FlexGas™ Cylinder Gas Cabinet

Download FlexGas Brochure

With the addition of the optional FlexPowr™ Controller, the FlexGas™ Cabinet can support a myriad of automated ALARM and panel SHUTDOWN options such as: Auto-Switchover, Excess Flow Sensors, Low Cylinder Pressure Alarms, High Delivery Pressure Alarms, Gas Leak Sensors, Scales and more! The FlexPowr™ Controller can support up to eight (8) user-settable alarm inputs and eight (8) user-settable alarm outputs. EMO slambutton and Exhaust Pressure Sensor are included with the FlexPowr™ Controller option.

FlexGas™ makes it easy to meet your exact gas delivery needs. Our modular design concept allows you to use a building-block method to configure a gas cabinet to your specifications.

Begin by choosing one of several cylinder enclosure configurations. Then proceed to the gas panel level by selecting the gas panel purity. From the standard 3-Valve UHP panel, you can choose to add PURGE capability (4-Valve) or PURGE/EVAC capability (6-Valve).

Add safety and peace-of-mind by purchasing the optional FlexPowr™ Controller. Simply select which panels you want to shutdown on ALARM, and they will be fi tted with a normally-closed ESO Valve for automatic shutdown. The FlexPowr Controller supports up to 4 dry contact alarm inputs. Exhaust pressure switch, gas leak detection, andn UVIR are just some of the optional controls components available to prompt shutdown.
