Liquid Helium Containers
High Performance
Liquid Helium Dewars
Praxair dewars make handling liquid
helium easier because they have several
features developed and patented
specifically for this special purpose.

Multi-layer insulation to reduce

evaporation losses.
Cooled shields to simplify your

operation thereby reducing costs
and hazards. Escaping helium vapor
is used to cool the system, avoiding
the need for cooling with nitrogen
and the subsequent cost and
hazardous vapors in an enclosed
area.
Light weight for easier lifting

and moving.

B
6
Rugged, all-welded construction

for increased performance life of
the multi-layer insulation and
shield system.

Large-diameter neck tubes to allow

for better structural integrity and for
larger-sized liquid helium withdrawal
apparatus.

Behind The Scenes
Safe, Accurate, Consistent, Reliable... Every Time

Sophisticated communication
programs and mixture blending
software (worldwide databases with
international access) provide the very
latest in mixture technology for our
customers.
Component Raw Material
All blending source gases and liquids
are qualified to ensure that they are
appropriate for your application. We
have determined through experience
that certain impurities affect the per-
formance or stability of the final

mixture.
We have developed and used special

proprietary purification techniques for
the removal of critical impurities. Upon
request a complete impurity profile or
specific impurity analyses can be
provided.
Cylinder Preparation
Praxair utilizes a series of computer
controlled heating, vacuum and purge
cycles to prepare both aluminum and
steel cylinders.
For low concentration or highly

reactive components we use our
additional, proprietary cylinder treat-
ment processes. With the application
of these unique cylinder preparation
processes, we are able to produce
accurate part per billion and low part
per million concentration reactive gas
mixtures with guaranteed stabilities.
Blending Systems
Praxair prepares mixtures utilizing
high load, high sensitivity Gravimetric
Balances, Micro Balance Capillary
Injection, Computerized Dynamic
Blending Systems and Volumetric
Manifolds. In every case we use the
method best suited to your application.
All gravimetric balances are calibrated

with NIST traceable weights. All balan-
ces, gauges and process instruments
undergo specified periodic mainte-
nance and calibration.
Mixture Homogenization
Once a particular mixture is prepared,
mechanical rolling, gas turbulence or
molecular agitation is used to ensure
the homogeneity of the final mixture.

Manufacturing And Quality Control
Documentation
Producing quality gas mixtures begins

with proper cylinder selection and pre-
paration to ensure high quality and enhanced stability. Outlets are selected according to Compressed Gas Association
(CGA) guidelines.
Certification:
The manufacture and certification of all

Praxair specialty gases are documented
in a comprehensive quality assurance
manual. Where appropriate, traceability
will be established to Praxair Primary
Laboratory Standards or to NIST Traceable Standards. All processes, procedures, analytical methods and reports
are carefully documented, controlled and
internally assessed by Praxair Q.C./Q.A.
Officers.

Behind The Scenes
Mixture Safety and Quality
Safety and quality considerations

limit the mixtures we can offer
among these are:
Fuel Oxidizer Mixtures

Praxair will complete a safety review
for any mixtures containing flammable
and oxidizing components. Each
mixture is evaluated to ensure the
flammable concentration is well below
the flammable limits. Praxair will de-
termine if the mixture must be made
at reduced pressure. Final mixture
pressures are based on BTU
calculations.
Vapor Pressure Restrictions

Mixtures containing low vapor
pressure components are generally
made at reduced pressures.

Pressure reduction helps prevent

condensation of less volatile
component and ensures mixture
homogeneity. Computer modeling is
used to generate phase envelopes
for mixture evaluation and determi
nation of appropriate pressures.
Where applicable, Praxair will

recommend low-pressure containers
to maximize the volume of contents.
Refer to page B4 for details.

Mixture stability is assessed to make
sure the requested components do
not react with each other or with the
cylinder. Primary consideration is
given to safety and the potential
by-products created by a chemical
reaction. Integrity of analytical accu-

racy is also evaluated. A feasibility
review is peformed prior to mixture
preparation.
Where applicable, Praxair will provide

aluminum or specially treated cylinders
for low concentration reactive gas
mixtures. See Section B for details on
aluminum (page B3) cylinders.
The stability of certain gas mixtures

can be affected by the length of time
they are stored, as well as the storage
temperature. To ensure the integrity
of gas mixtures, storage time and
temperature for susceptible mixtures
should be monitored.
Mixture Grades and Specifications
Praxair mixtures are grouped into two

basic categories, environmental and
standard. Please refer to the table on
page D1 for complete specifications
of all available grades.
Environmental Grades have been
developed to meet the stringent requirements of specific environmental applications such as EPA Protocols, I&M
(Inspection and Maintenance) emission
standards, and mixtures requiring NIST
Traceability. In all cases, specifications
have been developed to meet industry
standards or, in some cases, to meet
regulatory requirements.
When EPA Protocols are not necessary,
but NIST traceability is desired, Praxairs
master grades provide the highest degree
of accuracy and confidence for your most
demanding applications. These mixtures
are prepared gravimetrically on highprecisions, electronic balances or with
state-of-the-art dynamic blenders.
The accuracy from these methods

generally exceed the accuracy of most
analytical instruments. Praxair produces
three grades within the Master category;
Primary, Certified, and Dynamic-Blend.
The minor component(s) are analyzed and
certified by Praxair and are traceable
to NIST reference material.
For general purposes, Praxairs standard
grades are available as Primary and
Certified. These analyzed standards are
typically used for high volume applications where the blending precision and
accuracy of the Master grade is not
required. Standard grade mixtures are
prepared using gravimetric, volumetric,
or partial pressure methods. As in the
Master grades, the minor component(s)
are analyzed and certified. The economical Non-Certified grade is suitable for
applications that do not require
analytical certification.

If your requirements call for specifications that fall outside of those defined by
Praxairs various grades, a custom standard will include the exact specifications
you need.

Common Minor Components in Specialty Mixtures
Praxairs mixture blending capabilities are among

the most extensive in the
in-dustry. We can blend hundreds of minor components
in a variety of balance gas-es
in concentrations from <1
ppm to >50%.
The following section contains information for binary
mixtures of the most common minor components,
such as:
D
Acetylene
Ammonia
Argon
Benzene
n-Butane
Carbon Dioxide
Carbon Monoxide
Carbonyl Sulfide
Dimethyl Disulfide
Dimethyl Sulfide
Ethane
Ethanol
Ethylene
If your required component is not listed here, please contact

your Praxair representative for a custom quotation.
How to Create Your Praxair Mixtures in 3 Easy Steps
List minor component(s),

desired concentration (e.g.
ppm, vol%) and specify the
desired balance gas.
Specify desired mixture

grade to meet your specific
requirements. Blend tolerance and analytical uncertainty can be specified using
Custom Standard. See page
D1 for details.
Specify desired cylinder

style. For first time mixture
orders, consult Praxair for
the cylinder style best suited
for your volume and quality
needs.

General
Instrumentation Gases
Obtaining precise, accurate results requires a combination
of sensitive analytical equipment and high purity instrumentation gases. Impurities can contaminate and even
damage instrumentation and compromise analytical work.
Over the years, Praxair has focused extensive resources

on research and development of instrumentation gases.
As analytical equipment and technology become more
advanced and precise, so do our instrumentation gases.
These gases are prepared specifically for use with
analytical equipment.
In addition, our technical support personnel are experienced
with the equipment and its applications, enabling them to give
you the best service possible. At Praxair, we are dedicated to
helping you select the gas product to achieve superior results,
whether in lab analysis or process control.
The instrumentation reference guide on the following pages
will assist you in the appropriate selection of gases and gas
grades for your specific instrument needs. The grade recommendations are based on the analytical range/sensitivity of
your instrument application. The reference guide is categorized into analytical method/detectors:

Gas Chromatography (by detector)
Optical Spectrometry (absorption and emission)
Mass Spectrometry
Others
For specification and ordering information, the following

pages provide pure gas page references as well as a
complete summary of instrument mixtures.

Type of Analysis
Impurity Considerations
Universal Detector
Atmospheric contaminants can oxidize the
detector filament giving rise to negative peaks
and reduced sensitivity.
Organic Compounds
Hydrocarbons in carrier and fuel gases can give rise
to baseline noise and reduced detector sensitivity.
Oxygen and water cause column deterioration and
affect retention time on critical separations.
Halogenated Compounds
Detector response and column life are reduced by
oxygen and water. Hydrocarbons and halocarbons
can produce baseline noise, negative peaks and
plumbing contamination.
Universal Detector
Atmospheric impurities can cause baseline
noise signal polarity and reduced detector
stability and sensitivity.
Sulfur or Phosphorous Compounds
Organics can yield baseline noise and carbon
dioxide can suppress detector response.

Materials (NTRMs)
EPA Protocols
NIST Traceable Reference Materials (NTRM)

Certified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and accepted
by the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), as the highest accuracy standards
commercially produced. These standards are
the regulatory equivalent to NISTs Standard
Reference Materials (SRMs) and are made
up of the same components and are within
the same analytical range.
NTRMs are manufactured in a batch by

Praxair, with NIST assigning the component
concentration. The NTRM program was
designed to replace the EPAs Certified
Reference Material (CRM) program. EPA has
stated that it accepts NTRMs in place of
CRMs and allows their use as equivalent to
SRMs for certification of emissions and
production of mixture standards, such as
EPA Protocols.
The NIST Traceable Reference Materials

(NTRM) program, was developed in a
consortium with NIST, EPA, and industry
participation. The program was intended to
increase the availability of NIST traceable
primary gas standards to industry. NTRMs
supplement the supply of existing gaseous
Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) and
can be used wherever SRMs have been
used in the past. These mixtures are similar
in composition to NIST primary and SRM
standards. However, because the concentration of the certified component can be
bracketed by existing primary NIST standards, NTRM component concentrations
can fall above, below or between existing
SRM concentrations. This offers end users
additional calibration reference points for
greater accuracy and lower uncertainty
measurements.
Available mixture components include:

Carbon Dioxide
Carbon Monoxide
Hydrogen Sulfide
Methane
Nitric Oxide
Nitrogen Dioxide
Oxygen
Propane
Sulfur Dioxide
Concentration ranges fall closely above,
below or between existing NIST SRM
concentrations.

