Gastec Gas Detection System

Al Ghwasa is the factory authorized distributor for GASTEC products in the Middle East for more than a decade. With excellent pricing and prompt response, our reputation in the industry makes us reliable and trustworthy in the region.

Gastec standard detector tubes are thin glass tubes with calibration scales printed on them.

The GASTEC standard detector tube system consists of the GV-100S pump and GV-110S gas detection tubes. The gas detection tubes method permits a simple, quick, and economical analysis at the working site. The tubes are also very easy to store because of their long shelf life of nearly 3 years.

Operators can read concentrations of the substances they measure directly. They can also analyze a wide range of gases and vapors accurately, quickly, and easily. Processors break off both ends and connect the tube to the Model GV-100S/110S Gas Sampling Pump to activate it.

Why use Gastec?

On the spot measurement and identification of gas and their levels.

No need for electricity or battery for the operation of the equipment.

Results are obtained with minimal number of pump strokes.

Gastec Tube demarcation is highly visible and can be easily viewed.

The tubes are pre-calibrated from the factory, hence avoiding the need for any calibration on site.

The pump is easy to use and easy to maintain.

Measurement Procedures

Only three steps for measurement:
