrogen / Air 500×10-6  – 500×10-9

NPL's gas standards are certified for a period up to five years depending on the stability of the mixture. NPL offers a cost-effective re-certification service after the initial certification period has expired, ensuring temporal consistency of gas traceability.
