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 and help reduce costs.
Escaping helium vapor is used to
cool the system, avoiding the need
for cooling with nitrogen and the
subsequent cost and potentially
harmful release in an enclosed area.
Light weight for easier lifting

and moving.
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.

Cryogenic Monitoring System
Praxairs StarWatch Cryogenic Monitoring System

The StarWatch Cryogenic Monitoring System available
exclusively from Praxair provides a clear digital read-out of
the liquid level and pressure in your dewar and alerts you with
an audio and visual alarm when your supply runs low. The
capacitance-based measurement of the StarWatch system
provides a leap forward in reliability and accuracy versus
conventional float gauges.
When the StarWatch system detects the dewar supply to be

at or below your alarm levels, the corresponding conditions are
displayed on the LCD, and the audiovisual alarms are activated
until acknowledged by the user with a single push of a button.
When a new low alarm condition is met, corresponding displays
and alarms are activated again. Low and critically low alarms
have distinct frequencies, so you can quickly assess your dewar
and take action as necessary. The StarWatch system offers
options to disable either the alarms alone or the measurements
and alarms together during periods of process inactivity.

Mixture Safety and Quality
Mixture Grades and Specifications
Safety and quality considerations limit the mixtures

we can offer among these are:
Praxair mixtures are grouped into two basic

categories, environmental and standard. Please
refer to the table on page C92 for complete
specifications of all available grades.
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 determine 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 determination
of appropriate pressures.
Where applicable, Praxair may recommend low-pressure

containers to maximize the volume of contents. Refer to
page A12 for details.
Reactive Gas Mixtures

Mixture stability is assessed to help ensure 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 accuracy 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 page A11 for details on aluminum
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.
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 high-precision, electronic balances or
using dynamic blenders.
The accuracy from these methods may exceed the accuracy of most analytical instruments. Praxair produces three
grades within the Master grade 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 more economical Non-Certified grade is
suitable for applications that do not require analytical
certification.
If your requirements call for specifications that fall outside
of these defined grades, a custom standard will include the
exact specifications you need.

Overview
A Lifeline for the

Commercial
Diving Industry
Praxair is a leading worldwide supplier of helium and other

gases. Praxair began supplying helium/oxygen breathing
mixtures for offshore oil field diving over 40 years ago.
Decades of experience, combined with a global diving gases
supply and distribution network, are two key reasons why
the commercial diving industry breathes easier with Praxair.
For pure helium or gas mixtures, in tube modules or in
cylinder packs, Praxair has the know-how and resources
to provide a reliable supply for your dive operations, today
and tomorrow.
Supplying the Demand

Diving operations rely on Praxair for helium, helium/oxygen,
oxygen and nitrogen/oxygen mixtures. We meet customers
needs through a wide variety of supply systems that provide
our quality gases and mixtures.
1-877-PRAXAIR
Whatever gas or supply option you choose, your diving

gases will be mixed to meet your specifications. Praxair
operates one of the worlds largest gas blenders at our
Louisiana facility. This enhances the speed and accuracy
of our gas-mixing operation and also provides supply gas
mixtures on very short notice to offshore diving activity in
the Gulf of Mexico and nearby locations.
Safety and Quality Commitment

Mobile Source Emissions Standards

A wide range of high purity gases and calibration standards,
blended to the manufacturers exacting specifications,
are available.
Federal, Provincial and State vehicle emission regulations

require certification of tailpipe emissions to prescribed
levels. These regulations mainly deal with in-use certification
for currently owned and licensed on-road vehicles.
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.
High pressure precision gas mixtures, in various

concentrations, are also supplied to original equipment
manufacturers for new engine certification of internal
combustion engines (ICE).

NIST Traceable Reference 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.
EPA Protocol gas mixtures are required for the monitoring

of emissions from stationary sources and are used for the
calibration and Relative Accuracy Test Audit (RATA) of
Continuous Emission Monitors (CEMs) as specified under
EPA 600/R-12/531.
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.
Certified analytical uncertainty of 1% is possible for
Praxair EPA Protocols are NIST traceable with a 1%

accuracy, produced in accordance with the latest EPA
specifications. The benefits to you include:

Multiple production facilities and stocking locations

to help ensure an uninterrupted supply of Protocol
standards.
Standards that are labeled and supplied with complete
documentation required to help ensure compliance.
Praxairs cylinder treatment process is designed to
provide maximum allowed shelf life within the stated
analytical uncertainty. (Please see page D162 for
certification periods).
Praxair maintains a complete range of NIST Standard
Reference Materials (SRMs) and NIST Traceable
Reference Materials (NTRMs).
Environmental
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.

