Since we have switched over from the standard 50 litre, 230 bar gas cylinders to the 33 litre 300 bar ARCAL™ cylinders with the built in regulators supplied by Energas I’ve noticed a significant cost saving on regulators as we currently have 14 welding machines on the go.
The snap on connector and built in regulators are so user friendly, saving on production time. Also the ease of transporting the smaller cylinders to and from the gas store is much easier and safer for the welders/platers. We also use the ARCAL™ cylinders on a lot of site works, currently on the River Ouse Bridge where we have to man handle the cylinders to the desired locations.
The weight, size difference, portability and stability of the ARCAL™ 33 litre 300 bar cylinders versus the previously used lower pressure 50 litre cylinders makes the site work and set up so much quicker and safer.
I have no intention of reverting back to the old large, heavy, 50 litre cylinders.
