Cross-sensitivity (handbook, p. 191): The information regarding the cross-sensitivity only applies for measurements with a maximum of 1 stroke. Hydrocarbons and hydrocarbons with olefin double bonds are indicated with a different discoloration and sensitivity. The following have no effect on the reading of 0.1 Vol% propane/butane: < 99.9 Vol% methane < 5 Vol% ethane < 1 Vol% carbon monoxide < 500 ppm acetylene, ethylene
Note (handbook, p. 191): A maximum of 15 strokes within 1 hour can be performed for leak- age measurements (qualitative measurements). However, the infor- mation regarding the cross-sensitivity only applies for measurements with a maximum of 1 stroke!
