Various Types of Gas Manifolds

Nov 29th, 2009 | gas manifolds

When it comes to gas manifolds, there are several different kinds that are available. Depending upon the industry that you are in and the task at hand, you will have to select the appropriate manifold. Different manifolds have different features that can make changing out a tank much easier. If your business is looking for safer and more effective ways to change out tanks, you can look into purchasing the appropriate gas manifold equipment. There are dozens of different styles available in order effectively work with whatever gas that you use.

Gas manifolds provide a safe, cost-effective way of connecting and changing out compressed gas cylinders by simply eliminating the need to repeatedly handle the regulator during a cycle change-out. You can save yourself both time and money by using these manifolds. You will also be able to significantly reduce accidents caused by human error in changing out tanks.

A continuous supply manifold uses a pressure reducing regulator with diaphragm valves to create a compact gas delivery system that provides continuous gas flow. It uses two different gas sources, so when one source empties, it automatically draws from the second source. The first source can then be changed without interruption of the outlet pressure. New systems should always include a check valve to prevent back-flow of gas from the delivery system. These systems will save you time and provide for continuous operation.

A header manifold provides a cost-effective way to connect multiple high-pressure gas cylinders to the same gas supply line. This design in gas manifolds can increase both gas storage capacity and flow rate, and also provides a means for a continuous supply of gas.

A high-pressure inlet manifold is ideal for applications where gas consumption warrants one or two cylinders. It provided a safe, cost-effective means of connecting and changing out cylinders by eliminating the need to repeatedly handle the regulator.

Gas manifold systems can be constructed for indoor or outdoor use and can be fitted with a lot of helpful features. You can have a flow limit safety shut-off valve installed in order to stop potentially dangerous and expensive gas leaking by automatically shutting off the flow from the cylinder when the flow exceeds a specified level.

A gas manifold is a great way to increase your productivity, eliminate error, and enhance your gas delivery system. This equipment will significantly improve your daily operations and supply you with a cost effective solution.
