Amit Speciality Gasco :: Gas Cylinder Manifold

Gas Cylinder Manifold

Cylinder Manifold system is a high pressure structure which is specially fabricated for interconnecting two or more numbers of cylinders to a common gas supply line when consumption requirement is high. Manifold interconnects two or more number of cylinders for the purpose of availability of more gas at source which can be transmitted continuously. The Gas Manifold pressure can be reduced to the required pressure by a regulator. The pressure regulators can be conned to two manifolds for resulting in the changeover of manifolds. The changeover can be done manually or automatically by changing the gas supply from one set of cylinders to the other set without interrupting the continuity of the supply. Manifolds comprise a control panel, manifold racks, tailpipes and an isolation valve and a pressure relief valve. Super Gas can provide custom made gas specific manifolds for all types of applications required by the customers.

Highlights with automatic switch-over

Modular system
Modules mounted on a plate
Tested for strength, function and tightness before shipment
Equipped with all design-type tested safety devices required

Our gas manifolds systems with mechanical or pneumatic change-over unit are supplied with contact gauge and alarm device which optically and acoustically indicates the need to change the cylinder or the bundle once the manifold switched-over. The pneumatic change-over manifold is not available for Acetylene. The automatic manifold system with electrical switch-over unit is working with solenoid valves where the change-over pressure can be adjusted at the contact gauge.

Technical data gas manifold systems

Gas type: Acetylene, Oxygen and high-compressed, non-corrosive gases
Inlet pressure: Acetylene 25 bar, other gases up to 300 bar
Working pressure Acetylene: 0.6 to 1.5 bar (mechanical switch-over) or 0.6 to 1.35 bar (electrionic switch-over).
Other gases: mechanical and pneumatic change-over 10 or 20 bar (pre-set), electronic change-over adjustable from 2 to 16 bar
Flow rate: Acetylene 5 to 150 Nm3/h, Oxygen and high-compressed gases 60 to 320 Nm3/h
Number of cylinders: up to 2 x 6 cylinders
Bundles: Up to 2 x 12 bundles
Assembly: Mounting plate stainless steel or plastic coated steel. Optical and acoustic alarm. Design-type tested non-return valves with all cylinder- and bundle-connections.

The automatic gas supply stations for Acetylene meet the safety related requirements as per the standard DIN EN 14114. So they include an automatic quick-action shut-off valve downstream the regulator and a safety devices according to EN 730-1 (decomposition arrestor) at the outlet of the pressure regulator.

Apart from the single-sided gas supply stations and the gas manifolds with manual switch-over, We supplies systems with automatic change-over ensuring the continuous gas supply. These automatic switch-over manifolds are suitable for Oxygen, for the fuel gases Acetylene, Hydrogen, Ethene, natural gas as well as for Nitrogen, Helium, CO2 and gas mixtures which are common for shielding gas welding (MIG/MAG, WIG), for example Argon/Helium and Argon/CO2. Our gas manifold systems with automatic change-over unit are suitable for inlet pressures up to 25 bar Acetylene or 300 bar Oxygen and other technical gases, supplied from cylinders or bundles.
