Calibration gas is typically delivered in high-pressure cylinders or disposable canisters, ensuring precise mixtures for accurate calibration of gas detection instruments. High-pressure cylinders are made of steel or aluminum and come in various sizes, while disposable canisters are lightweight and portable, ideal for field use.

Transport involves using specialized racks or carts for cylinders, and protective packaging for canisters. Proper storage in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas is essential, along with adhering to safety protocols and monitoring expiration dates to maintain gas integrity. Regular equipment checks ensure safe and reliable operation of the calibration gas delivery system.
