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:

  • 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.

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.