Important Things to Know

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 recertification, acceptable cylinders may
have extended certifications.
Some mixtures may not be available due to critical

mixture limitations, safety considerations or SRM
availability.
Analytical uncertainty for certain mixture components
and concentrations may vary. The actual analytical
uncertainty will be specified on the Certificate of
Analysis.
D162
1-877-PRAXAIR
Trace concentrations of other pollutants in the mixture

can be certified on request.
For CEM zero grade gas products for Air (see pages
B24 and D163) and Nitrogen (see pages B65 and
D163).
Other mixture components or concentrations may be
available, please inquire.
Certification periods apply only to mixtures in aluminum
containers.

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.

Overview
The Praxair Food Technology Lab
Food Freezing and Chilling
At Praxair, our Food Technologies Lab provides our

customers with the best-fit technology tailored to meet
specific food freezing and processing needs. And while our
methods are advanced, our goal is very simple: to help you
deliver high quality food and beverage products to your
customers.
Food freezing/cooling/chilling is the process of using direct

contact of a cryogen to control or adjust temperature to a
frozen or chilled state. Both inline and batch type freezing
equipment can be designed to use carbon dioxide or
nitrogen to freeze, cool or chill the food. The speed of
cryogenic refrigeration helps prevent product degradation,
the product retains natural juices and color, and dehydration
is drastically reduced.
In our Food Technologies Lab, we can analyze your process

and provide you with recommendations on how to improve
the quality and consistency of your product. Our lab is a
full-time facility that has been in operation for over 30 years.
Our experienced and dedicated technicians make their
recommendations based on their expertise and the
evaluation of data collected from thousands of tests on
actual food products, in-lab thermal analyses and product
testing on production-scale equipment. We will collect data
on the thermal characteristics of your product, determine
parameters for your freezing and chilling equipment, show
what your product looks and tastes like after freezing,
and recommend ways to better meet your goals. We are
equipped to answer your most difficult product and processing questions so that you can optimize your system.
So whether its maximizing yield, boosting production or
perfecting your finished product, our experts are ready to
help with a customized assessment of your operation.
Almost any food product, (e.g., meat, chicken, fish, dairy,

bakery, prepared foods, fruit, vegetables, etc.) can benefit
from cooling or freezing, depending on the customers needs.
Freezing is generally regarded as a food preservation
technique. A customer considers freezing or chilling a food
product to obtain higher quality products, extend shelf life,
expand the distribution area, and make product handling
easier.
The consequences of not achieving the desired final
temperature include:
n
n
n
n
Product handling problems

Non-compliance with quality assurance (QA)
specifications or government regulations
Shorter shelf life or reduced product quality
Supplemental freezing
Proper temperature control (cryogenic freezing or chilling)

can greatly reduce (or slow) the loss of food product quality
caused by bacteria growth, staling, oxidation and mold
growth. This application also can overcome mechanical
handling problems encountered in processes like packaging,
slicing, dicing and other processing.
What is cryogenic freezing?
Freezing is a change in the physical state of a food product
when energy, in the form of heat, is removed, changing the
water in the food from the liquid state to a solid state.
Food
Praxair specializes in cryogenic freezing using nitrogen or

carbon dioxide at low temperatures to quickly freeze food
products locking in moisture and product quality.
What is cryogenic chilling?
Cryogenic chilling is the removal of heat from raw and fresh
processed foods, cooked or baked foods, and produce at
ambient temperatures. Quickly cooling food products is an
important step to ensure food safety and improve overall
yield.
Praxair specializes in rapid chilling using liquid carbon
dioxide and employs innovative new applications using
liquid nitrogen.

Overview
Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP)
Praxairs 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 requirements
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.
Most importantly, MAP does not eliminate or reduce the
processors responsibility for good 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.

The 500 Series regulators are for use with transportable D(34A),
D(58), D(76) and D(103) (34, 58, 76 and 103 liter) non-refillable
cylinders. These single stage, piston style regulators are designed
for non-corrosive gas service and have proven to be satisfactory
for use with low level corrosive gases (less than 100 ppm)*.
The control valve permits constant gas flow and easy on/off
capability. Each regulator comes with a cylinder pressure gauge
and is available in seven preset flow ranges. This series of
regulators is for use with non-refillable cylinders using a 5/8"
1/8 UNF C-10 valve.
* Low level corrosive gases slowly react with the wetted brass parts
of the 500 Series regulators. In order to minimize loss of calibration
accuracy, the regulator must be removed from the cylinder after each
use. The 6000 Series regulator (page D189) is recommended for
extended use with corrosive gas calibration standards.

The 8000 Series pressure demand regulators are for use with
transportable D(58) and D(103) (58 and 103 liter) non-refillable
cylinders and can be configured for use with refillable cylinders.
This regulator is designed to automatically provide the correct
flow of gas to instruments that have internal pumps for introducing calibration gas into the instrument. Typical activation suction
is from 0 to 3 inches of water, which conveniently matches the
requirements for the many different portable gas monitors on
the market. The 8000 Series can be configured for cylinders
with supply pressures of 500 psig to 1000 psig. The body of the
regulator is nickel plated brass, has an aluminum bonnet and
features Viton as the seating material for reactive gases. The
aluminum and nickel plated brass are compatible with a wide
range of pure gases and mixtures, including hydrogen sulfide,
nitric oxide and sulfur dioxide. This regulator features an outlet
fitting which is a 3/16" hose barb.

