Laboratory Argon Gas Cylinder — high-purity argon for analytical work
A laboratory argon gas cylinder from REAL GAZ delivers inert argon in 5.0 and 6.0 purity grades, filled for analytical instruments that cannot tolerate oxygen, moisture or hydrocarbon traces.
Every cylinder is purged, evacuated and filled on a dedicated line so that the purity on the label is the purity you receive at the regulator outlet.

REAL GAZ prepares argon for laboratories according to ISO 14175 gas classification, with analysis traceable under ISO 17025 practice, and cylinders built to ISO 9809 with EN ISO 11114 valve compatibility.
Argon is chemically inert and about 40 % denser than air, which is why it blankets samples so effectively. Typical laboratory cylinders hold 10, 20 or 50 litres at 200 bar, giving roughly 2, 4 or 10 cubic metres of gas. For long ICP runs we suggest a two-cylinder changeover manifold so that an empty bottle never interrupts a sequence. Stainless steel diaphragm regulators and clean tubing are recommended, because plastic lines can permeate oxygen and moisture. Please tell us your detector model and we will propose the purity grade that keeps costs reasonable without risking the baseline. Cylinders for argon carry a green-shouldered identification in many markets, and the contents are always printed on the label.
🏭 Where Laboratory Argon Cylinders Are Used
- ⚙️ ICP-OES and ICP-MS plasma — argon sustains the plasma torch and carries the sample aerosol, so low oxygen and water content keeps background signals stable;
- 🔬 Gas chromatography — used as a carrier or make-up gas for electron capture and thermal conductivity detectors where baseline noise must stay minimal;
- 🏥 Glovebox and Schlenk work — an inert blanket protects air-sensitive reagents, catalysts and organometallic samples during preparation and storage;
- 🚀 Thin-film and materials research — sputtering chambers and annealing furnaces use argon as the working gas for clean, repeatable deposition.
💡 Why Choose REAL GAZ
- ✅ Defined purity grades — 5.0 (99.999 %) and 6.0 (99.9999 %) are available, so you match the grade to the detector rather than overspending;
- 🧪 Low-moisture filling — cylinders are baked and evacuated before filling to keep water vapour at the ppm level;
- 🎯 Right-sized cylinders — from compact 10 litre bottles for bench use to 50 litre cylinders for continuous instrument supply;
- 🔒 Controlled valves — brass or stainless valves with suitable outlet connections avoid contamination from mismatched fittings;
- 📄 Certificate of Analysis (CoA) — supplied with every order.
🔬 Quality Control & Safety
- evacuation and purge cycles before every fill;
- purity verification by trace analysis;
- moisture and oxygen checks on the finished lot;
- valve leak testing and visual cylinder inspection.
Cylinders comply with ADR / UN transport rules and relevant EN/ISO standards.
