Seamless Cylinders for Fire-Fighting and Beverage Applications

EKCs high-pressure gas cylinders are ideal to store carbon dioxide (CO2) gas, which is used to make aerated water, as a propellant for fire extinguishers, beverages and beer kegs, and to inflate rubber rafts. The EKC range is wide, and includes small cylinders with water capacities of between one litre and 34 litres and large ones for system applications (46.7 litres to 280 litres). We provide lightweight CO2 cylinders that can be used for hand-held and portable wheel-type fire extinguishers and for the beverage industry. The large cylinders can be used for system fire extinguishers that use CO2, Halon, FM-200 and NAF-S-II & III gases. EKC cylinders are approved for use all over the world because of EKCs ability to match customer requirements. We not only supply cylinders with neck threading that meets your requirements, but also with other fittings like valves and guards/caps, painted with colours that meet national and other standards. We have given below the details of the cylinders, which can also be used for nitrous oxide and all liquefiable gases with test pressures up to 250 bars. We can also supply cylinders with test pressures of up to 325 bars for special applications. Please feel free to contact us for more details at ekc@vsnl.com