Application Note:
Helium and Hydrogen Carrier Gases for Gas Chromatography
Helium and hydrogen are the most common carrier gases
used for gas chromatography applications. These two gases
deliver similar optimum achievable separation efficiencies
(theoretical plates). Hydrogen offers advantages versus
helium in having a higher and broader range of linear
velocities for which near-optimum separation efficiency can
be achieved, especially for applications requiring longer
columns (higher inlet pressures). The higher linear velocities
available to hydrogen enable significant potential reductions in analysis time. Unlike inert helium, hydrogen has the
potential to react with some analytes; such reactions are
uncommon under normal gas chromatography conditions.
Users should note that conversion from one carrier gas to
1-877-PRAXAIR
another can involve significant changes to standard operating procedures. In executing a conversion from helium to
hydrogen, one must consider not only compatibility of the
gas chromatograph but also the associated plumbing and
connected components (e.g., filters or mass spectrometer).
Hydrogen presents flammability and asphyxiation hazards,
and appropriate safety precautions should be taken in
accordance with careful risk assessment when working with
hydrogen in a lab. Helium is typically supplied via cylinders,
while hydrogen can be supplied via cylinders or on-site
generators. With decades of experience in supplying gases
for analytical instruments, Praxair is prepared to help users
identify and move forward their preferred best gas solutions
for their particular applications.

Application Note:
Using Argon with ICP
Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is a popular means of
preparing analytes for atomic emission spectrometry (ICPAES) and mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). In both methods,
the high temperature, ionizing environment of the plasma
converts analyte molecules into excited-state atoms and
ions. AES methods identify and quantify elements in the
analyte on the basis of the electromagnetic radiation emitted
by the excited-state species, while MS methods separate
and quantify the ions on the basis of their mass-to-charge
ratio. Argon is almost always used as the plasma gas for
ICP applications. High purity argon is required to sustain
a robust plasma, prevent instrument contamination, and
avoid interferences with analytes. Praxair offers a variety
D216
1-877-PRAXAIR
of argon grades to meet the requirements of most instruments; the AR4.8IC grade is most commonly used. Argon
is purified from atmospheric air and may contain trace
levels of krypton, which can interfere with ICP-MS analyses
for selenium and strontium. Argon flow rates for ICP often
exceed 10 liters per minute, making these applications good
candidates for cryogenic liquid supply options. Liquid supply
via dewars or microbulk can reduce unit costs and disruptions associated with changing cylinders. Cylinders better
preserve product and lab space when ICP instrument usage
is infrequent. Praxair can help ICP users choose the right
grades and supply options for their needs.

LaserStar Resonator Gases

Lasers must be protected from moisture, hydrocarbons,
and other contaminants that can be introduced into the
resonator by the gas supply system. These impurities
may reduce laser productivity and power, create unstable
operating characteristics, may cause damage to expensive optics, and may contribute to costly down time. Using
Praxairs LaserStar Resonator gases can add years to the
CO2 laser resonator life and reduce maintenance expense.
LaserStar 5.0 resonator gas is available as a 99.999% pure
gas or pre-blended mixtures of helium, nitrogen, carbon
dioxide and when required, hydrogen and is five times
cleaner than the industry standard laser resonator gas.
Praxairs patented LaserStar 5.5 resonator gas is available
as 99.9995% pure or pre-blended mixtures and is ten times
cleaner than the industry standard resonator gas. It would
take 20 cylinders of LaserStar 5.5 resonator gas to deliver
the same level of contaminants in just two of the industry
standard resonator gas.

Improve Laser Efficiency and Performance

with Praxairs Laser Inspection
Its easy to see and determine if your mechanical metal
cutting tools are sharp, however, your laser is more
challenging since the cutting beam is invisible. But how
do you know if your laser is as effective as it could be?
Praxairs Laser Inspection can help.
With Praxairs Laser Inspection, several output aspects of
your laser will be examined, such as beam power at the
work piece versus the power produced in the resonator and
beam shape.
We also review your laser gas delivery system, which

has proven to reduce gas expense and extend laser component service life. This combination provides a recipe of
continuous performance, while minimizing laser downtime.
The inspection is non-invasive and only takes 20-60
minutes. Once the testing is complete, youll be able
to view a computer-generated report that will give you
an instantaneous diagnosis of the beam and a clear
explanation of what part of the beam is out of spec.

