Compressed Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Gas in Cylinders
Philippine CO2 Industry Inc. packages carbon dioxide (CO2) in high pressure cylinders for small and medium-sized users. This is a semi-gas and semi-liquid form of carbon dioxide compressed in cylinders of varied sizes. Most common application of this product include:
- For cold welding / MIG-welding mild steel
- For hardening processes
- For plasma-cutting as a shielding gas
- For beverage dispensing
- For fumigation
- For fire extinguishers
There are many types of high pressure cylinders used for carbon dioxide (CO2) containment. For example, cylinders used in fire extinguishers have dip tubes that run down the center of the pressurized cylinder and extracts liquid up though the valve. A carbon dioxide regulator cannot be used with any other gas cylinder due to the different fittings and pressure level required.
