New Range of Regulators and Gas Handling Equipment

Air Liquide has launched an offer of a wide range of equipment for use with pure and mixed gases for the UK Laboratory market. These products are already well established across Europe as a high quality, reliable range for use on analytical processes.

The range of products will include Cylinder Manifolds, Wall mounted network supply modules including pressure regulation, a variety of different cylinder mounted regulators, manual control and isolation valves and point of use units.

All the equipment is designed for high-purity and special gas service use. Features include: anti-contamination treated internal walls, reduced dead space, joints that are welded end-to-end or modular/free from rotating parts. In addition all equipment will be available with BS fittings as standard for the UK market, although the option of DIN fittings will be available.

All ALPHAGAZ? equipment for pure gases and mixtures is helium leak-tested with a mass spectrometer to: 3.10-7 to 10-9 mbar.l.s of helium for ALPHAGAZ? 2, and 10-6 mbar.l.s of helium for ALPHAGAZ? 1 applications. Equipment will be supplied bagged and with test documentation. Delivery of the regulators is managed from a central warehouse, and for standard items it is expected that delivery should be within the week.

This offer compliments the range of Alphagaz cylinder gases and customers can come to Air Liquide for a complete offer covering gases through to equipment and installations. To coincide with the launch of this equipment range at the end of September 2006, Air Liquide UK will be producing a complimentary equipment catalogue to provide an introduction to the products and an aid to selection Alphagaz Equipment for your laboratory.
