Please contact us to order
A steel carbon dioxide CO₂ B50 cylinder with a maximum industrial capacity of 37.5 kg of liquid CO₂ (water capacity approx. 50 liters) is fully tailored to the highest demands of the food and beverage industry. Thanks to its enormous capacity and uncompromising purity, this large packaging is the ultimate choice for industrial production lines, large breweries, and large-scale applications where continuity, hygiene, and reliability are absolutely crucial.
Important info!
Key Applications in the Food Sector:
- Beverage Industry & Breweries: Continuously and on a gigantic scale dispensing, dosing, and carbonating enormous volumes of beer, soft drinks, cider, and other beverages.
- Sparkling Water Production & Bottling Plants: Indispensable for industrial water production lines, large-scale bottling plants, and central water cooling systems with a continuously high demand.
- Packaging Technology (MAP): Packaging food products on an industrial scale under a modified atmosphere (Modified Atmosphere Packaging) to optimally guarantee shelf life, taste, and freshness.
- Agro & Industry: Heavy supporting processes in the sector, such as the precise pH regulation of large water streams or large-scale applications within greenhouse horticulture.
Product details
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas cylinder, filled with 37.5 kg of CO₂, specifically developed as shielding gas (built for long-term and professional use).
Transport
Transport:
- ADR Regulations: For commercial transport, this format is subject to strict ADR guidelines. Ensure you have the correct transport document ("UN 1013, Carbon Dioxide, 2.2") and the required safety equipment (fire extinguisher).
- Fixation: The cylinder must be secured in the vehicle using a certified rack and ratchet straps at a minimum of two heights. Due to the high center of gravity, lateral displacement during a sharp turn is a real risk if the cylinder is not secured extremely tightly.

Safety
Specific safety information for the B50 (Steel):
- Always upright: It is strictly forbidden to tilt the cylinder or use it in a lying position. With a content of 37.5 kg of liquid, a leak or improper use can cause a massive amount of gas to expand instantly, resulting in the direct risk of the entire regulator installation freezing over.
- Mechanical transport mandatory: A filled B50 easily weighs between 70 and 85 kg (including the weight of the steel cylinder itself). Never attempt to lift this manually. Use only a robust cylinder hand truck with large wheels or a forklift/stacker.
- Freezing risk & preheating: For the B50 cylinder, the use of a pressure regulator with a powerful heating element (CO₂ heater) is strictly necessary for almost any form of continuous consumption. Without heating, the valve will immediately freeze and block due to the Joule-Thomson effect.
- Ventilation & Monitoring: A B50 cylinder is a large source of CO₂. A leak in an enclosed space can lead to a life-threatening concentration. A CO₂ detection system with an alarm is the industrial standard in the storage area and the workplace.
