What is the service pressure? Where can I get my Luxfer carbon composite cylinders filled?
Luxfer has designed all our U.S. carbon composite cylinders with a service pressure of 3,000 psi, which permits the use of standard components while maximizing the oxygen capacity in the lightest container. With more gas in a lighter-weight package, you can reduce the total number of cylinders required by each user and reduce your visits and deliveries. Many gas locations in the U.S. can fill composite cylinders to 3,000 psi, and the number is growing as higher-pressure cylinders become more popular. This is the same trend already experienced in Europe and Japan, where filling to 3,000 psi is now routine. In fact, in Europe there is a growing demand for oxygen cylinders filled to 300 bar (4,350 psi), and the trend toward higher pressures and greater gas capacities is continuing around the world. Most filling systems in the U.S. can already handle 3,000 psi, and many others can be easily and inexpensively adapted to do so. Please contact your gas supplier for more information. If your c