Reminders
Multi-component Protocols are

assigned a certification period based
on the minor component or balance
gas with the shortest certification
period.
Protocol concentrations lower than
those listed will have an initial 6-month
certification period. Upon recertifica-
tion, acceptable cylinders may have
extended certifications.
Some
mixtures may not be available

due to critical mixture limitations and
safety considerations.
Analytical uncertainty for certain mix-

ture components and concentrations
may vary. The actual analytical uncer-
tainty will be specified on the

Certificate of Analysis.
Trace concentrations of other

pollutants in the mixture can be
certified on request.

For CEM zero grade gas products,

refer to Section C for Air (see pages
C2 and E10) and Nitrogen (see pages
C46 and E10).
1-877-PRAXAIR
Other mixture components or

concentrations may be available,
please inquire.
Certification periods apply only to
mixtures in aluminum containers.
6-month certification applies to all
others (e.g. steel).
EPA Protocol mixtures should not
be used below 150 psig.

Zero Gases
Zero Gases for Environmental Applications

Setting New Standards of Purity
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) regulations 40 CFR Parts 50, 58, 60,
75 and 266, state that the zero grade air
or zero grade nitrogen used for Continuous
Emission Monitoring (CEM) must contain
no detectable concentration of the pollutant of interest. Furthermore, the zero gas
should contain no contaminants that cause
a detectable response to the analyzer or
that suppress or enhance the analyzers
response. If the zero gas is not certified to
be free of critical contaminants, it could be
out of compliance.

Mobile Source Emissions
Mobile Source Emissions Standards

Federal, Provincial and State vehicle emission regulations
require certification of tailpipe emissions to prescribed levels.
These regulations deal with two areas: new engine certification
and in use certification for currently owned and licensed
on-road vehicles.
These engines are used in passenger vehicles, lawn and

garden products, watercraft and recreational equipment.
A wide range of pure gases and calibration standards,
blended to the manufacturers exacting specifications,
are supplied to this market segment.
High pressure precision gas mixtures, in various concentrations,

are supplied to original equipment manufacturers for new engine
certification of internal combustion engines (ICE).
In use testing is traditionally referred to as Inspection

and Maintenance (I/M) testing. I/M automotive calibration
standards are referred to as BAR mixtures, and are
defined by the California Bureau of Automotive Repair.

Metal Fabrication
Laser Systems Overview
Laser Supply Systems

The purchase of laser cutting or welding
equipment represents a substantial
financial commitment by a metal fabricator. To help maximize the return on
investment, special consideration must
be given when selecting the lasing gases (He, N2 and CO2), the assist gases
(N2 and O2) and the supply system.
Essential factors to be considered include

the selection of the gas type (gas purity
and mixture accuracy), supply mode (flow
capacity, delivery pressure requirements,
etc.) and design of the gas regulation and
distribution equipment.
Praxair LaserStar Gases
and Blends
For optimum laser performance Praxairs
LaserStar gases are produced to meet
the stringent requirements of the laser
processing industry. Available as pure
gases or pre-blended mixtures of helium,
nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and occasionally, carbon monoxide, Praxairs LaserStar
gases are used to generate the laser
beam in a wide variety of CO2 lasers.
Carbon dioxide lasers must be protected

from the problems created by moisture,
hydrocarbons, and other contaminants
which can be introduced through the
gas supply system. These impurities
can reduce laser power, create unstable
operating characteristics, damage expensive optics, and cause costly downtime.
With a properly designed delivery system,
the use of LaserStar gases helps assure
optimum laser performance, maximum
operating duty cycle, and minimum
maintenance costs.
Supply Modes
From lasing gases to assist gases,
welding and cutting operations can be
optimized when proper care is exercised
in the design and selection of the gas
supply system. Praxair offers a variety
of supply modes that will help improve
economy and productivity.
High Pressure Cylinders
Bulk Tanks
Bulk Tanks with Cryogenic Booster
Gas Regulation and Distribution

System Design
To further enhance laser equipment
performance, high quality regulation and
distribution equipment systems must be
employed. These specially designed
systems offer a number of advantages:
Help to maintain gas purity and gas
mixture integrity (to the use point)
Contribute to precise pressure and
flow control
Provide uninterrupted gas supply
Improve operational safety and ease
of use
Decrease the frequency for
periodic laser maintenance.
Praxair offers a complete line of gas handling and delivery equipment (manifolds,
regulators, flow control devices, control
panels and accessories), and safety
products. Refer to Section F for complete
specifications and details.
SM
The LaserStar Overnight

Key Applications
LCMS High Pressure Nitrogen
This high-flow application typically warants
liquid supply source. Most commonly, customers use high pressure portable liquid containers (see page B7) or microbulk systems
(see pages B8-B9) where available. Praxairs
vast array of containment options allow you
to chose the best possible mode of supply
for each applicaton.
Refer to page C67 for complete specifications for cryogenic liquid nirogen.
Storing Biological Samples

Freezers Whether storing samples in
liquid or vapor phase, low pressure
(22 psig) liquid nitrogen with a boiling
point of -196 C serves as the refrigerant
to help freezers maintain low temperatures.
Portable liquid containers, microbulk or
bulk supply are the three modes of supply
available for delivery of cryogenic nitrogen
to cryobiological equipment.
Membrane systems producing nitrogen

on-site from a compressed air source have
become another popular option for LCMS
users. Praxair can help you select the best
mode of supply based on a number of
factors, including number of instruments,
facility location, and layout.
Refer to page F81 for complete details
and specifications for Praxairs Membrane
Systems.
Refer to pages F92-F118 for our complete

line of cryogenic products.
Refer to the Instrument Reference Guide (see pages E2-E5) for a complete listing of
gases for analytical instrumentation, including GC, ICP, MS and others.

Food
Extendapak Gases
The use of modified atmospheres to
replace air in food packages is applicable
to many types of food. Controlling food
spoilage is complex and more than one
gas may be appropriate for the same
application. However, specific packaging
conditions and shelf life extension re-
quirements play a role in determining
which one is most suitable for a given
application.
Praxairs Extendapak gases are used
by food processors and packagers to
extend the shelf life of their products.
These gases include pure nitrogen, carbon dioxide and oxygen or a mixture of
these products and function to displace
unwanted atmospheric gases when used
in a Modified Atmosphere Packaging
(MAP) process.
MAP represents only one aspect of
what a food processor can use to ensure
that high quality and safe food reaches
the marketplace and, ultimately, the
consumer.
Extendapak Gases
Most importantly, MAP does not eliminate

or reduce the processors responsibility for
food manufacturing practices. In fact, the
opposite is true. MAP is only appropriate
for plants producing the cleanest of products. No gas combination in the package
will ever reverse a foods poor microbial
condition. At its best, MAP will only extend the keeping quality of a food.
Praxair has also developed other gas
technologies for food applications. Please

Semiconductor
Process Gases
Silicon-Precursor Gases
Etchant Gases
Silicon-precursor gases such as silane

and dichlorosilane are used in epitaxial
and chemical vapor deposition (CVD)
processes to deposit layers of silicon
or silicon compounds.
Many gases are used in etching process.

Halocarbons are used typically to etch
silicon compounds or for chamber cleaning, whereas the other chlorine or fluorine
compounds are usually required for etching metallic interconnects. The choice of
gas strongly depends on the ability of a
given mixture of gases to selectively etch
one film in the presence of another with
a sufficient degree of profile control. For
CVD chamber cleaning, NF3 has become
the preferred molecule in many tools.
Dopant Gases
E
46
Dopant gases are a source of controllable impurities to modify local electrical

properties of the semiconductor material.
Specifically, a dopant contributes either
an electron deficiency (p dopant) or an
electron (n dopant) to the local structure
of the molecules crystal lattice, which in
turn alters the conductivity of the material.
For silicon, the p and n dopants are found
in Groups III and V, respectively of the
periodic table.
Dopants are available in liquid, solid and
gaseous states. The common gaseous
n dopants are arsine and phosphine,
while the common gaseous p dopant is
diborane. Dopants are used in epitaxial
deposition, diffusion and ion implantation.
A major growth area for arsine and
phosphine use is the fabrication of III-V
devices, using a vapor phase epitaxy
(VPE) or, more frequently, the metal
organic chemical vapor deposition
(MOCVD) method.

Atmospheric/purge gases in cylinders
are used for purging certain processing
systems and equipment when a semiconductor manufacturer is concerned
about possible back-contamination of
the house purge lines. Argon, helium,
hydrogen and nitrogen are supplied to
semiconductor manufacturers in cylinders,
as well as in discrete deliveries of bulk
liquids. Since these gases represent
cylinder deliveries, they are classified
as semiconductor process gases.
Some processes, such as sputtering,
require only small volumes of gas, making
the single-cylinder usage of argon, for
example, more economical. Sputtering
technology requires the process to be
run under vacuum conditions and argon
ions are accelerated in an electric field.
Praxair manufactures a complete line of

gas handling equipment featuring the
most advanced technologies, including
gas cabinets, panels and controllers.
See page F50-F54
for details.

Through physical bombardment, the argon

ions knock molecules off the surface of a
solid target. The ejected material from gas,
is a strong oxidizing agent at temperatures
greater than 300 C.
Mixtures
At Praxairs Kingman Semiconductor
Process Gases Center, process gas
mixtures are blended to the tight tolerances required by the electronics industry.
The blending systems were designed to
reduce cylinder-to-cylinder and batch-tobatch variation. Computer modeling used
in application of the blending systems
helps ensure that contamination control
levels and blending tolerances meet
specifications required by the industry.

