Acetylene Plants

The acetylene plants has been manufactured with Boschi - Italy designs & drawings and modified by experienced engineers to perfection. The acetylene plant is fully automatic and all the operations are performed automatically by pneumatically controlled valves along with highly accurate sensors and temperature controller imported from USA, Germany, Japan.

Acetylene is generated as a result of the chemical reaction between the calcium carbide and water. The by-product calcium hydroxide is discharged automatically from the generator. Acetylene gas burns along with oxygen as a cutting & welding torch and it provides the highest temperature of any known oxygen gas mixture.
welding cannot be done without the oxy-acetylene flame.

Salient Features Of Acetylene Gas Filling Plants
• Acetylene (Explosion proof)
• Capacity ranging from 15cum/hour to 200cum/hr of latest technology.
• Universal Boschi Brand Acetylene gas plants are of robust design for trouble free working.
• No bulky gas holder required.
• Automatic controls for feeding water.
• Maintaining temperatures, pressures, and slurry drain are full proof, efficient and are of international standard.
• Excellent absorption of gas in cylinders.
• No gas loss and high yield.
• Very simple and safe to operate.
• Low power consumption.
• Low maintenance cost.
• Twin Hoppes Generator.
• Automatic Screw Feed.
• High Safety

The entire operation is perfectly synchronised to give maximum efficiency and simplicity in operation. Any failure, whether it is of power supply, water, instruments air, is signalled visually and also audibly when an alarm bell rings to alert the operator.

Only flame proof lights and electrical fittings according to CE may be used in an acetylene plant building. Acetylene cylinders must be of specification as approved in country of usage.

The design of the entire plant has been made with safety in mind. Flash Back Arrestors, High Pressure Reverse Flow check valves, safety valves and complete gauging help protect both equipment and personnel. Various auto controls, safety valves, auto vent valves, non-return valves and Flash Back Arrestors are also provided to make this plant absolutely safe to operate in all conditions.

Note: Acetylene being an explosion gas the European communion has laid down strict norms for safety compliance.
