Strong, Durable Inert Gas Piping

Transair aluminum and stainless steel piping have been designed for rigors of conveying inert gases. Transair's sealing technology will prevent even the smallest gas molecules from escaping the piping system.

Compatible Gases

Transair aluminum and stainless steel piping is suitable for the distribution of non-flammable (inert) gases including welding gas mixtures. All Transair piping and fittings have been laboratory tested for purity. The innovative sealing technology of Transair fittings prevents smaller gas molecules like helium from escaping a Transair aluminum or stainless steel inert gas piping distribution system. Compatible gases include:
 

  • Nitrogen (N2)
  • Argon (AR2)
  • Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
  • Helium (HE2)
  • Argon (AR2) + Carbon Dioxide (CO2) - All Ratios
  • Oxygen (O2) - Up to 22%
  • Hydrogen (H2) - Up to 4%

Common Applications

Most industries use inert gases for specific manufacturing processes. Under normal circumstance, an inert gas will not create a chemical reaction. This nature makes inert gases the ideal choices for such applications as blanketing gases during welding and conveying beverages through tubing without changing the taste of the beverage. For most applications, Transair aluminum or stainless steel piping can be used for an inert gas distribution piping system. The list below shows some of the common industries where Transair has been used. This is not a comprehensive list of all inert gas applications where Transair can be used. If you have questions about your specific application, please contact us.

Featured Application: Food & Beverage

Nitrogen and other industrial gases traditionally have been delivered to the point of use by gas supply companies. These companies utilize refillable storage tanks that can be replaced or filled on-site. This method contains additional costs and extra process steps that may not financially benefit every application. For applications where nitrogen is constantly being used, on-site generation might be the more economical choice. Utilizing Parker's Transair piping with the equipment from Parker's Industrial Gas Filtration and Generation Division provides the end user with a single supplier source for on-site nitrogen generation and conveyance.