Regulator Summary and Reference Guide
Regulator Summary
Critical Purity 4000 Series Regulators

These stainless steel and brass regulators are highly recommended
where purity and contamination requirements are extremely important. They are most often used with Critical Purity Gases (greater than
99.9995% or purity grade 5.5) and Toxic or Flammable gases, where
vent lines are required from the regulator. The 4000 Series regulators
are available for both corrosive and non-corrosive service.
High Purity 3000 Series Regulators These nickel-plated brass/
stainless steel regulators are recommended for applications where
diffusion resistance is an important factor in ensuring purity. They
provide the same features as the 4000 series with the exception of
the relief valve. This series is most often used with high purity gases
(equal to 99.999% or purity grade 5.0). The 3000 Series regulators
are available for both corrosive and non-corrosive service.
High Purity Economical 2000 Series Regulators
These chrome-plated brass regulators have similar features to the
3000 Series with a few specific design characteristics. They are
most often used with high purity gases (less than 99.999% or purity
grade 5.0) when higher flow rates are required and cost is the most
important issue. The 2000 Series regulators are available for noncorrosive service.
These regulators incorporate quality features from all of the above
series. They have been designed with special features for specific
applications.
The following Regulator Reference Guide will assist you in the
appropriate selection of a Specialty Gas regulator. We have
provided a Series recommendation for each pure gas offered
in this catalog. Within each Series select which model best
suits your needs using the selection and reference guidelines.
If you have any questions, contact your local Praxair Specialty

How to Select Praxair Regulators
Most specialty gases are supplied in

cylinders compressed to high pressures.
Pressure regulators reduce these high
pressures to lower pressures that can
be safely used in an operating system.
Proper regulator selection is critical for
both safety and effectiveness of operating systems.
Many variables are involved in selecting the proper pressure regulator. While
certainly not a comprehensive list, the
following provides some of the more important considerations. To further assist
in making proper regulator selections,
refer to Section C Pure Gases or Section
D Mixtures as applicable, of the Praxair
Specialty Gases & Equipment reference
guide for recommendations.
1 Materials Compatibility
Materials used to construct regulators
must be compatible with the gas especially
those materials (wetted parts) in contact with
the gas. We offer a wide variety of regulators
with various materials of construction to help
ensure that the correct regulator is available
for your needs. A materials compatibility
chart is located on pages H1-H3.
F
2
2 Toxicity
Regulators must be designed with vent
connectors to permit the attachment of a
vent line or disposal system as a precaution,
in the unlikely event of a diaphragm failure.
3 Gas Purity
Like all system components, regulators
should be selected to protect the purity of
the service gas. As an example, regulators
with stainless steel diaphragms are recommended for high purity applications because
they are more diffusion-resistant than those
with rubber-type diaphragms. For low
particulate applications, consideration should
be given to selecting regulators with machine
welded VCR connections. Optional helium
leak tests also help to ensure the integrity
of regulators.
1-877-PRAXAIR
4a Line or Cylinder Regulator

Cylinder regulators as their name implies
are connected directly to gas cylinders.
Typically offered in both single and two-stage
designs, cylinder regulators normally have
inlet and delivery pressure gauges.
6 Inlet Pressure Rating

Regulators must be able to safely handle
incoming gas pressure. Here again, a
wide selection is available which includes
regulators that handle inlet pressures up
to 10,000 psig.
Line regulators, on the other hand, are

used directly in piping systems such as
downstream of the manifold or bulk storage
vessel. Because inlet pressure in piping
systems is normally constant, line regulators
are typically single-stage configurations
with delivery pressure gauges only.
7 Helium Leak Integrity

Helium leak integrity is a measure of how well
a regulator prevents gases from leaking into
or out of a regulator body. The measured
quantity is expressed as a flow rate such as
1 x 10-9 scc/sec He (1 billionth of a cc/sec).
In this case, a helium leak integrity rating of
1 x 10-9 would indicate that the regulator
would leak enough gas to fill a cubic centimeter every 33 years. If the rating were
1 x 10-3 the regulator would leak enough gas
to fill a cubic centimeter in just 17 minutes.
4b Single or Dual Stage Design

Single stage regulators reduce pressure in
one step as gas is consumed. Dual stage
regulators are actually two regulators housed in one body. The first regulator (first stage)
is non-adjustable and reduces in-coming
pressure to an intermediate setting (typically
250 to 300 psig). The second stage is adjustable and reduces intermediate pressure to
final desired delivery pressure. Because the
second stage sees only relatively minor inlet
pressure changes from the first stage, dual
stage regulators maintain steady delivery
pressure and do not require periodic adjustment. They are well suited for applications
where constant delivery pressure is essential.
5 Output Pressure Range
Regulators must be able to reduce pressure
to levels compatible with the operating
system and consistent with process needs.
Our extensive line of pressure regulators
provides numerous choices with delivery
pressure ranges available as low as
0-0.5 psig, or as high as 0-6000 psig.
Helium is used as the test gas because it is

chemically inert, its easy to detect and its
an extremely small molecule which allows
it to pass through the smallest leak. The
lower the helium leak specification, the better
the regulator will be at preventing leaks into
the atmosphere and minimizing contamination from gases outside the regulator body.
8 Other Considerations
Other criteria for consideration include
operating temperature, flow requirements,
regulatory issues (e.g. medical regulators
manufactured to FDA standards), special
applications, design preferences and cost.
Call your local representative for further
assistance.
Note: Regulators are designed to control
pressure. Generally they are supplied with
gauges that indicate pressure. Regulators
do not measure or control flow unless
equipped with devices (such as metering
valve or flowmeter) specifically designed
for those purposes. Contact your local
sales representative to find out more about
Praxairs new line of flow monitoring and
flow controlling devices.

Regulators
In accordance with our philosophy of

flexible design, Praxair has developed
a versatile modular manufacturing
system to accommodate any individual requirement. With all the options
Praxair offers, listing discrete part
numbers for each regulator series
would be impossible. Therefore, we
have created a part number matrix
which allows you to design a regulator
to meet the needs of your application.
How to Order Praxair Regulators
To complete the part number matrix, consult the Regulator Summary and Reference Guide
on page F1. On this page, you will find a description of each series of Praxair regulators with
their recommended application and appropriate gas usage. You may also refer to the Pure
Gases section of the Praxair Specialty Gases & Equipment reference guide for equipment
recommendations that will help you make the proper selection (see Section C). If you are
new to selecting regulators or would like a quick refresher, review steps A through D below.
The quick-find reference guide on page F1 will help you identify the catalog page that contains the regulator information you need. If you require additional assistance, please consult
your local Praxair sales representative or call Praxair customer service at 1-877-PRAXAIR.
Select the desired outlet pressure range from those available in the A column.
The selection of an outlet pressure range automatically specifies the outlet pressure
gauge which appears in the adjacent column. For example, a regulator with a
0-250 psig outlet pressure range will have a 0-400 psig pressure gauge installed.
Choose the inlet pressure gauge from those available in the B column. While the
most common cylinder pressure is between 2200 psig and 2400 psig, several gases
are stored in cylinders at other pressures.
Example
When using the table below to order a
4000 Series 316L stainless steel, single
stage cylinder regulator with an outlet
pressure range of 0-50 psig, a 0-4000 psig
inlet pressure gauge, a diaphragm valve
with a 1/4" tube fitting, psi/kPa pressure
gauges, and a CGA 580 connection for
nitrogen service, the part number would
be PRS40222331-580 (see page F8).
Indicate the outlet assembly desired from those available in the C column.
Since there are a wide variety of tubing and piping systems in use, the matrix
accommodates virtually any style of connection, eliminating the need for adapters
and reducing potential leak paths. Praxair also offers a choice of valve options for
gas flow control.
Select an assembly option from those available in the D column. A bare body
regulator is shipped without peripherals, with all ports open and unplugged.
A standard regulator comes completely assembled with all selected peripherals,
ready for use.
CGA
Specify an inlet connection. On all regulator series, Praxair will provide any CGA,
DIN 477, BS 341, or other standard connection provided it is recognized as safe for
the materials of construction and pressure rating of the regulator. Consult Praxair
for proper selection of the inlet connection. A 000 at the end of the part number
indicates inlet connection (1/4" female NPT).

100 Regulators
Corrosion Resistant Regulators
The PRS 100 is a rugged yoke-style tied-diaphragm regulator

designed for the toughest industrial environments with its electroless
nickel-plated brass forged body. A yoke interconnects the Teflon
lined 316 stainless steel diaphragm and the PRS 100s unique multiseat block, providing instant response to the toughest flow demands
and positive shut-off. The multi-seat block is a rotatable seat block
with four separate seats.
The PRS 100 is a reduced-sized version of the PRS 200 Series
regulator to meet space requirements without sacrificing performance
and durability. The PRS 100 regulator features the same large Monel
nozzle, PCTFE seat as the PRS 200 regulator.

for Non-Corrosive and Corrosive Service
High Flow/High Purity Automatic

Changeover System
The 5031B (Brass) and 5031S (316 Stainless Steel) Series high flow/
high purity automatic changeover systems are designed to provide
continuous supply of high purity gases to the laboratory, process or
instrument. The Series 5031 incorporates two regulators set at different
delivery pressures. Down stream line regulators are recommended to
help eliminate supply pressure effects.
Basic Functional Description
When primary supply to the changeover (primary) is consumed, the
secondary supply (reserve) feeds the downstream process. By turning
the regulator handknob clockwise, the primary supply can then be
replenished. When the reserve is depleted the primary will then begin
to feed the process. With a counter clockwise turn of the changeover
regulator handknob, the reserve side can than be replenished.
Typically the 5031B/5031S Series are used with one cylinder per side.
To connect more than one cylinder per side, please order manifold
headers separately (see page F49). The standard models come with
flexible, all stainless steel (Monel lined for oxygen service) pigtails with
armor casing. The CGA connection on each pigtail has a check valve in

service providing the gas to process; the other source is on standby,
and comes on-line when the current source has depleted. The changeover to the standby source occurs automatically. Once the changeover
has occurred, a gas technician replaces the depleted source, turns the
changeover regulator hand knob to the next standby source.
The Series 8000 system includes a line regulator to allow adjustment of
the final delivery pressure to the process. Also included are 6' stainless
steel armor-jacketed flexible pigtails, with CGA check valves, cylinder
isolation and vent valves. This configuration gives the operator the
capability to isolate a source from the changeover panel, allowing
replacement of the source without having to shut down the system.

