Acetylene Plant – 200 m3/hour

We are leaders in designing, manufacturing and supplying acetylene plants which are used for producing acetylene, a colorless and highly flammable gas having a garlic color. As a leading acetylene plant manufacturer, we offer the plants in different capacities and sizes ranging from 25m3/hour to 200m3/hour. Our plants are manufactured using the advanced technology, which is imported from the leading industrial gas plant manufacturing companies.  Besides, our machines have got the superb designs and incorporate the latest features and are fully automated. Operator handling the plant does have to be technically trained. Our company use stainless steel in the manufacturing of the acetylene gas plants. We are trusted for fabricating -free and sturdy acetylene plants. The reaction generates lots of heat, which needs to be moderated to prevent the acetylene gas from exploding as it is done in our acetylene gas plants.

As leading acetylene plant manufacturer in India, all components used in the fabricating are bought only from the best suppliers in the industrial gas plant manufacturing industry.  Our fabricating and manufacturing is done on compliance with the international quality norms and parameters. Being a customer-centric company, we are very focused on delivering high quality industrial gas plants and machinery. For strict compliance with quality control measures, most of the major quality assurance companies have certified our products including ISO 9001:2008 and CE. It is imperative for all exporters wishing to sell their machinery the US and European markets.  Acetylene plants are used in welding, cutting and heat treating. Main advantage of buying acetylene gas plants from us is that we not only use the advanced technology but also offer the machinery at competitive prices. Our engineers oversee the entire process from erection, commissioning and installation the client’s site

Basic principle

Acetylene is generated by a chemical reaction between calcium carbide and water. The reaction generates lots of heat, which needs to be controlled to prevent the acetylene gas from exploding as it is done in our acetylene gas plants.

Scope of Supply of Acetylene Gas Plants

 Acetylene generator

The latest and fully advanced acetylene generator is stationary carbide to water automatic generator with twin hoppers. Acetylene is generated as a result of the chemical reaction between calcium carbide and water. The machinery is designed and manufactured to generate acetylene at a pressure of 7 psi.

Condenser

The condenser works by cooling and purifying the gas thereby condensing the excessive moisture. Cooled water is circulated on the shell side from bottom to top. The condenser is designed and manufactured to suit all local conditions provided sufficient water flow is maintained.

Low pressure dryer

The solid anhydrous calcium chloride at (at least) 80% purity in this pressure vessel soaks up the moisture in the gas. It becomes fluid and is collected at the bottom and drained.

The LP purifier

In the LP purifier, this vessel gets divided into 2 sections by wire mesh framework each section charged of purifying mass. The chemicals in the purifying mass soak up impurities, including H2S phosgene.

Ammonia Scrubber

The component is a vertical vessel of latest design with a level gauge and water make-up line. A particular level as marked on the level indicator, which has to be maintained for efficient working. All the water soluble impurities for instance ammonia are scrubbed/removed in the Ammonia scrubber.

Acetylene compressor

The acetylene compressor employed in the systems is a multi-stage compressor which is immersed in a water tank to shun any pressurized gas to get in touch with air and also to make sure that all the components are continuously cooled for highest safety. It is driven by a flame proof electric motor.

High Pressure Drier

High Pressure Drier Three Stage filled with special packing and anhydrous chloride to remove impurities from the compressed acetylene gas.

Cylinders filling manifold

Filling Manifold with two headers, non-return valves, flashback arrestor pressure gauges and control valve.

Flame proof level controller

Strict usage of accurate and reliable infrared level controller senses high level and low level in accuracy of millimeters and designed for hazardous atmosphere and has very long life. It meets the criterion of CE standards directive.

Instrument Control Panel

Instrument Control Panel is employed for controlling of high and low level pressure monitoring in generator, high and low pressure cut off in the compressor for high safety due to accuracy of pressure transmitters as specified by CE manual.
