2 kg carbon dioxide CO₂ - Food Grade - 3 l - steel - short
A steel carbon dioxide (CO₂) B03S cylinder (short model) is a robust, compact gas cylinder with a water capacity of approximately 3 liters, filled with 2 kg of liquid CO₂. Thanks to its shorter design, this cylinder is exceptionally well-suited for situations where installation space is limited, such as in compact beer dispensers, under-counter refrigerators, or mobile systems.
The cylinder is manufactured from high-quality steel, ensuring exceptional durability and robustness during intensive and professional use.
Key Features & Specifications:
Purity (Foodgrade):
Filled with food-grade carbon dioxide (designated with the e-code E290). Meets strict purity requirements (usually high purity) to prevent harmful odors, tastes, or contaminants from entering the product.
- Beverage Industry: Dispensing and carbonating beer, soft drinks, and cider.
- Sparkling Water: Producing sparkling water for both the hospitality industry and home systems (such as Lindr water dispensers or water coolers).
- Packaging Technology: Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP packaging) to extend the shelf life of food products.
- Agriculture & Industry: Applications such as pH regulation of water or use in greenhouse horticulture.
Product details
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas cylinder, filled with 2 kg of CO₂, specifically developed for food-grade applications (built for long-term and professional use).
Transport
Transport:
- Securing: The low center of gravity makes the cylinder less prone to tipping, but during transport in a vehicle, the cylinder must always be secured with a tension strap or in a fixed bracket to prevent it from sliding.
- Protective cap: Even with this compact model, do not forget to screw the protective cap onto the valve as soon as the pressure regulator has been removed.
Information
Safety
Specific considerations for the B2,7k (Short/Steel)
- Always upright: Despite its stable, short design, it is absolutely essential that the cylinder is always used and transported upright. In a lying position, liquid CO₂ flows into the pressure regulator, leading to acute freezing and potential defects in your equipment.
- Space-saving: Due to the "short construction," this cylinder often fits in places where the slender B03L cylinder would be too tall, such as in the lower housing of many welding machines.
- Risk of freezing: During intensive gas withdrawal, the valve can become very cold. Use caution when disconnecting; do not touch the valve and regulator with bare hands.
- Safety in case of leakage: Because CO₂ is heavier than air, it settles near the floor in the event of a leak. In rooms where this cylinder is used, ensure natural or mechanical ventilation at floor level.