Bulk Gas Delivery Systems
SureFlow Bulk Specialty Gas Supply Systems

and Controllers
Praxair is revolutionizing flow rates for ammonia as well as many
other specialty gases. Our systems significantly reduce the number
of cylinder changeouts required by conventional systems leading
to improvements in uptime, production costs, more consistent purity,
and most importantly, safety.
The proprietary Praxair enclosed heating system and new silicone
rubber heat blanket system allow for higher flow rates while maintaining
controlled external ton container temperatures. These systems can be
skid mounted to facilitate installation and movement around the facility.
They deliver continuous ammonia flows of 600 slpm with peaks greater
than 3000 slpm.

Flow Meters
Overview
A variable area flowmeter (Figure 1) is a device used for measuring the

flow of gases or gas mixtures. Typically, it consists of a glass metering
tube (1A) which is internally tapered such that the inside diameter at
the bottom of the tube is smaller than at the top. A float or floats (1B)
placed inside the tube is/are contained by float stops (1C) inserted
into the inlet and outlet of the tube. The metering tube assembly (1),
consisting of the glass metering tube, float(s), float stops and tube seat
packing (1D), is fitted between the inlet end block (5) and outlet end
block (6) and sealed by the tube seat packing. The flowmeter is held
together by a window shield (13), a back shield (14) and side plates
(15). Once assembled, the metering tube is tightened against the tube
seat packing via the seal spindle (2) to ensure leak-free operation.
Flowmeters may also be equipped with a metering valve (12) which
adds the capability of controlling flow rate.
As gas enters the flowmeter tube, the float is lifted from the zero
position at the bottom of the tube. The float (Figure 2) rises to a point
where the area surrounding the float is sufficient to allow unrestricted
flow of gas. The greater the flow of gas, the higher the float will rise.
By knowing the variables involved (service gas, pressure, temperature,
weight of float, tube diameter, etc.), the height of the float can
be directly correlated to the flow of gas with relatively good accuracy.
Generally, the tube is inscribed with a scale allowing the user to read
the float position. The scale may be direct reading in flow units such as
standard liters per minute (slpm) or standard cubic feet per hour (scfh).
It may also be in a linear measurement such as millimeters (mm) which
would require a calibration chart for cross referencing
the linear measurement to a corresponding flowrate.

The accuracy of a variable area flowmeter is contingent on both its

operating pressure and temperature. Gases at higher pressures
will be compressed, and therefore a greater volume of gas will pass
through the same given area. Similarly, gases at higher temperatures
will be less dense, and less gas will pass through a given area.

Therefore, all variable area flowmeters are calibrated at specific
temperature and pressure conditions generally at normal
temperature (70 oF) and pressure (14.7 psia).
In selecting a flowmeter, the following items should be taken
into consideration:
1. Materials Compatibility: As with all gas handling equipment,
care must be taken to ensure that the materials used to construct the
flow-meter are compatible with the service gas. Each of the flowmeters
shown in this catalog is provided with a list of its materials of construction.
2. Pressure and Temperature Ratings: The flowmeter must be
capable of handling pressures and temperatures required by the
particular application. Maximum operating pressures and temperatures
are provided for each flowmeter under Specifications.
3. Measuring Range: Flowmeters have specific measuring ranges associated with them. These ranges will vary depending on the flowmeter
model as well as the tube and float combination selected. Obviously,
the specific flowmeter chosen must be capable of measuring in the
flow range required by the process. In general, for the best accuracy, it
is suggested that the flometer be sized for operation in the upper part
of its range.
4. Accuracy: The flowmeter should be accurate to the degree required by the application. Accuracy specifications are listed for each
of our flowmeters. Generally, this will be 5% or 10% of full scale.
Full scale accuracy means that the accuracy specification is based
on the flowmeters maximum capacity. For example, a meter with
a measuring range of 1-10 slpm and an accuracy specification of
10% will have an actual accuracy of 1 slpm across its entire
range that is, 10% of the maximum capacity of 10 slpm.
5. Repeatability: In many gas processes, the ability to duplicate
flow measurements over time is more important than the absolute
accuracy of the readings. The repeatability specification shown for
each flowmeter refers to the degree to which a meter will repeat a
previous flow reading. In general, variable area flowmeters have very
good repeatability, many as high as 0.25% of full scale.

If adjustments to flow rates are required, a flowmeter
equipped with a metering valve should be selected.

Flow Devices
Mass Flowmeters/Controllers/Blending
Mass Flow Measuring, Controlling and Blending Systems

Using state-of-the-art measuring and microprocessor technologies, Praxair has assembled
a series of systems which can measure the mass flow rate of gas streams; measure and
control mass flow rate; or perform gas blending operations all with extremely high accuracy.
These systems consist of an Operator Console that is electronically coupled to one or more
Mass Flow Sensors and/or Mass Flow Control Modules.
Mass Flow Sensors
Mass Flow Sensors measure gas flow with
a (+/-1% full scale accuracy, 1.5% full scale
accuracy above 500 slpm). Since they do
not control gas flow, Mass Flow Sensors
are only used in applications requiring flow
measurement. Capable of working with any
of our Operator Consoles, Mass Flow Sensors are available for measuring flow rates
in ranges as low as 0.1-5 sccm to ranges
as high as 20-1000 slpm. For complete
specifications on flow sensors, see pages
F69 and F70.
Mass Flow Control Modules
F
68
Mass Flow Control Modules measure flow

using the same principles as our Mass Flow
Sensors. However, they also feature an
integral electromagnetic control valve that
gives them the ability to control gas flow with
a (+/- 1% full scale accuracy, 1.5% full scale
accuracy above 500 slpm). Based on this
control capability, they can also be used to
perform gas blending operations.
Available in two different models, all Mass
Flow Control Modules are capable of working with either our CM2 or CM4 Operator
Consoles.
1. Model FRC, Fast Response Control
Modules, are offered in ranges from
0.1-5 sccm through 20-1000 slpm.
2. Model HPC, High Pressure Control
Modules, can operate at inlet pressures
as high as 3000 psig. They are available
for flow ranges from 2-100 sccm up to
0.4-20 slpm.
For complete specifications on Control
Modules, see pages F71.
Operator Consoles
Praxair Instrument Interface Modules
Models CM2 and CM4 are designed for use
with all Praxair Instrument Series 100 and
200 Mass Flowmeters (MFMs) and Mass
Flow Controllers (MFCs).
1-877-PRAXAIR
Model CM2 employs two channels which

accept flow signal inputs and provides setpoint control for each channel. Model CM4
includes four input channels and likewise has
a setpoint control for each channel. Process
flow rates for all channels are displayed on
a large, bright, red digital panel meter as a
percentage of full scale (F.S.). The range of
this meter is from 000.0 to 102.4 percent.
Setpoints for any channel may also be
displayed on the panel meter in the same
percentage of full scale flow units. Setpoints
are adjustable to any value in the previously
stated range using the 10-turn adjustment
controls.
Control action occurs when the process flow
value in a given channel matches its respective setpoint. Both instruments also feature
Automatic Proportional Tracking (APT) Mode
operation. APT operation permits setting the
flow rate control in one or more channels to
be a fixed ratio of the flow rate control in a
reference channel, regardless of the process
flow rate in that reference channel.
Interconnecting Cables
Interconnecting cables are used in all systems for coupling the Flow Sensors and
Control Modules to the operator console.
One cable is provided with each Sensor or
Control Module purchased. With these 10
foot cables, the Operator Console can be
remotely located away from the sensors
and control modules. This enhances the
operators safety especially when working
with toxic or otherwise hazardous gases.
Materials of Construction
All wetted parts of these systems (parts in
contact with the gas) are of stainless steel
construction with Viton used as a sealing
material. Other seal materials (Buna-N,
EPDM, Neoprene or Kalrez) are available
on special order, allowing these systems to
be used in nearly any gas service.
Selecting Mass Flow Measuring

and Control Systems
1. Review the Operator Console features
on page F71 and select the console that
meets your requirements.
2. Review the specifications on page F73
and determine the type of flow control
or sensing devices required for your
operation. Then select the appropriate
model number. Note: As previously
discussed, Mass Flow Control Modules
are used where both measurement and
control are desired, or for gas blending
applications. Mass Flow Sensors are
used in applications requiring flow

measurement only.
3. Review the applicable selection guide on
page F73 and choose the flow range(s)
required for your operation.
Selecting Gas Blending Systems
1. Review the Operator Console features
on page F71 and select the console for
your needs. As shown in Table 1, the
choices for blending applications are
limited to models CM2 and CM4.
2. Select the appropriate range for each
Mass Flow Control Module. This can be
done by determining the total mixture
flow required and multiplying this by the
percentage composition that each com-
ponent represents in the mixture. Then
compare this to the flow ranges available
on page F73.
3. Review the specifications on page F73
and select the model number of the
desired control module.
Note: In blending systems, the outlets of
flow control modules must be manifolded
together to create the blend. Therefore
to prevent the possibility of back-flow
from one module to another, it is strongly
recommended that you select proper check
valves and install them at the outlet of each
module. See page F123 for check valves.

Gas Generators
High Purity Hydrogen Generators
Hydrogen generators are an excellent source

of ultra pure, dry hydrogen for a wide range
of laboratory uses. The generators are used
extensively with gas chromatographs, as a
feed gas for flame ionization detectors (FID),
as a reaction gas for hall detectors, and as
a carrier gas to ensure absolute repeatability
of retention times. In high sensitivity trace
hydrocarbon analyzers and air pollution
monitors, the hydrogen produced ensures
the lowest possible background noise. Other
applications include using hydrogen for hydrogenation reactions and for FIDs used in
the analysis of engine gas emissions in the
automobile industry.
In all applications high purity hydrogen
generators set the standard for safety,
operational performance, and dependability
while eliminating the need for high pressure
cylinders of hydrogen in the laboratory. They
are compact bench top units designed for
use in the laboratory or in the field.
Hydrogen is generated on demand from no

more than de-ionized water and electricity.
The gas is stored only at low pressure, and
the volume of stored gas is minimal. These
features combined with a unique generator monitoring and alarm system provide
unrivalled levels of end user safety, reliability,
performance and cost of ownership.
Using hydrogen as a GC carrier gas significantly increases analysis speed and separation efficiency compared to helium. Gas
costs and downtime are also significantly
reduced due to the change from a cylinderbased supply.
Fully integrated, fully regenerative micro dryer
technology provides the optimum combination of reliability, performance and cost of
ownership for high purity applications.

