4 kg carbon dioxide CO₂ - Food Grade - 5.4 l - steel
149,96 €
A steel carbon dioxide (CO₂) B05,4 cylinder with a capacity of 4 kg of liquid CO₂ (water capacity approx. 5.4 liters) is specifically tailored to the strict requirements of the food and beverage industry. Thanks to its larger capacity, this cylinder is ideal for higher-consumption applications where continuity and reliability are paramount.
Important info!
Key Features & Specifications for Food Applications:
- Foodgrade Quality (Foodgrade - E290): Filled with high-purity carbon dioxide that meets strict standards (usually > 99.9% pure). This guarantees that no harmful odors, tastes, or contaminants enter the final product.
- Robust Steel Design: Manufactured from high-quality steel, designed for intensive and long-term professional use in demanding environments such as hospitality and industrial production.
- Beverage Industry: Professionally dispensing and carbonating large volumes of beer, soft drinks, and cider.
- Sparkling Water Production: Ideal for hospitality venues, corporate canteens, and larger water systems or water coolers.
- Packaging Technology (MAP): Packaging food products under a modified atmosphere to significantly extend shelf life and freshness.
- Agro & Industry: Supporting applications such as pH regulation of water streams or applications in greenhouse horticulture.

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas cylinder, filled with 4 kg of CO₂, specifically developed for food-grade applications (built for long-term and professional use).
Transport
Transport:
- Fixation: Due to its greater weight (compared to 1.5 kg and 2 kg cylinders), proper fixation in the vehicle is essential. Use a dedicated cylinder holder or ratchet straps to prevent the cylinder from sliding or tipping over while driving.
- Protective cap: During transport, always ensure that the protective cap is screwed onto the valve once the pressure regulator has been removed.

Safety
Specific safety information for the B05,4 (Steel):
- Always upright: It is crucial that this cylinder is strictly used and transported upright. In a tilted or lying position, liquid CO₂ can enter the pressure regulator, leading to immediate freezing (-78°C) and potentially causing serious damage to the equipment.
- Temperature management: The internal pressure depends on the ambient temperature. Avoid exposure to heat sources or direct sunlight, as the pressure in the cylinder rises rapidly when heated.
- Ventilation: Since CO₂ is heavier than air, it can displace oxygen in the lower levels of a room in the event of a leak. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in basements or confined spaces.
- Risk of freezing: During rapid gas withdrawal, the valve can freeze. For continuous use, use a pressure regulator with a built-in heating element to prevent the valve from freezing (and the subsequent blockage of the gas flow).
