Hey all,
I'm currently tasked with designing and constructing a CO2 ring main to supply 7 tanks (1 x 40h, 5 x 20h, 1x10h) and a canning machine complete with control board being supplied by a bank of 15 gas bottles with 2 primary outputs. I was planning on joining the two outs of the co2 bottle bank in to the board and seperate them down in to 9 secondary regulators. Reg 1 - for tank top pressure, supplying all tanks. Regs 2 - 8 to control carb stones. Reg 9 to the canning line.
Can anyone see any issues with this?
I was planning on piping with pneumatic/air line grade, have a non-return and shut off taps on each gas outputs as well as each of the regulator outputs. My only other slight niggle with this is, currently we use imperial (john guest style that are used in bars) push fittings on each tank. The higher pressure rated pneumatic push fittings are all metric sized and means complete over hauling, new fittings for everything. There's not a problem with doing this, just wondered if it may be overkill.
Any thoughts and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