99.9999% purity hydrogen on demand.
Produces a continuous supply of pure
hydrogen gas, ideal for carrier and fuel
gas applications

Gas Generators
Zero Air Generators
Zero air generators produce a continuous

flow of clean, dry air with an ultra low residual
methane content of less than 0.05 ppm from
an existing compressed air supply.
An interchangeable top panel allows for
direct mounting of a UHP hydrogen
generator.
The generators can be used to supply zero
air to GC-FID, FPD, NPD, LC/MS, THA and
gas sensing applications.
Zero air generators are easy to install. All
that is required is a standard compressed
air line and an electrical outlet. There are no
complicated operating procedures to learn
or any labor intensive monitoring required.

Gas quality assured Catalyst air
temperature monitoring and display gives
reliable indication of gas purity. High
performance filtration effectively removes
contamination.

Praxairs membrane generators are available in three standard
configurations wall or frame mounted units without compressor,
free-standing units with integral compressor and modular,
site-built units.
Systems that include a Praxair-supplied compressor feature a
unique compressor control system that precisely matches the
compressors performance to the actual air demand, optimizing
energy efficiency and reducing operating cost. These systems
also include a Condensate Management Filter (CMF) system
that separates oil from water sufficiently enough to allow normal
disposal of the water without special treatment. CMF is optional
in Series 11 and 13.
Note: Flows and purities listed on the following charts are based
on input air pressures shown. Increasing air pressure increases flow
or purity. When nitrogen purity requirements are lower than 99.5%,
flow can be increased over that shown in the charts that follow, by
lowering nitrogen purity.

Membrane Air Dehydration

No moving parts, no electricity
required, environmentally sound
Praxairs membrane air dryers use hollow
fiber technology to remove water vapor
from compressed air streams. Dewpoints
of -40 F are available. Seven modules are
available with a wide range of flow rates.
(See Ordering Information below). The
membrane air dryers are combined with
coalescing filters for superior filtration
and drying.
Praxair membrane air dehydrators separate water molecules from air by selective
permeation. Water molecules permeate
the membranes rapidly and safely return to
the atmosphere. Dehydrated air then flows
directly to the distribution system. Air flow
and pressure are controlled by valves and
regulators.
Membrane dryers use refrigerated dry air
(40 F dewpoint) from your compressor and
are ideal replacements for desiccant dryers.

Praxair membrane air dehydration units can

provide dry air in excess of -100 F (-73 C)
pressure dew point, with flows up to 112
scfm. They have no moving parts, do not
require electricity and are environmentally
sound.
They are easy to install. The dehydration
membrane and associated coalescing
pre-filters are installed in-line in the process
piping with the pre-filters delivering clean air
to the membranes. (The number and grade
of pre-filters required depends on the quality
of the input air.)

Thermal Gas Purifiers and Gas Filters
Introducing Resteks line of re-engineered thermal gas purifiers

This line of purifiers works by producing a chemical reaction between impurities in
the carrier gas stream and the getter material. Because the reaction is non-reversible,
there is no possibility of contaminants breaking through the thermal gas purifier.
Gas purification is very economical when using a thermal gas purifier. After initial
installation cost, getter tubes only require changing once every year; heavy use
and very impure feed gas may require more frequent getter tube replacement.
Welded end-fittings on getter tubes

Packed with reactor-grade, pure getter
material for maximum efficiency and

Resteks line of Super-Clean gas filters is the latest in cartridge gas filtration. Cartridge
systems make changing gas filters quick and easy. The system uses a baseplate that allows
cartridges to be exchanged without introducing oxygen. Spring-loaded check valves seal when
a filter is removed and open only when a new filter has been locked in place. There is no longer
a need for loosening and tightening fittings every time a trap is changed, and your system will
not get contaminated during the process. Also available are 2- or 3-position baseplates, you
can purify all GC gas streams at one location. Any combination is possible because any
Super-Clean filter cartridge can be used with any baseplate.

Gas Specific Purifier and
Containment Trap Purifiers
Purifiers/Filters
Gas specific purifier modules are designed to be placed in-line with

the Gas Chromatograph (GC) carrier gas supply or the GC detector
gas supply. There are three groups of contaminants that impact gas
chromatography: moisture, hydrocarbons and oxygen. The Gas
Specific Purifiers remove the three contaminant groups from analytical
gases prior to entering the GC. Proprietary absorptive materials
capture and retain contaminants for the operating life of the purifier.
The new gas specific purifier modules offer dramatic reductions in most
contaminant levels (from many parts per million to levels that are below
the lower limit of analytical detection) and absorb a larger number and
variety of contaminants than other competitive products. The performance is optimized by incorporating a multiple bed form so that each
successive bed functions at a lower contaminant concentration. The
result is a series of contaminant concentration gradients across the
length of the purifier module. When these advanced materials and
design features are combined with a known gas contaminant con-
centration, the following performance should be achieved.
Gas purifiers are designed to help insure the purity of your analytical
gases at the point of use. Even though you may be purchasing ultra-
high purity gases, your delivery system may be compromising the level
of gas purity you require. The best way to make sure your instruments
are receiving the highest level of gas purity is to utilize point of use
purification.
Inlet gas containing oxygen,

moisture and hydrocarbons
High purity
outlet gas
By combining several beds of specialized sorbent materials, a contaminant

gradient is formed across the entire length of the purifier. This successive
bed format achieves the highest purity gas commercially available.

Decrease Baseline Noise and Increase GC/MS Sensitivity

Reduce Gas lmpurities from High ppm to Low ppb Levels
The Ultimate Purification Technology
Designed to deliver gases

at the point of use that are
at least as pure as what was
purchased in the cylinder.
Point of use purification is
the best way to help insure
that your application is

Hydrocarbon Trap
The Model SG6130 Refillable Hydrocarbon Trap is designed to
remove trace levels of organics from carrier gases such as Helium,
Argon, Nitrogen, Hydrogen and Air. The Model SG6130 is packed
with a baked coconut shell based activated carbon to effectively
remove alcohols, aromatics, chlorinated hydrocarbons, ethers,
hydrocarbons, ketones, mercaptans, and organic acids.
Service life of these traps will vary depending on the incoming
hydro-carbon level in the carrier gas. However it is estimated that
1000 ft3 (3-4 cylinders) of carrier gas can be purified before the
absorbent needs replacing.

Service life of these traps will vary depending on the incoming Oxygen
level in the carrier gas. However, it is estimated that when the starting
Oxygen level is <10 ppm, the Model SG6160 can purify four cylinders
(1200 ft3) of carrier gas, while the Model SG6162 can typically purify
thirty-five cylinders (10,500 ft3) or more. We also recommend, where
the applications flow rates permit, using these traps upstream of our
SG6150 Series Indicating Oxygen Traps (below) to provide a visual
indication of Oxygen breakthrough, thus alerting of the need to
replace the trap.
These traps incorporate a highly reactive, metal reagent, which is

supported on an inert substrate, coupled with molecular sieves.
Oxygen is removed by chemical reaction with the reagent to form a
metal oxide. Oxygen levels can be effectively reduced to less than
5 ppb when starting levels are 10 ppm or less.

Glass Encased, Indicating Oxygen Traps
Models SG6150 and SG6151 Indicating Oxygen Traps are normally
recommended for use downstream of non-indicating oxygen traps
(where application flow rates permit) to provide a visual indication of
oxygen breakthrough. Breakthrough is indicated via a color change in
the adsorbent from gray to a deep brown. Because of their relatively
small capacity, Indicating Oxygen Traps should be used by themselves
only in low volume applications.

Molecular sieves are synthetically produced crystalline metal alumino

silicates that have been activated for adsorption by removing their
water of hydration. Unlike other adsorbents, molecular sieves have a
precise uniform size and molecular dimension. According to the size
of these pores, molecules may be readily adsorbed, slowly adsorbed
or completely excluded. This sieve-like selectivity, based on molecular
size, plus a selectable preference for polar or polorizable molecules,
gives molecular sieves an extremely high level of adsorption efficiency,
and permits close tailoring of the adsorbent to the specific use. Pore
sizes vary by the type of molecular sieve; for example, Type 4A has a
uniform pore size of 4 angstroms. Molecular sieves are available in a
variety of forms which include powder, pellets, mesh and beads:
Powders are white finely divided free-flowing particles with an
average diameter of 4-5 microns.
Pellets are cylindrically formed products whose diameters are
controlled (1/16" or 1/8" as specified).
Mesh are granular shaped products.
Beads are spherically shaped products.
Molecular sieves are

available in a variety of
package sizes from
1/2 lb up to 50 lb
Table 1 Common Screen Sizes and Openings
The sizes of both Mesh and Bead are specified jointly by the screen
sizes that the material will pass through and be retained by. For example, a 14 x 30 mesh product will pass through a 14 mesh screen, and
be retained by a 30 mesh screen. The following chart lists the screen
openings for some common screen sizes.