Analyzing the balance of shape and power
Power The Praxair Laser Inspection looks at the power
delivered to the work piece and compares it to the power
developed in the resonator. If your output coupler, mirrors
and focusing lens are performing normally, the wattage
developed in the resonator should be wattage delivered
to the work piece.
Shape: Beam shape is defined in a three dimensional,
computer-generated graphic, and displays the beam
ellipticity, height, average diameter and intensity. A
compromised shape will cause the laser cutting speed
to diminish, while increasing dross on your parts, labor,
power and gas expenses.

Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is a

powerful analytical technique that combines the broadly
applicable separation capabilities of LC with the outstanding
identification and quantification capabilities of MS. LC-MS
has become a standard technique in the life sciences and
healthcare for its particular capability to handle non-volatile
and thermally labile species (e.g, proteins). Nitrogen gas
plays a key role in coupling the LC and MS methods by
assisting nebulization and drying of the liquid fractions eluted
from LC so they can be ionized for MS analysis. The high
flow of nitrogen gas required for this application typically
1-877-PRAXAIR
warrants a cryogenic liquid supply source. Most commonly,

LC-MS users employ liquid dewars or microbulk systems.
Membrane systems producing nitrogen on-site from a
compressed air source have become another popular
option. Praxair offers a comprehensive suite of nitrogen
supply methods and works with LC-MS users to select the
optimum supply mode depending on their situation and
needs. Praxair analyzes various factors, including type and
number of instruments, facility location and layout, and
instrument usage levels along with user concerns about
productivity, cost, and reliability.

Regulator Summary
Critical Purity 4000 Series Regulators

These stainless steel and brass regulators are recommended
where purity and contamination requirements are 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 non-corrosive service.

your needs using the selection and reference guidelines. If you
have any questions, contact your local Praxair Specialty Gases
representative or Customer Service Center.
Regulators
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 B, Pure Gases or Section C, 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 G423 - G425.
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 offering 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 nonadjustable 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.
E242
1-877-PRAXAIR
8 Other Considerations
Other criteria for consideration include operating temperature,
flow requirements, regulatory issues (e.g. medical regulators
meeting FDA regulatory 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
How to Order Praxair Regulators

A
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.
To complete the part number matrix, consult the Regulator

Summary and Reference Guide on page E241. 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 B). 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 E241 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.
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.
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).
Example
When using the table below to order a 4000 Series 316L
stainless steel, single stage cylinder regulator with an
(A) outlet pressure range of 0-50 psig, a (B) 0-4000 psig
inlet pressure gauge, a (C) diaphragm valve with a 1/4" tube
fitting, (D) psi/kPa pressure gauges, and a (CGA) CGA 580
connection for nitrogen service, the part number would be
PRS40222331-580 (see page E248).

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.

Critical Purity Automatic Switchovers for Non-Corrosive and Corrosive Service
5022 and 5023 Critical Purity Switchover

The 5022 (Brass) and 5023 (316 Stainless Steel) Series high purity
automatic switchover systems are designed to provide continuous
supply of high purity gases to the laboratory, process or instrument.
The system automatically changes cylinder or bank priority from
primary to reserve with no fluctuation in line pressure to provide a
continuous, uninterrupted supply of gas to the process, laboratory
or instrument. Each system may be ordered with internal pressure
switches and a power supply/remote alarm to provide both local
and remote indication of bank status. For use with flammable gases
or in hazardous locations (class 1, division 1, groups A, B, C, or D)
optional intrinsic safety barriers are available. A second option is a
telephone dialer which will signal when a bank is empty. For handling
toxic or poisonous gases, the 5023 Series is available with optional
captured venting.

Critical Purity Automatic Switchovers for Non-Corrosive and Corrosive Service
Critical Purity Switchover

The 5026 (Brass) and 5027 (316 Stainless Steel) Series high
purity automatic switchover systems are designed to provide
continuous supply of high purity gases to the laboratory, process
or instrument. Due to pressure differential considerations, a line
regulator is recommended downstream of the system. The
5026/5027 Series may be ordered with the line regulator
installed at the outlet or the line regulator may be ordered
separately for downstream point of use installation. Typically
the 5026/5027 Series are used with one cylinder per side. To
connect more than one cylinder per side, please order manifold
headers separately (see page E296). 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 the gland to prevent contamination and
minimize purging requirements.

The 5028B (Brass) and 5028S (316 Stainless Steel)
Series high purity automatic changeover systems are
designed to provide continuous supply of high purity
gases to the laboratory, process or instrument. Due
to pressure differential considerations, a line regulator
comes standard. Typically the 5028B/5028S Series
are used with one cylinder per side. To connect more
than one cylinder per side, please order manifold headers separately (see page E296). 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 the

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

The 5032B (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 5032 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.

Dewar and High Pressure Cylinder Changeover System

ProSpec Series 8000 Automatic Dewar and
High Pressure Cylinder Changeover System
The Series 8000 Automatic Changeover System is designed to
provide an uninterrupted flow of gas from two sources, when lower
flow requirements are needed. When one source is 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.

