C Using High Pressure Air Cylinders
When using high pressure air cylinders as the air supply:
1. Refer to the manufacturer’s specifications for installation and maintenance procedures for high pressure regula-
tors.
2. Examine the cylinder valves to be sure they are clean and free of oil, grease or any foreign material. Briefly open
each cylinder valve to blow out any dust which may be present.
3. The cylinder must be equipped with an adjustable high - pressure regulator capable of outlet pressures up to 100
psi (6.9 bar) maximum and flows of at least 300 scfh (141.5 lpm).
4. Connect supply hose to the cylinder.
NOTE
Pressure should be set at 100 psi (6.9 bar) at the high pressure cylinder regulator.
Supply hose must be at least 1/4 inch (6 mm) I.D.
For a secure seal, apply thread sealant to the fitting threads, according to manufacturer's instructions. Do Not use
Teflon tape as a thread sealer, as small particles of the tape may break off and block the small air passages in the torch.