Cryogenic Products
Cooling and freezing of biological

materials is a complex process. This is
due to the chemical and physiological
process that takes place when material is cooled. Proper maintenance and
handling of biological materials is critical
to ensure their continued stability at low
temperatures. Since biological materials
vary, an important aspect of setting up
and operating an effective bio-repository
is an understanding of the materials to
be maintained. While biological materials can be preserved by several means,
low-temperature storage is the only
preservation method that minimizes
changes in the material. Cryopreservation has been used for decades to
ensure the maintenance of living cells
and organisms.
Cryopreservation Overview
Once biological materials are properly

cryo-preserved, there is virtually no risk
of change if they are properly maintained.
Proper maintenance requires assuring a
constant critical temperature.
From a good practice point of view, safety
margins and modes of failure are also important and very worthy of consideration.
Safety margins and critical temperatures are
vital considerations. Initially it is important to
realize that once a substance is in the solid
phase (i.e., frozen); there is no such thing,
in terms of cryobiology, as too cold. There is
no state below solid; further cooling simply
reduces the energy for every degree it is
cooled, otherwise it may cause structural
changes. Secondly, it is vital to appreciate
that the critical temperature for long term
viability of the sample will be, in many cases,
a temperature far below the nominal fusion
temperature. In other words, keeping the
sample frozen simply is not sufficient.
All biological materials deteriorate over time
this is an unavoidable physical phenomenon. When the need to study and/or store
biological materials arises, a long-term
reliable storage solution is needed; cryopreservation is the answer. When exploring
cryopreservation as a storage solution, many
factors must be considered, including, but
not limited to: Critical Temperature, Storage
Phase, and Capacity. MVE offers a complete
line of storage solutions in liquid or vapor,
with temperatures ranging from -125C to
-190C.
Understanding the materials to be stored is
vital to determining the critical temperature.
Most biological materials must be stored

below the Glass Transition of Water (Tg)
before long term degradation is minimized.
The value of Tg is most commonly agreed to
be between -130 C and -135 C. Storage
above this temperature will result in poor
long term viability of samples. Storage conditions that transition above and below this
value will accelerate degradation of samples.
Knowing this, one can make the conclusion
that colder is better. All MVE freezers are
created to maintain the coldest and most
consistent temperature in their designed
operating ranges. Many models can maintain near liquid nitrogen temperature in the
warmest part of the freezer, minimizing
transient temperature conditions.
Determining the phase of storage is nearly
as critical as determining the proper storage
temperature. Storing in liquid phase provides
the longest possible hold time and coldest
possible temperature. Vapor storage minimizes the possibility of cross contamination
and exposure of samples to liquid nitrogen.
MVE provides a complete line of freezers
that can meet any storage solution in liquid
or vapor.
Selecting the proper size freezer is important
to ensuring the long term efficiency and cost
effectiveness of the repository. MVE offers
the widest, most complete product line in
the world and can meet the needs of the
small research laboratory as well as the
largest long term repository. Praxair can help
you select a freezer that is large enough to
meet your current needs and provide room
for growth.

MVE High Efficiency/Vapor Series 150 and 190

There is a critical temperature for most biological samples that
are cryopreserved. This critical temperature is known as the Glass
Transition Temperature (Tg) of water, which is widely accepted as
being in the order of -130 to -135 C. The long-term viability of
frozen samples can be seriously compromised if stored above this
temperature range. Further, if they experience several transitions
through this range in either thermal direction, additional deterioration
may occur. It is important that the LN2 freezer maintain a lower
temperature, even during filling and sample retrieval cycles. This is
much more likely to be achieved if the freezer maintains a temperature
of -190 C than if the system is at or near the critical temperature at
normal equilibrium. Chart-MVEs approach to this problem was to
improve the fundamental design of freezers used in vapor phase and
to design and build a nitrogen vapor freezer which ensures stability
at -190 C.

MVE Stock Series

MVE Stock Series tanks are primarily designed for storage of
either vials or straws on canes in liquid nitrogen. The tanks
are built for long life, durability in service and ergonomic sample
retrieval, all of vital importance for this type of storage environment.
Dual lids on the MVE 1318 aid in sample removal while retaining
critical temperatures inside the storage area. The rotating sample
tray in the 1842P-150 allows for maximum storage space and
easy access. All MVE Stock units are built with an emphasis on
sample security and the ability to provide safe long-term storage
for your valuable samples.

MVE Vapor Shippers

MVE Vapor Shippers are designed for the safe transportation of
biological samples at cryogenic (-150 C or colder) temperatures.
Manufactured from durable, lightweight aluminum, they employ a
hydrophobic compound which absorbs the liquid nitrogen to ensure
spill-free shipping. Because the absorbent is hydrophobic, it also
repels moisture and humidity, assuring maximum holding time and
eliminating the necessity to dry units between uses.
A protective shipping carton is available for all models (except the

SC 20/12V). This carton protects the container from being placed
on its side and helps withstand the rigors of transportation. These
containers may be used to ship your samples with a non-hazardous
classification throughout the world, thus reducing costs and helping
to assure sample viability.

Liquid Nitrogen Low Level Alarms
Model 626
This unique controller has been designed to provide a complete
working alarm system. This alarm provides protection during
the time the probe is unplugged, or removed from the dewar.
When the probe is removed from the dewar during a work
function, simply press the work button. This will keep the alarm
in a momentary standby mode (approximately 10 minutes). If the
probe is not returned after 10 minutes, the alarm will slowly return
to its full audible horn and activate the remote relay.
The Progressive Audible Horn allows the operator to remove the
probe from the dewar without the unit going into an audible and
a remote relay alarm. Pressing the Work/Mute button will lower
the horn sound (which has been factory set). After 10 minutes
the horn will gradually increase to maximum volume. This will alert
the operator to place the probe back into the dewar, or press the
Work/Mute button again.

Comments
A
50-lb CO2 cylinder at room temperature

contains approximately 42-43 lbs. of
usable liquid CO2. The balance is vapor
that does not convert to solid dry ice.
Maximum yield of solid dry ice can be
obtained from 320 lb liquid CO2 cylinders.
This size is generally more economical
and provides optimum dry ice production.
Yield can be significantly increased
at lower temperatures (e.g., at 0 oF,
approximately 1/3 more blocks will be
produced).

Emergency Shutdown Systems

(ESS)
At Praxair, a commitment to safety is a critical
consideration in all of our activities. Helping
maintain a level of safety for our employees
and our customers is one of our top priorities. To help our customers achieve this goal,
we have developed a series of emergency
shutdown system controllers. These systems
can be used in a wide variety of applications
and are tailored to fit most applications.
A typical shutdown system can include
any of the components and configurations
shown below. We also can custom engineer
a system to meet your requirements.
The most common uses of these types
of systems include Toxic, Flammable and
Corrosive Gas and Liquid Services, where
the unintentional release of gas or liquid
could result in personnel injury or equipment
damage.
To find out more about Emergency
Shutdown Systems or to have one engineered to fit your specific needs, please

The 533 Series diaphragm valves are ideal for use as the primary
flow control in high purity or corrosive gas systems. Springless
design and low wetted surface area combine to minimize particle
generation and the completely swept path minimizes entrapment.
The unique design of the 533 Series allows low torque operation
with gas flow in either direction. Flow control is accomplished with
the multi-turn model while the 1/4 turn model is quick acting and
indicates on/off position.

Excess Flow Shut-off Valves
Diffusion-Resistant, Diaphragm Seal,

Excess Flow Shut-off Valves (FS Series)
FS Series Excess Flow Shut-Off Valves are designed to automatically shut-off the delivery of gas
in a line if the flow exceeds a preset limit. They are commonly used as a safety device to protect
a system from excess flow in the event of equipment failure or to protect personnel and property
in the event of a line rupture. The capability of operating from 10 to 3500 psi allows them to be
used either in high or low pressure applications.
FS Series
Valve
The Excess Flow Limit Valve is a 2-position valve. In the Open (Reset) position, the valve
provides a direct passage from inlet to outlet. In the other position, Auto Shut-Off, the valve is
set to sense the flow and automatically shuts off the passage if the flow exceeds a preset value
(flow limit). The valve will stay shut-off until it has been reset.
Six flow ranges are offered and the actual flow shut-off value for each range is dependent upon
the operating pressure. The graph below indicates, for each range, the relationship between
operating pressure and the actual flow limit. It is suggested that the range selected provide
shut-off at 2-6 times the anticipated flow rate to allow for short term flow surges not connected
with equipment failure.
Note: Piping systems, cylinders and other equipment can contribute rust or other
particulate contamination that could cause the device to fail. Therefore it is highly
recommended that all gases be filtered before they enter the FS Series Valve.
See pages F83 and F84 for additional information.

Check Valves and Relief Valves
CV5600 Series Check Valves

Check valves ensure that gases or liquids flow in one direction only. When used
on the outlet line of pressure regulators, they prevent back flow of fluids into the
regulator. When used in cylinder pigtails, they prevent gas flow from one cylinder
into another on the same manifold. They also stop air from entering the pigtail
and manifold when a cylinder is removed.
These check valves are bubble-tight against any back pressure.
Note: Check valves are also available housed within a CGA
connection see page F126 for additional information.

RV5571, RV5572, RV5580 Series Relief Valves

Relief valves are commonly used downstream of pressure regulators to protect
the regulator, delivery pressure gauge and downstream system from damage
due to overpressurization caused by a regulator failure. When properly installed
they may be used with hazardous gases because they have 14" NPT outlets
which permits vented gas to be piped to a safe disposal system.

Accessories
Pipe Fittings
Pipe fittings are typically used to join components together in a gas

handling system such as attaching a flowmeter to a regulator, or
installing a relief valve. They are also used in systems which have
been constructed using rigid pipe, as opposed to tubing.
The measurements specified in the Tables below conform to

National Pipe Thread (NPT) designations, and may be either female
(internal) type connections, or male (external) type connections
abbreviated as NPT(F) or NPT(M) accordingly. All pipe fittings
shown have a maximum operating pressure of at least 3000 psig.

Cylinder Connections
SSCGA580
Cylinder connections are used for connecting various items of gas handling
apparatus (such as pressure regulators or pigtails) directly to high pressure gas
cylinders. The actual connection varies depending on the gas in the cylinder and
is designated by a three digit code (CGA Connection Number) as set forth in
Compressed Gas Association publication V-1. Cylinder connections consist of a
CGA nut and CGA nipple and in some cases require a washer for sealing purposes.
Praxair offers cylinder connections in a variety of configurations and materials.
One configuration, available in either brass or type 316 stainless steel, features a
check valve housed within the CGA nipple. This configuration restricts flow to only
one direction, and prevents backflow from the process to the cylinder.
Also offered are special type 316L stainless steel cylinder connections which end
in a male vacuum-type face seal fitting for use in systems utilizing VCR or VCR
compatible type fittings.