Fully Automatic Changeover Manifolds
ProSpec Auto M5
Based on the PRS5026 switchover design, the ProSpec Auto 2

is a fully automatic changeover system using the new PLC controller SPASW100. The SPASW100 is a touch screen controller
that uses an analog input signal to control the switching of gas
from one side to the other. The analog signal can be from a
pressure transducer installed on the inlet side of the primary
regulators, or from individual scale platforms monitoring weight
of a liquefied gas cylinder. Simple Contact Style gauges can also
be used. The controller also has an emergency shutdown feature
and an additional fault input. The SPASW100 uses a pneumatic
signal to control the switching between two pneumatically
actuated high pressure valves.
The Auto M5 is based on manual 5 valve process panels, with

inert purging capabilities. By incorporating the PLC controller,
SP8100, we can automate, and control switchover from side to
side. The SP8100 is a touch screen controller that uses an analog
input signal to control the switching of gas from one side to
the other. The analog signal can be from a pressure transducer
installed on the inlet side of the primary regulators, or from individual scale platforms monitoring weight of a liquefied gas cylinder.
The controller also has an emergency shutdown feature and
monitors 2 general and 6 safety faults. The SP8100 uses a
pneumatic signal to controls the shutdown and auto switchover
via 2 or 4 pneumatically actuated high pressure valves.

feature and monitors 2 general and 6 safety faults. The ProSpec
Auto MUHP5 is an ideal platform for gas cabinet installations.
We can provide this series in a full auto switchover with purge,
2 cylinder auto switchover, or a simple process purge. A single

Praxairs VersiGas Lab System
The VersiGas Lab Systems have

been designed to provide point of
use control in the laboratory, they
are meant as a secondary pressure
reduction from changeover systems.
They offer todays laboratories great
flexibility when designing gas delivery
systems aimed at meeting specific
point of use gas concerns. As new
instruments are added to meet increasing demands for the laboratory,
gas piping systems can grow into a
tangle of tubing, line regulators and
traps, making it difficult to carry on
preventative maintenance. VersiGas
Lab Systems eliminate this concern
and makes it much easier to install gas
handling equipment in the laboratory.
Typical layout for 5 points of use with purification bypass system and audio/visual
alarms from the gas room. System components maybe purchased separately
please see page E302 for more details.
Convenience
Quality
VersiGas Lab Systems are shipped in convenient sections,

easily added or removed, to accommodate your specific
application, and are rated with an inlet pressure of 3000
psig, this provides added safety at the point of use.

Figure 1
Variable Area Flowmeter
Exploded View
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 flow rate.
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 F) and pressure (14.7 psia).
E310
1-877-PRAXAIR
Figure 2
Variable Area Flowmeter
Principle of Operation
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 flowmeter 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.
6. Metering Valves Flowmeters only measure flow. 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 E319 and E320.
Mass Flow Control Modules
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 our 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 E321.
Operator Consoles
Praxairs Instrument Interface Module the CM4 is designed for
use with all Praxair Instrument Series 100 and 200 Mass
Flowmeters (MFMs) and Mass Flow Controllers (MFCs).
Model CM4 includes four input channels and 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
E318
1-877-PRAXAIR
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 10 foot cable is provided with each Sensor or Control
Module purchased, with these 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 E321.
2. Review the specifications on page E323 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 E323 and
choose the flow range(s) required for your operation.
Selecting Gas Blending Systems
1. Review the Operator Console features on page E321 and
select the console for your needs. As shown in Table 1,
the choices for blending applications are limited to the 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 component represents in the
mixture. Then compare this to the flow ranges available
on page E323.
3. Review the specifications on page E323 and select the
model number
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 E379 for check valves. If you have questions
contact your Praxair representative.

Model CM-400 Operator Console
4 Channel Power Supply and Control Module
The CM-400 is a high performance microprocessor based
4-channel power supply/ control module designed for use
with ProSpec Mass Flow Meters and Controllers. An 8-line,
backlit LCD display provides selectable data on the status
of the 4 channels simultaneously; low noise, thermal overload protected +15 Vdc device power is provided on each
channel. The CM-400 accepts user selectable current or
voltage input signals and supplies a selectable set point
signal for each channel. In addition to the analog I/O, a
digital communication port is included for computer/PLC
interface. A programmable multichannel blend control and
totalizer with batch function allows the CM-400 to precisely
interact with ProSpec Platinum MFCs in a versatile and

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 hy-drogenation 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
cylinder-based supply.
Fully integrated, fully regenerative micro
dryer technology provides the optimum
combination of reliability, performance
and cost of ownership for high purity
applications.

