Argon bottle pressure... - Miller Welding Discussion Forums
Argon pressure Hi blazehaze69, I use 336 cu ft tank and a full tank is about 2500 psi. I stop tig welding when it gets to about 100 psi just to be safe for my welds and also to make sure I bring back the tank with positive pressure to prevent possible contamination for the next fill cycle.
Argon bottle standing or on its side? - Miller Welding Discussion …
2017年2月28日 · Obviously welding out of a pickup bed is less desirable that off a flatbed, but I haven't got around to building a flatbed yet. I am trying to organize the space and I'm wondering if I can get input on whether or not an argon bottle can be laid on its side when used or if it has to be upright. I would appreciate any insight on this.
Can Argon Gas Bottles Be Stored Horizontal
Can our Argon welding gas bottles be stored horizontally? Our new supplier of E size bottles dropped off their first one on Friday. I tried to install over the weekend but quickly discovered that their bottles are 100mm or 4" to tall to fit under my welding bench like the old bottles do. The only way now is to lay it down on the floor.
Argon Bottle Question - Miller Welding Discussion Forums
Bottle that have PURE gas, like Oxygen, CO2, C25 Argon/CO2, yep, you can get away with using them laying on their side. REMEMBER, if your acetylene bottle has been laying down, it should be stood vertical at least 30 minutes prior to use. Just Safety rule of thumb.
laying bottle on its side - Miller Welding Discussion Forums
accetilean is suspended in a acetome liquid withing a honnycone type bottle incert. the accetilean seaps out of the acetone rising to the top to be used. it can only dispers at a certin rate, thats why you have to have a large tank to use a rosebud or for heavy useages. it is also why you need to let it settle after its been layed down. the Co2 ...
pressure of full 125cf argon cylinder? - Miller Welding Discussion …
Since pressure varies by temperature, the real way to measure how full a bottle is, is by weight. According to Google: Argon: 1.78400 (g / l) = 0.111371482 pounds / (cu ft) So 120 cu ft should add 13.36 lbs. And then if you really care (roughly): pressure x …
Gas transfer between cylinders - Miller Welding Discussion Forums
I do own a 80cf bottle and AirGas will not fill it or replace it as they are not in the business of smaller bottles. So I lease a 330cf cylinder for $50 per year and $80 to fill. No one here will sell a 330cf tank, they are all leased. I originally went to Air Liquid when I started welding (8 months ago) and they wanted the $80 for 80cf (argon).
How long should a tank of argon last?
Your bottle will be rated a certain "cubic feet" volume. That bottles useful life per fill is directly proportional to the amount of flow you have set at the regulator. If you have an 80cf bottle of gas, and you're regulating it to 10cf/h, then that bottle will last …
contaminated argon - Miller Welding Discussion Forums
2012年11月27日 · For starters, you are using the wrong gas. You should be using 100% Argon on aluminum. Next, I have had 4 or 5 contaminated bottles of Argon. Once bad, the rest was bad. Griff Correction; I saw 75/25 and immediately read "argon/CO2" instead of …
Transporting Tanks - Miller Welding Discussion Forums
Gas bottles (Oxygen, Argon, etc) are ok in any position, but acetylene is better vertical due to the filler. In most of the US, regulations require that all tanks be secured so that they can not move, and many states require all tanks be transported vertical, valve …
