Acetylene Plant – 25 m3/hour

We are trusted as the leading manufacturers of acetylene gas plant fabricating the machinery in technical collaboration with an internationally renowned Italian company.  Best raw materials are used in the fabricating of acetylene gas plants. Acetylene is a colorless and highly flammable gas and has garlic-like odor. Our acetylene gas plants come in different capacities and sizes ranging from 20m3/hour to 200 m3/hour. Designs used in the fabricating of the acetylene machinery are made by the Italian company and are exported throughout the world. We use the latest technology, solid designs and our plants are equipped with the latest features. Our acetylene gas plants are fully automated and can easily be operated by a single person.

As we manufacture our plants with stainless steel, it is assured that our customers get the best value of many spent on the plant machinery. Our acetylene gas plants are durable, reliable and explosion-free. We use the best quality components in fabrication of the machinery. Fabricating of our plant machinery is carried out in compliance with international standards and specifications. For strict compliance with quality control measures, all the leading international quality assurance organizations have certified and endorsed our products. We have been awarded ISO 9001:2008 and CE certifications. It is imperative for exporters to have CE certification if they want to sell their machinery into the US and the European market. CE mark on your machinery is a mark of quality.

Basic principle

Acetylene is produced by a chemical reaction between calcium carbide and water.  The reaction gives off a lot of heat, which must be controlled to prevent acetylene from exploding.

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.

Purchase our technologically superior acetylene gas plants at very competitive prices.

Acetylene gas is generated by the chemical reactions between calcium carbide and water. The reaction produces a great deal of heat, which has to be moderated to stop the acetylene gas from exploding. Apart from technologically superior acetylene plants, we also offer amazing after sales service. Our engineers are involved with the entire process from erection, commissioning to the installation at the client’s site.