Series D
Compressed Air commonly contains 2,000 ppm water and
more than 5 ppm of THC and particulate from old pipes. The
Series D removes water to a low vapor dew point pressure of
-100 OF or 1.5 ppm and THC to less than 1 ppm, without
particulate larger than 0.01 microns. Series D eliminates
particulate larger than 0.01 microns.
D series conditions your instrument air to an ideal state while
reducing instrument maintenance and reducing retesting due
to erroneous results.
This simple wall mount system remove more than 99.9% of the
water and THC from your compressed air supply. No moving
parts and no tools required for service provides a compact
source for an instrument quality air supply.

Purifiers/Filters
Gas Specific Purifier and Containment Trap Purifiers

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
concentration, 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 ultrahigh 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.
High purity
outlet gas
Inlet gas containing

oxygen, moisture and
hydrocarbons
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.
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 receiving the highest level
of gas purity possible.

Nitrogen. These traps are also ideal for use with argon-methane
mixtures (i.e. P-5 or P-10 mixtures), commonly used with gas
chromatographs utilizing electron capture detectors.
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.
These traps consist of a silanized borosilicate glass tube filled
with a molecular sieve base and activated getter material.
Oxygen and a wide range of oxides react with the getter material
to form a manganese oxide. The glass tube is enclosed in a clear
plastic outer shell to provide protection from glass breakage while
still allowing for a visual indication of the traps condition.

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.

Cryogenic Products
Cryopreservation Overview
Cryopreservation refers to frozen storage of biological

materials at ultra-low temperatures to maintain their critical
quality attributes. Cryopreservation is crucial for many types
of cells, tissues, and cellular components in a wide variety
of industries and academic disciplines. Praxair offers a
world-class portfolio of cryogenic gases, equipment, and
services to enable cryopreservation applications.
Risk mitigation efforts are important to avoid deterioration
of precious samples stored in this manner. Key factors to
consider include: type of refrigeration system, critical storage
temperature, and cryogenic storage phase.
Ultra-low temperature freezers can be categorized as

either mechanical, compressor-based systems or cryogenic systems. Mechanical systems remove heat by
cycling a refrigerant through low and high pressures; they
are generally operated between -70 and -86 C. Cryogenic
freezers exploit the refrigeration power of liquid nitrogen,
which has a normal boiling point near -196 C. Cryogenic
freezers offer access to colder storage temperatures than
mechanical freezers. Cryogenic freezers also fundamentally
provide superior reliability and sample security. Cryogenic
freezers do not rely on compressor systems that can fail
due to electrical power disruption or mechanical breakdown.
If for some reason liquid nitrogen could not be added to a
cryogenic freezer, the highly insulated freezer will typically
keep the samples below the target critical temperature for
several days to weeks, depending on the quantity of liquid
nitrogen in the freezer when the disruption occurred.
The optimal temperature for which biological samples
should be stored will vary depending on a number of
factors, including type of material, surrounding matrix, and
E340
1-877-PRAXAIR
the planned or potential use of the sample. In general, once

a substance is in the solid phase (i.e., frozen), there is no
such thing as too cold. Most degenerative processes are
significantly slowed in cryogenic storage due to both the
lower temperatures and the reduced molecular mobility.
The glass transition temperature of water near -137 C is
typically identified as the critical temperature below which
molecular mobility is dramatically reduced and degradation
processes are effectively arrested. Cryogenic freezers
generally operate at temperatures below the critical glass
transition temperature. At warmer temperatures, such as
-80 C, degradation processes still operate, albeit slowly,
and can have undesirable impact over timeframes of
months or years.
Cryogenic freezers can be operated in a liquid-phase or
vapor-phase mode. In the liquid-phase mode, the biological
material is immersed in the liquid nitrogen. For vapor-phase
operation, most freezers hold a reservoir of liquid nitrogen
in the base of the freezer while the biological materials are
positioned above the reservoir in the cold nitrogen vapor
created by the continuous boiling of the liquid nitrogen.
Todays high efficiency vapor-phase freezers are sufficiently
insulated to maintain operating temperatures as low as
-190 C at the top of the freezer away from the liquid nitrogen reservoir. Storing in liquid phase provides the longest
possible hold times and coldest possible temperature.
Vapor-phase freezers are preferred for many applications,
because they mitigate concerns over cross contamination
and exposure of samples to liquid nitrogen.
With its deep experience and extensive capabilities,
Praxair stands ready to support its customers in selecting
and implementing the right cryopreservation systems for
their needs.

