Project: Industrial Cylinder Filling
Customer type: Major European Airline
-
- O2 Breathing Cylinder filling
- CO2/N2 Emergency Life-raft inflation cylinder filling
Objective: The client, a major International Airline within the Aviation Sector UK wished to take control of their cylinder filling requirements by developing a market leading Breathing Oxygen and CO2/N2 gases cylinder filling plant.
Whilst the client had extensive experience within the Aviation Sector UK in the airline technology requirements, they had limited knowledge / experience in the area of filling gas cylinders.
The technology adopted was automatic cylinder filling utilising pressure / temperature compensation technique (for the O2 system) including proportional valve control (“fine fill”) to ensure accurate, repeatable fills and reduced heat of compression, along with minimal operator involvement. Gravimetric filling technology was adopted for the CO2/N2 system.
In addition, high levels of safety, quality, reliability and productivity were key drivers in deciding upon iGas Technology Solutions Ltd as their partner.
