5 kg Carbon dioxide CO₂ - B07 - steel
A carbon dioxide (CO₂) B07 gas cylinder is an industrial gas cylinder with a water capacity of 7 liters, filled with 5 kg of liquid CO₂. This cylinder is manufactured from robust steel and is designed for environments where a larger gas supply is required than what more compact sizes can offer.
As with other CO₂ cylinders, the gas in the B07 is stored in liquid form under saturated vapor pressure (approximately 50-60 bar at room temperature). No porous mass is required. Due to its larger volume, this cylinder is an excellent choice for users seeking a balance between a substantial usage time and a weight that is still manageable.
Key features:
- Higher capacity: With a 5 kg fill, the B07 is highly suitable for applications with higher consumption, significantly reducing the frequency of cylinder swaps.
- Steel durability: The heavier steel provides maximum protection for the liquid load, making the cylinder very suitable for demanding industrial environments.
- Applications: Widely used in the professional hospitality industry , intensive welding work (MAG welding), and industrial processes where a constant supply of CO₂ is essential.

Carbon dioxide CO₂, gas cylinder, filled with 5kg CO₂, , specially for welding technology and light industrial applications (made for long-term and professional use).
Transport
Transport:
- Fixation: Given the considerable weight (the cylinder itself plus 5 kg of liquid), solid, vertical fixation in the vehicle is mandatory. Use a professional cylinder holder or a sturdy mounting system with ratchet straps.
- Safety: Always wear work gloves and safety shoes during loading and unloading. The valve cap must always be on the cylinder during transport.
Information
Safety
Specific safety information for the B07 (Steel)
- Always upright: The cylinder must be used and transported strictly upright at all times. If liquid CO₂ enters the pressure regulator while the cylinder is lying down, the regulator will immediately freeze, and irreparable damage to the closing mechanisms may occur.
- Risk of freezing: At higher flow rates (such as during continuous tapping or welding), the risk of the valve freezing increases. Using a pressure regulator with preheating is strongly recommended for this size to ensure a constant gas flow.
- Risk of asphyxiation: Because CO₂ is heavier than air and a 5 kg cylinder contains a large amount of gas, good ventilation in the workplace is essential. In the event of a leak in a confined space, the oxygen level can quickly drop below safe limits.
- Avoid heat: Although steel is robust, the internal pressure remains temperature-sensitive. Do not place the cylinder near direct heat sources; this prevents the safety valve on the valve from activating unnecessarily.