MVE Vari Series Freezers
MVE Vari Series freezers maintain a

user-selected temperature between
-20 C and -150 C. The Vari Pro
controller regulates the flow of liquid
nitrogen through a cryogenic heat
exchanger within the freezer to achieve
the desired operating temperature
throughout the interior sample space
(+ / - 5 C). The nitrogen vapor also
purges frost and moisture to keep the
sample space dry.
The Vari freezers offer a superior

alternative to conventional compressorbased ultra-low temperature freezers
operating near -80 C. Since the Vari
freezers utilize the vaporization of liquid
nitrogen for refrigeration, their power
consumption is very low, typically less
than 1% compared to leading compressor-based freezers.
In addition, Vari freezers provide
improved sample security by avoiding
issues related to mechanical breakdown of compressors and by enclosing
the samples in a highly insulated environment that holds the samples below
their critical temperature for days if the
liquid nitrogen supply is depleted. Vari
freezers can also be operated at much
colder temperatures than compressorbased systems to provide additional
assurance for sample preservation.
Vari freezers are available in select
geographies. Please ask your Praxair
representative for more information.

MVE HEco Series Freezers
The MVE HEco Series freezers provide best-in-class liquid

nitrogen utilization efficiency. The streamlined liquid nitrogen
plumbing system and included vacuum-jacketed transfer
hose significantly reduce liquid nitrogen transfer losses. In
addition, the MVE HEco freezers enclose all electronics and
plumbing beneath hinged work surfaces at the top of the
freezer. These work surfaces provide convenient locations to
place a rack, box, or other item. The MVE HEco freezers are
intended for vapor-phase sample storage with the samples
placed above a liquid nitrogen reservoir at the base of the
unit. These freezers provide -190 C temperatures at the
top boxes in the storage racks. MVE cryogenic storage
freezers provide industry-leading storage density, hold time,
and sample security.

MVE High Efficiency/Vapor
Series -190 C Freezers
There is a critical temperature for most

biological samples that are cryopreserved. This critical temperatue is commonly
estimated as the glass transition temperature of water near -137 C. The
long-term viability of frozen samples can
be seriously compromised if stored above
this temperature. Further, if the samples
experience several transitions through
this range in either thermal direction,
deterioration may also occur. It is therefore important that the liquid nitrogen
freezer maintain a lower temperature,
even during sample loading and retrieval.
Chart-MVEs approach to this problem
was to improve the fundamental design
of freezers used in vapor phase to
achieve -190 C even at the top of the
freezer while the freezer lid is open.
The resulting MVE High Efficiency/Vapor
Series -190 C freezers provide maximum
storage density and the industry's longest
hold times.

that absorbs liquid nitrogen and provides a dry, -150 C
environment. Liquid nitrogen charging can be accomplished
in less than one hour. After charging, the unit remains at
-150 C for five days. The MVE CryoCube can be shipped
or handled in any orientation without impacting temperature
or hold time.
Cryogenic Products
MVE CryoShipper Series Featuring Advanced

QWick Charge Technology
MVE CryoShippers 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. MVE CryoShippers feature Advanced QWick
Charge Technology that enables charging with liquid nitrogen in

less than 2 hours.
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.

The LN2 Tx simplifies the transfer of

liquid nitrogen from one open vessel to
another. The LN2 Tx utilizes a pressurized nitrogen gas source (22-50
psig) to push the liquid nitrogen from
the target vessel and transfer it to the
receiving vessel at a flow rate up to
approximately 2 liters per minute. Use
of the LN2 Tx avoids the hassles and
safety risks of lifting and pouring heavy
vessels holding liquid nitrogen.

tank when the primary tank is empty. The system monitors
pressure in the transfer line to determine when tank switching is necessary. The MVE Automated High Capacity LN2
Supply Tank Switch provides a means for helping ensure
supply of liquid nitrogen to critical cryogenic applications,
such as a biological storage freezer. A visual alarm indicates
when the primary tank has been switched. Audible and

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.

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.
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.
FS Series
Valve
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 E333 and E334 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 E382 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.

Cylinder Connections
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.
SSCGA580
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.

Gas Heaters
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 and M19000 Moisture Indicator

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.

The Beacon 110 is a powerful, low cost fixed system controller for
one point of gas detection. It is microprocessor controlled, versatile,
simple to install and operate, and priced to be the industrys best
value single gas detection controller. It is capable of accepting RKI
sensors directly for LEL level combustibles, Oxygen, CO2, and toxic
gas sensors. The Beacon 110 can also accept any 4-20 mA transmitter (2 or 3 wire, 24 VDC). Sensors can be mounted directly at the
Beacon 110 housing, or can be wired remote from the controller.
Two 10 amp rated relay contacts allow direct control of external
alarms and horns. The digital display has backlighting and
simultaneous readout of the gas type and concentration.
The Beacon 110 is also housed in a NEMA 4X rated case for a

weather tight seal. This case design complies with lock out/tag out
standards and can be fully secured. An external reset switch allows
the alarm to be silenced from outside of the controller housing.
The Beacon 110 ships complete with a wall mounting kit for easy
installation.

