Detection of liquid gas
2 Gamma radiation sources which detect up to 400 gr gas left in the cylinders.
Drain and gas recovery
Emptying bottles and recovering the gas-in the gas phase or liquid.The recovered gas is stored and re-used. No atmospheric emissions!
Valve removing
All valves removed are stored and inspected later according EN14912 standard or as per customer specs
