• 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.

We manufacture oxygen plants and nitrogen plants as per the latest technology & design of the Company ING. L. & A., BOSCHI, ITALY. This technology has been proven all over the world for its working efficiency & trouble free operation. The AIR SEPARATION COLUMN of BOSCHI has state of the art distillation trays, SPECIAL HIGH EFFICIENCY exchangers condenser to get a high yield of Nitrogen by separation of Liquid Air, which results in very low pressure & low power consumption.

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.

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 IS2148-68 (Group II) or BSS-229 may be used in an acetylene plant building. Acetylene cylinders must be of specification IS: 7312: 1974 or ICC:8.

This is a circular published in the interest of all our customers worldwide to caution them that for production of medical/hospital oxygen from the oxygen plant, it is very necessary that the main equipment i.e. the air separation plant,where the actual separation/distillation of oxygen and nitrogen takes place from air consisting of many trays should be made of cryogenic grade stainless steel column with temperature as low as -190 degC below zero. This is extreme cold temperature which is known as cryogenic temperature and ordinary materials like copper, brass and ordinary steel the properties changed and there is a reaction between copper and oxygen and other impurities. These impurities are collect alongwith oxygen and carried to the cylinder. Therefore the following caution has been issued.

MEDICAL/HOSPITAL OXYGEN:

1. The medical grade oxygen for confirming American/European Pharmacopia has to be completely free from moisture, hydrocarbons and any form of oxides carbonates, mono-carbonates including CO2 CO NH3 SO2CL2, CH4 etc. or dangerous chemical formations which may take place in the air separation column with reaction of copper and ordinary steel or brass with oxygen, water and carbon-dioxide etc.

2. To produce medical grade oxygen, it is most essential to use STAINLESS STEEL (Cryogenic grade) argon welded in the manufacture of the air separation column, piping etc.specially the trays where the distillation/separation of oxygen and nitrogen takes place. This will prevent any type of chemical reaction as it is the safest and most strong and sturdy material used by American/European manufacturers

3. Completely avoid usage of old type of materials such as copper, brass and ordinary steel used in manufacture of air separation columns for oxygen/nitrogen plants.

4. It is cautioned by the American/European standards of the hazards of breathing oxygen contaminated by copper,brass and ordinary steel which can cause even death/serious injury to the person breathing oxygen produced from old type of local Indian/Chinese manufacturers who are not giving proper advice/warning to the customers.

The customer is advised to select the complete air separation column inside the cold box including all the trays, vessels and piping to be made of special grade stainless steel .