Direct Connect Sensors
The RKI Direct Connect series gas sensors are highly reliable
and very cost effective for the detection of common gas
hazards. The direct connect series are available for LEL, H2
Specific LEL, LEL IR, Oxygen, H2S, CO, CO2, and for a
variety of toxic gases. The sensors for LEL, H2, Oxygen,
H2S, CO2, and Carbon Monoxide are explosion-proof with
flame arrestors, and approved for use in hazardous areas
(Class 1, Div. 1 Groups B, C, D). An optional non-explosion
proof version is available for oxygen, H2S, CO, and CO2 for
use in non-hazardous atmospheres.
The Direct Connect sensors can be used in two different
ways. The sensors can be mounted directly to the controllers as a complete stand alone system, or they can
be mounted to explosion proof junction boxes for remote
detection.
The toxic sensors are electrochemical type plug-in sensors,

which provide high specificity, fast response, and long life.
The plug-in design allows quick replacement in the field
with no tools required. Toxic sensors are designed for use
in Class I, Div. 2 hazardous locations. Sensors are available
for NH3, SO2, PH3, AsH3, and HCN.
The Direct Connect sensors can be used either indoors
or outdoors. The flame arrestors for the explosion-proof
versions utilize a patented coating which make them water
repellent. Also, splash guards are available for use in very
wet environments. An optional stainless steel junction box
is available for corrosive environments.
All of the Direct Connect sensors are designed to specifically
interface with RKI Beacon 110, 200, and 410 controllers.

Intelligent Gas Detector
GD-70D Series
The new Model GD-70D smart gas detection transmitter
series sets a new standard for performance, flexibility, and
versatility. The GD-70D sample-draw transmitter offers an
array of sensor technologies unmatched in the industry,
including unique offerings, such as our hydrogen-specific
or LEL versions.
The long life high capacity pump and wide variety of

sensing elements are replaceable in a few seconds, with no
tools required. The smart sensors retain all calibration and
sensor-specific data in non-volatile memory, so sensors can
be hot-swapped in the field with no programming required.
The sensors also retain calibration information, which means
they can be conveniently calibrated separate from the
transmitter, avoiding transport of calibration gases to field
locations. The GD-70D firmware automatically corrects for
long-term zero and span drift minimizing maintenance
and maximizing reliability.
The GD-70D can be used as a stand-alone device, offering
a number of communication protocols to existing PLC
systems, or can be integrated with the Beacon series of
single and multi-channel controllers.
All GD-70D transmitters include a large, easy to read integral
LCD display, tri-color bar graph for visual notification of
alarm status, programmable low and high alarm relays, and
fault relay. Pump flow is self-tuning for maintenance-free
operation. Because all GD-70D base units are identical,
sensors can be interchanged with no programming or tools
required, resulting in maximum flexibility to the user.

General Safety Information

Safety Data Sheets
A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) formerly known as a Material

Safety Data Sheet lists the characteristics and hazards of a
specific hazardous industrial material. SDSs tell how to handle, store, and ship the material safely and in accordance
with regulations. They also give emergency and first aid
procedures for dealing with injuries, fires, leaks, spills, and
other incidents involving the material. Praxair SDSs provide
additional information such as ratings under various hazard
identification systems, listing by certain states, and valve
connection data.
Under the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard,
manufacturers of hazardous materials must prepare and
make available an SDS for each hazardous material sold.
In addition, those purchasing these materials must maintain
a file of SDSs in the work place so they are available to their
employees.
Precautionary information on the safe handling of gases

listed in this catalog is provided on Safety Data Sheets
(SDS), which are issued to customers for each product sold.
We strongly urge you to read and thoroughly understand
the information contained in the applicable SDS before
using any of the gases in this catalog.
Copies of SDSs can be obtained thru your Sales Representative, by calling Praxair at 1-800-PRAXAIR or visiting
our website at www.praxair.com/resource-library/sds.
Personal Protective Equipment
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 SDS 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.
Receiving Cylinders and Containers
Thoroughly inspect the cylinders for any obvious damage. The cylinder surface should be clean and free from
defects such as cuts, gouges, burns and obvious 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 contaminate 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:

n
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. This venting is not a leak.
n
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.
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.
1-877-PRAXAIR
F415
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:
Check the TC/DOT cylinder markings to be sure you

understand the pressures contained in the cylinders.

Moving Cylinders and Containers
Storing 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:
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.
n
n
n
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.
n The valve protection cap is properly secured in place on
cylinders with neck threads.
n
n
Note: Valve caps must always be in place while moving or

transporting cylinders or when they are in storage.
While moving full or empty cylinders:
Always use carts or hand trucks designed for
this purpose.
n Never drop cylinders or allow them to strike each
other violently.
n Never lift cylinders by the cap or with a lifting magnet.
n
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.
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 E for our full line of safety apparatus
(pages E389 - E404) and gas detection systems
(pages E405 - E409).
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.

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:
1-877-PRAXAIR
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.