Flash Arrestor
Series 8491 Flash Arrestor

The new 8491 Series re-settable flashback arrestors offer four (4)
safety devices in each unit. Safety features include protection against
flashbacks with a wide range of mixtures of oxygen or air with
flammable gases including hydrogen, acetylene, methane, and LPG
gases. The design includes a built-in non-return (check) valve to
stop reverse flow and a thermal shut off which stops gas flow in the
event a of hose or pipe line fire. An easily re-settable pressure control
stops gas flow in the event of reverse flow or a flashback that creates
10 psig back pressure. This feature alerts the user that a reverse flow
or a flashback of greater than 10 psig has occured. These units are
easily reset by pulling up on the pressure control ring (shown at right),
no disassembly of the gas line or special tools are needed. The 8491
Series high flow capacity makes them suitable for a broad range of
applications (see flow table). Units are U/L listed.

Model SG6500 Carbon Dioxide and Nitrous Oxide Gas Heaters

The Model SG6500 gas heater is designed for use with either carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide
to prevent regulator freeze-up under high flow conditions. Installed between the cylinder valve
and a suitable regulator, the heater warms the gas stream allowing for flow rates up to
160 scfh without regulator freeze-up.
The gas heater is thermostatically controlled at 160 oF to prevent overheating of the gas.
The heating element, encased in a polymeric body, efficiently radiates heat to the gas stream.
The outer jacket of the heater provides insulation to allow the operator to install or remove
the heater under warm conditions. The Model SG6500 Heater may be used in conjunction
with any regulator that is suitable for carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide use.

SFC/SFE Start-Up Kit

The carbon dioxide SFC/SFE start-up kit
developed by Praxair is designed to eliminate
the chance of contaminating the carbon
dioxide about to be used. The system was
kept very simple to eliminate the chances for
contamination. Special attention was given
to the components that come in contact with
carbon dioxide. Elastomers and polymers
have been eliminated which could degrade
or out gas deleterious components. To
further ensure the system integrity, the kit
is cleaned with super critical fluid carbon
dioxide. This delivery system is designed for
use in situations where the carbon dioxide
cylinder is within eight (8) feet of the instrument. For applications in which the cylinder
is further away, please consult your Praxair
representative for custom delivery systems.

MI9000 Moisture Indicator

The Model MI9000 indicator is used to
indicate the downstream presence of moisture in a gas line from the exhaustion of the
molecular sieve material in the Model 8000
and 8010 purifiers.
The indicator is constructed of brass and
has a sealed glass window. The unit is
furnished with indicating silica gel, which
gradually changes color from blue (at relative humidities less than 4%) to pink/white
(at relative humidities higher than 40%).
At this point the silica gel has absorbed the
maximum amount of water. The replaceable
indicator plug is easily removed and replaced with the indicator body still in line.

Overview
Gas Detection Equipment

In many industrial applications, hazards
can have several origins, e.g., the release
of toxic gases, oxygen deficiency or enrichment, as well as the presence of combustible gases and vapors. When detected at
an early stage, countermeasures can be
initiated to protect personnel, workplaces
and equipment.
The DrgerTubes are specifically calibrated

to the flow characteristics of the Draeger
pumps.
Praxair, working together with Draeger,

provides a full range of fixed and portable
monitoring and warning systems, for shortand long-term measurements, both for
area and personal monitoring.
The Draeger Chip-Measurement-System

(CMS) combines an electronic based analyzer with substance specific chips. Designed
for the measurement of more than 50 hazardous gases and vapors in the work place
environment, the Draeger CMS system
does not require calibration (specific information is stored on a bar code on each chip)
and a digital display provides the measurement results.
Portable Detection Systems
Fixed Gas Detection Systems
Draeger offers a wide range of portable gas

detection systems, from single to multiple
gas detectors, using electrochemical catalytic bead and infrared detectors. Draegers
X-am 2000, X-am 5000 and Pac 7000
monitors are the most popular. See pages
F133 - F141 for details.
The DrgerSensor electrochemical, catalytic combustion and infrared sensors are

the key elements of Draegers detector
transmitters and controllers. These intelligent
sensors can transmit information such as
alarm levels, calibration details, variation of
gas concentration and temperature.
Draegers new Accuro pump is the cornerstone of the DrgerTubes gas detection
system (see pages F139 and F140). Its lowmaintenance, one-handed operation provides quicker analysis and better accuracy.
Draegers detectors and analyzers/transmitters are designed to work independently

and/or feedback information to central
controllers housed in a safe working area.
They can detect over 300 gases using
DrgerSensor technology.
Most popular models include:

Draeger Polytron 2 XP Ex
for combustible gases and vapors

Single Point Gas
Detection Monitor
Draeger PointGard ll Single Point Gas Detection Monitor

The Draeger PointGard ll is a microprocessor-based stand-alone gas detector for
continuous monitoring of toxic gases and oxygen in ambient air. Gas concentration is
displayed using bright LEDs, while the horn and two strobes provide alarm annunciation
where it is needed most: at the point of the hazard.
The heart of the Draeger PointGard ll is the electrochemical DrgerSensor, the latest
development in gas sensing technology. The DrgerSensor is designed for accuracy,
stability, and long life. Temperature compensation has been optimized and cross sensitivity
to other gases minimized, ensuring an accurate reading of the target gas concentration.
Installation is easy: just mount the unit on a wall, install the sensor, and plug the line cord
into a 110 or 220 VAC outlet. Sensors are pre-calibrated before shipment, so calibration
is not necessary at start-up. The simple menu guided user interface can be accessed
through 3 buttons on the front panel of the instrument.

Portable Gas Monitors
Draeger CMS Gas Monitor

Accurate gas measurements are made
easier with the Draeger CMS. This new
generation of spot-check detection is literally
as easy as 1-2-3 to operate. Simply insert
the CMS Chip and follow the instructions
on the display as to when to move the slide
switch. TWA levels are typically analyzed
in 1-2 minutes. Upon completion of this
process, the concentration is indicated on
the LCD display. Every chip uses the exact
same procedure so training is minimal.
The system is based on Draegers 60+ years
of dry chemical reaction technology used in
DrgerTubes. However, the CMS includes
mass flow controllers to take a precise air
sample and the color change is measured
with a photoelectric eye eliminating any human interpretation or objectivity. Accuracies
of +/- 4 to 10% of measured values are
achieved for most gases and vapors.
is stored on a bar code on the CMS Chip.

An electronics and leak check is performed
before each measurement so you are assured of accurate indications every time.
Operating on 4 AA cells, the CMS will
deliver about 200 measurements per battery
change. An optional remote sampling system
makes the CMS an ideal choice for confined
space entry applications.
The on-board data-recorder stores up to
50 measurements with the gas/concentration
and date/time. The recorder can be set up
to record manually or automatically, and
previous measurements can be called up
on demand.
The CMS does not require gas calibration.

All measurement and calibration information
The CMS is currently used extensively

in the petrochemical, transportation, and
utilities industries as well as the fire service
and government regulatory agencies.
Popular applications include TWA screening, confined space entry and emergency
response.

DrgerTubes Gas Detector

The world has counted on DrgerTubes
more than any other gas and vapor measurement device to tell them when the air
is safe to breathe, to identify an unknown
hazard, or to check on process gases.
For more than 60 years, Draeger has been
the leader in detector tube technology with
more accurate measurements, a wider
range of gases and vapors measured, more
designs of tubes and more accessories to
meet specific gas and vapor measurement
applications.
F

tubes. Not only do you get the benefit of

quicker analysis, the larger sample volume
provides statistically better accuracy. Once
the sample is taken, the larger diameter
DrgerTubes and well spaced graduation
marks enable distinct and decisive measurement readings.
DrgerTubes
Gas Detector
Though many DrgerTubes require more

than one pump stroke, the sampling time is
usually faster than the advertised one-stroke
Reagents used in the DrgerTubes are

chosen to provide not only the most accurate, but also the most specific results.
Use of chemical pre-layers on many tubes
(like benzene) remove potentially interfering
gases (e.g. aromatic hydrocarbons) so you
only measure the targeted chemical, getting
only the results you want.
accuro Pump
accuro 2000 Pump
Quantimeter 1000 Pump
The cornerstone of the DrgerTubes system

is the accuro pump. It draws a calibrated
100 ml sample of air through the DrgerTubes with each stroke. The one-handed
operation is simple and allows you to reach
places that a piston pump can not go. A
built-in stroke counter tells you exactly how
many strokes have been taken. The visual
end-of-stroke indicator definitely identifies
the conclusion of a pump stroke.
The measuring ranges of various DrgerTubes can be extended to lower levels if

additional pump strokes are taken. The
accuro 2000 pump is an electronic pump
that can take up to 199 strokes.
For routine sampling or extending the

measuring ranges of various DrgerTubes
in atmospheres requiring an intrinsically safe
pump, the Quantimeter is the best choice.
It provides up to 1,000 strokes using a rechargeable battery. Up to 199 strokes can
be programmed into the unit.

Universal Leak Detector
The Series 755 is considered a universal

leak detector specially engineered to
perform superbly in both portable and
benchtop applications. It is designed to
both locate and measure a wide variety
of gas leaks precisely and cleanly.
Gas Detected
The Series 755 will detect any gas that
has a thermal conductivity that differs from
that of the ambient air to which it is zeroed.
Since the unit is zeroed in ambient air
(which is comprised mostly of nitrogen
and oxygen), the series 755 will not be
very sensitive to leaks of these gases.

