3 HiQ equipment for specialty gases 03 Simple solutions for purity. BASELINE equipment. BASELINE regulators will give you peace of mind, knowing that your high purity gases are being delivered according to the original specification. Your needs are our top priority. The primary objective of a scientific regulator is to maintain the integrity of the gas from the cylinder to the point of use. Not all applications will require a complex gas supply system, sometimes all that is needed is a cylinder regulator. For situations in which high quality is crucial but speed and simplicity are equally important, BOC has developed the BASELINE range. In order to meet the wide variety of applications of our customers, both dual stage and single stage regulators are available in the BASELINE range. A variety of outlet pressures are available and the regulator can be equipped with either a diaphragm valve or a needle valve if required. Benefits of BASELINE regulators. BASELINE regulators have bar stock bodies. All surfaces in contact with the gas stream have been machined to ensure a smooth finish. This minimises particle shedding, reducing a potential source of contamination, and allows for quick and easy purging of the regulator. The diaphragm in BASELINE regulators is 316L Stainless Steel, preventing air from leaking into the regulator and contaminating the gas. It also ensures that the high value gas passing through the regulator is not lost.

REDLINE equipment is a modular system which allows maximum flexibility when designing, installing or retrofitting your individual specialty gas supply system. Gas panels. In central gas supply systems, gas panels are used to reduce the high primary pressure in gas cylinders or cylinder bundles to more manageable secondary pressures. BOC offers three types of REDLINE panels: single, double and semi-automatic. Technical Data Inlet Primary Pressure Material Housing 3300 psi (230 bar) PVDF, PCTFE Seals Membrane Hastelloy Double gas panel Points of use. Together with the gas panel, the point of use guarantees a stable outlet pressure. Each REDLINE point-of-use assembly can be individually equipped with the functions shut-off, pressure regulation and flow regulation. That way, the points of use at the work stations can be retrofitted any time to meet new requirements. BOC offers various REDLINE point of use models for different installation types, e.g. wall, bench, panel or fume cupboard mounting. Technical Data Max Primary Pressure Operating Temperature Material 550 psi (40 bar) -20 to +70 C (-4 to +158 F) Point of use for bench mounting Tested for reliability, integrity and safety. Pressure testing is carried out according to applicable standards and a corresponding protocol is compiled. The complete system is purged and cross checked. To guarantee that the system is tight, we carry out a leak detection test, which is documented in a Test and Completion certificate. A complete system, however, does not only contain piping and components, it also consists of various engineered safety features. For instance, flammable gases such as hydrogen require flash back arrestors and excess flow valves. Most systems are also equipped with safety relief and check valves. Some installations also require fixed and personal gas alarms combined with computerised surveillance systems

6 06 HiQ equipment for specialty gases BASELINE technical specifications. The BASELINE range is suitable for purities of up to 5.0 and is designed to complement the specialty gases supplied by BOC. Both stainless steel and brass options are available to suit corrosive and non-corrosive gases. Dual Stage regulators are recommended for applications where a continuous supply of gas is critical, as dual stage regulators can supply a constant pressure, even with a decrease in. It is recommended that single stage regulators only be used in circumstances where the operator can monitor and adjust the regulator as needed. This is due to the fact that the outlet pressure cannot be as accurately controlled whilst the source pressure decreases. BASELINE Series C106/1 Single stage cylinder regulator.
