GAS SUPPLIES
This Anaerobic Cabinet requires one gas cylinders fitted with a two stage regulator. The output side of
the regulator should have a range of 0 - 50 p.s.i. (3.3 bar).
The gas cylinder should contain:
10% Hydrogen + 10% Carbon Dioxide + 80% Nitrogen
CAUTION: GAS CONTAINING MORE THAN 10% HYDROGEN SHOULD NOT BE USED
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
The gas pressure at the inlet to the cabinet should be approximately 30 psi (2 bar) with the gas
flowing, and the gas flow is as follows:
MIXED GAS
35L/min
The diameter of the pipes connecting the cylinder to the cabinet should be selected according to the
length of run to give a minimum pressure drop, this will give maximum gas utilisation.
The cabinet is fitted with a 6mm diameter "push in connector" for the gas.

CAUTION
Switching the Anaerobic workstation “OFF” before it has reached its working temperature can
cause the “THERMAL FUSE” protecting the heater to rupture.
We recommend that the heater is switched off at the control panel if any work is being carried out
on the unit requiring switching “OFF” and “ON” or during any commissioning tests.