Material Safety Data Sheets
Personal Protective Equipment
A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is a

fact sheet that lists the characteristics and
hazards of a specific hazardous indutrial
material. MSDSs tell how to handle, store,
and ship the material safely and in acordance with regulations. They also give emergency and first aid procedures for dealing
with injuries, fires, leaks, spills, and other
incidents involving the material. Praxair
MSDSs also provide additional information
such as ratings under various hazard identification systems, listing by certain states,
and valve connection data.
The type of personal protective equipment

required at a particular location depends
on the products handled at that location.
For personal protective equipment recommendations, read the MSDS for each
product handled at your location. Personal
protective equipment, available from local
safety equipment suppliers, should be
selected in accordance with standards
established by OSHA or NIOSH.
Under the OSHA Hazard Communication

Standard, manufacturers of hazardous
materials must prepare and make available
an MSDS for each hazardous material sold.
In addition, those purchasing these materials
must maintain a file of MSDSs in the work
place so they are available to their
employees.
External Inspection
Personnel responsible for receiving cylinders
and containers should perform an external
inspection on all packages before moving
them to the point of use or to the storage
area. Basic guidelines for performing this
inspection are as follows:
Precautionary information on the safe

handling of gases listed in this catalog is
provided on Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS), which are issued to customers
for each product sold.
We strongly urge you to read and thoroughly
understand the information contained in the
applicable MSDS before using any of the
gases in this catalog.
Copies of MSDSs can be obtained thru
your Sales Representative, by calling Praxair
at 1-800-PRAXAIR or visiting our website at
www.praxair.com/msds.
Receiving Cylinders and

Containers
Read the cylinder labels to be sure that

the gas is what you ordered and that you
understand the hazards associated with
the product. Remember, the label is the
only means of identifying the product in
the cylinder. Never identify the product
by the color of the cylinder.
Check the TC/DOT cylinder markings
to be sure you understand the pres-
sures contained in the cylinders.
Thoroughly inspect the cylinders for any
obvious damage. The cylinder surface
should be clean and free from defects
such as cuts, gouges, burns and obvi-
ous dents. Such damage could weaken
the cylinder metal, creating a danger of
failure, or it could make the cylinder
unstable and more likely to tip over.
Make sure the cylinder stands steady on

its base and does not wobble.
Cylinders with neck threads should have
a cap in place over the valve. Remove the
cap by hand. Never use a screw driver,
crowbar, or other leverage device to
remove the cap. You could accidentally
open the valve or damage it.
Check the cylinder valve to be sure it is
not bent or damaged. A damaged valve
could leak or fail, or it might not make a
tight connection when the cylinder is
placed into use. Make sure the valve is
free of dirt and oil, which could contami nate the gas. Dirt particles propelled in a
high-velocity gas stream could cause a
spark, igniting a flammable gas. Oil and
grease can react with oxygen and other
oxidizers, causing an explosion.
If any cylinder is received with missing
or unreadable labels and markings; visible
damage; an unstable base; a missing cap;
or a bent, damaged, or dirty valve, do not
use the cylinder. Contact your supplier
and ask for instructions.
Testing for Leaks

After completing the external inspection,
proceed as follows:
Test the cylinder valve for leaks using

the leak test method approved by your
employer. If you detect leakage, follow
your employers procedures for handling
leaking cylinders.
Note: It is normal for cryogenic liquid

containers to vent through their relief valves
to relieve excess pressure build up due to
heat leak. This venting is not a leak.
If no leakage is detected, secure the
cylinder valve cap in place before
moving the cylinder to the point of
use or to the storage area.
Chemmate Gas Mixture MSDS Program

Praxair customers are the first in North America to be able to find what they
need to know about their customized, multi-component gas mixtures on a
single, stand-alone MSDS document. This new, value-added service offers a
big safety advantage for customers. Generated by the new Chemmate gas
mixture MSDS program, data from each component of the gas mixture is
distilled and combined into a government-approved, standardized, 16-part
form (ANSI Z400) for that mixture.
To date, Praxair has created more than 700 custom MSDSs that cover over
500,000 mixtures available from Praxair. MSDSs for mixtures can be generated
upon request. Contact your Praxair representative for more information.

Safety
Moving Cylinders and Containers

Cylinders and containers must always be
moved carefully. Mishandling that results in
a damaged valve or ruptured cylinder can
expose personnel to the hazards associated with these gases. In addition, most gas
cylinders are heavy and bulky. A cylinder
striking someone or pinching a finger, toe,
or other extremity is a common cause of
injury. For these reasons, all cylinder handlers must always wear certain minimum
personal protective equipment prescribed
by OSHA:

Gloves to protect the hands against

common pinching injuries.
Safety glasses to protect the eyes
against injuries associated with
pressure release.
Safety shoes with metatarsal
supports to protect against foot
injuries from falling cylinders.
Before moving a cylinder to the storage

area or point of use or before returning
the cylinder to the supplier, ensure the
following:

The outlet valve is fully closed.

The outlet valve dust plug or pressure
cap is on tight for cylinders equipped
with these protection devices.
The valve protection cap is properly
secured in place on cylinders with
neck threads.
While moving full or empty cylinders:

Always use carts or hand trucks
designed for this purpose.
Never drop cylinders or allow them
to strike each other violently.
Never lift cylinders by the cap or
with a lifting magnet.

After moving a cylinder to its point of use,

secure the cylinder in place. Use cylinder
stands, clamps, or other securing devices
recommended by your supplier.
Note: Valve caps must always be in place

while moving or transporting cylinders or
when they are in storage.
Storing Cylinders and Containers
G
2
Storage of compressed gas cylinders and

cryogenic liquid containers is governed
by codes of the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA). Local codes may also
apply. Know and obey codes governing
storage at your location.
Safe Practices
In general, store cylinders so they cant be
easily toppled over. Remember, danger
exists not only from accidental release of
gas by cylinders damaged in a fall but also
from their striking someone and causing
injury. Store cylinders upright in compact
groups, interlocking them so that each
cylinder physically contacts those around
it. Do not stand cylinders loosely or in a
haphazard manner.
1-877-PRAXAIR
A single cylinder that topples over can

create a domino effect causing other
cylinders to fall. Single cylinders should be
secured in place or on a cylinder cart so
they cant be readily knocked over.
Keep stored cylinders out of high traffic
areas. Do not store them near the edges
of platforms. Avoid storage in areas where
there are activities that could damage or
contaminate the cylinders. Electric arc
welding can destroy the integrity of cylinder metal if a welder carelessly strikes an
arc on a cylinder. Overhead hoists can drip
oil or grease on cylinders, contaminating
them. Never store cylinders with flammable materials.
Refer to Section F for our full line of safety
apparatus (pages F145-F149) and gas
detection systems (pages F133-F144).

F145-149 for Praxair
Safety Apparatus
Safety
Opening and Closing Valves

Observing a few simple rules when
opening and closing valves can prevent
damage to valves and equipment and add
years of useful service life to the valves.
The proper way to open any cylinder
valve is to first crack the valve, then open
it slowly by turning the handle or stem
counterclockwise. This allows equipment
to gradually adjust to full pressure. Stop
turning as soon as there is any resistance.
Turning the valve handle or stem too far in
the open position can jam the stem causing damage and leaks and preventing
later closure.
Likewise, overtightening when closing

a valve can damage or permanently
distort the seat and result in leakage.
Typical closing torques are as follows:
Packed Stem Valve
30 to 40 ft-lb
Diaphragm Seal Valve
85 to 96 in-lb
Pressure Seal Valve
60 to 85 in-lb
Pin-Indexed Valve
20 to 25 in-lb
Caution: Never open a cylinder

valve that is not connected to a
pressure regulating device.

CGA Number Cylinder/container valve outlet
connection number assigned by the Compressed
Gas Association. CGA numbers are detailed in
CGA Standard V-1.
Chemical Abstract Services (CAS)
CAS numbers represent chemical substances
recorded in the CAS Chemical Registry System.
This numbering system identifies chemical substances by an unambiguous computer language
description of its molecular structure, including all
stereo-chemical detail. The CAS number, which
has no chemical significance, is simply a number
assigned in sequential order to each substance
as it enters the Registry System. All specific
substances reported in the worlds scientific
and technical literature and indexed in Chemical
Abstracts, (CA) since 1965 (when the Registry
System began) are included in this master file.
Chemiluminescence A species which
chemically absorbs and emits light (usually
at low temperatures).
Chromatogram The record produced by the
gas liquid chromatograph. It is also a measure of
instrument performance.
Coefficient of Flow (Cv) Defined as the
actual flow performance in U.S. gallons of water
per minute at 60 F when inlet pressure (P1) is
1 psig and outlet pressure (P2) is atmospheric
(14.7 psia).
Column Part of the gas chromatography
system where the separation of the sample
takes place (can be packed or capillary).
Combustion An exothermic oxidation reaction
which may occur with any organic compound,
as well as with certain elements.
Compressed Gas (1) A gas or mixture of

gases having, in a container, an absolute pressure
exceeding 40 psi at 70 F; or (2) a gas or mixture
of gases having, in a container, an absolute pressure exceeding 104 psi at 130 F regardless of the
pressure at 70 F or (3) a liquid flammable material
having a vapor pressure exceeding 40 psi at 100 F
as determined by ASTM D-323-72.
Compressed Gas Association (CGA)
This is a nonprofit technical association whose
membership includes many corporations active
in all phases of the compressed gas industries.
Founded in 1913, the CGA uses experience and
knowledge of its members to promote industry
wide standards and procedures for safety in the
manufacture, storage, transport and use of
compressed gases.
Corrosive The ability of a chemical compound to
attack and produce irreversible damage to human
tissues, such as eyes, skin or mucous membranes.
Also, the ability of a chemical com-pound to attack
and eat away rubber, metal and other substances.
Cracking Pressure A term used in back
pressure control only (e.g., back pressure
regulators, relief valves), for determining the
inlet pressure at which flow starts.
Creep Any increase in outlet pressure of
a pressure regulator subsequent to lockup.
Usually seen as a long term slow pressure
increase. This generally indicates a seat leak
which is an abnormal condition.
Critical Density The density of a pure material
at its critical temperature and critical pressure.
Critical Point The transition point at which the
liquid and gaseous states of a substance merge
into each other. It is the temperature above which
a substance cannot exist in two phases, no matter
how great the pressure. See also Critical
Temperature and Critical Pressure.
Critical Pressure At the critical temperature,
the highest pressure at which a pure material can
