hydrocarbons and hydrogen. Temperature range –65°F to
+200°F (-55°C to +93°C).
10001-1R
Same as Part Number 10001-1, except greatly improved
resistance to poisons, such as HMDS
(Hexamethyldisiloxane) and H
2
S (Hydrogen Sulfide).
10014-1
High Temperature Standard Industrial Combustible Gas
Sensor. Same as Part Number 10001-1, except sensor body
is stainless steel.
10058-1
Same as Part Number 10001-1, except sensor body is
stainless steel.
10058-1R
Same as Part Number 10058-1, except greatly improved
resistance to poisons, such as HMDS
(Hexamethyldisiloxane) and H
2
S (Hydrogen Sulfide).
10022-1
Similar to Part Number 10001-1, except PTB approved.
10059-1
Same as Part Number 10022-1, except body is constructed
of stainless steel.
10015-1
High Temperature equivalent of Part Number 10022-1. It may
be used in temperatures up to 400°F (200°C).
