Cross Sensitivity
Vinyl chloride or carbon tetrachloride: < 2 ppm no indication. Methyl bromide cannot be measured in the presence of perchloroethylene or trichloroethylene. Sulfuryl fluoride, phosphine, ethylene oxide, ammonia, hydrocyanic acid, chloropicrin and formaldehyde below their AGW/TLV values are not indicated. Ethylene dibromide is indicated with 1.2 times its sensitivity.
