Getting an Argon Cylinder #11

Open chaichontat opened 1 year ago

chaichontat commented 1 year ago

I need some argon gas to spray over moisture-sensitive chemicals for storage. Do you know how to get some gas cylinders that are filled with argon? I'm pretty sure we have a pressure regulator somewhere. The only remaining part that is needed is a valve that I can connect to some tubing.

Argon and/or nitrogen?

chaichontat commented 1 year ago

Argon should be better, since it can pool inside a bottle.

chaichontat commented 1 year ago

Nitrogen also works. Any grade from Airgas is acceptable. I see that there are empty slots for a gas tank with tubing into the STAC. The tank could be placed there.

Can you add a N2 tank to the order system. We can/should get one. And we should look around for the regulator that we had before. Maybe Genevieve knows what happened to it? I remember discussing this with her at one point.
