AMEROX® Gases and Gas Cylinders

Residual Pressure ValvesThe Drew Marine AMEROX Cylinder label has always included the statement “RETURN WITH 1 BAR PRESSURE” as well as “Keep valve closed at all times when not in use.” These instructions are not always followed and occasionally cylinders are returned that have been exposed to salt water with the top valves open. Water inside a cylinder can result in serious internal corrosion, in the case of an oxygen cylinder, or a significant reduction in the capacity of an acetylene cylinder.

Since January 1996, Drew Marine has equipped every new permanent gas cylinder, and all other cylinders requiring valve replacement, with a new, unique top valve, that automatically closes when the cylinder pressure has dropped to about 1 bar, thus closing off the inlet and preventing the accidental entrance of water or moisture. The Drew AMEROX Residual Pressure Valve is ideally suited to the marine industry since it assures a significant increase in the level of safety of Drew-supplied cylinders and requires no change in the way our customers use the gases delivered in the cylinders. No special adapters are required, no special procedures need be followed.

Cylinders are potentially hazardous. Refer to the Cylinder Safety Smart Chart on page 10.

(*) TARE S for acetylene cylinders includes cylinder shell, neck ring, top valve, porous mass, acetone and saturation charge.(**) Some non-Drew marked cylinders may be limited to 6.3 kg filling weight.

ApplicationsNITROGENNitrogen gas is inert and does not react with other substances, liquids or gases. It is an inexpensive, exceptionally pure and dry gas which is excellent for purging tanks and lines, removing moisture from refrigeration systems, blanketing dangerous cargo and cargo that may be ruined by oxidation. Nitrogen is not suitable for use as a shielding gas for welding. It can be used as a plasma gas in special appli-cations of the plasma cutting process where oxidation of the cut surface must be kept to the absolute minimum.

Blanketing of cargo is accomplished by pump-ing nitrogen into the cargo area and displacing the atmosphere in the voids or vacant spaces. This inert blanket helps to prevent flammable cargo from burning or exploding and non-dangerous cargo such as wine, fruit juice or vegetable oils from spoiling due to oxidation.

ARGONArgon is an inert gas which is used as a shield-ing gas for the Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding process. TIG welding may be used for welding stainless steel, aluminum and other alloys such as YORCALBRO and CUNIFER products. Argon pro-duces a smooth, quiet arc and excellent cleaning action when welding aluminum and magnesium with AC high frequency TlG equipment. NOTE: Nitrogen and Argon are available in most major ports. Consult your local Drew Marine for details.

The AMEROX Gas Welding and Cutting Kit is especially designed to meet the highest standards of the worldwide marine indus-try and to perform under the most rigorous shipboard conditions.

All parts in the AMEROX Kit are fully inter-changeable with most existing equipment now onboard and assure top performance and reliability. Safety is always a prime consideration, from the nozzle mixing design of our cutting attachment, to the recommended flashback arrestors and backfire valves, which no welder should be without. One example is the chrome plating on AMEROX Blowpipes which is specifically applied in order to avoid spat-ter adherence and to reduce heat transfer and possible backfires.

Our products are designed to perform safely and reliably under the toughest conditions of shipboard use. They are supported with parts and service through the Drew Marine organization in all major ports throughout the world.

The AMEROX Gas Welding and Cutting Kit contains all the basic components required for manual gas welding, cut-ting and brazing onboard ship. The prod-uct code number for the complete kit is 523010. Kit components are listed here and may be ordered as individual replace-ment parts using the product code num-bers indicated.

Please refer to pages 11 and 12 of the cat-alog in order to choose the other system parts such as regulators, hoses, backfire valves, flashback arrestors and safety and protective equipment necessary to com-plete an installation.

NOTE: Blowpipes, nozzles, cutting attach-ments and torch handles may be fully interchangeable with existing parts now onboard. These existing parts may be worn or otherwise unsafe and therefore, should be replaced with new Drew equipment to avoid possible serious damage or injury.

Warning: Backflow check valves will not stop a flashback. Approved flashback arrestors should always be attached to the inlet connections of a welding torch handle or a cutting torch. The AMEROX Flashback Arrestor contains a sintered stainless steel filter element that arrests (quenches) a flashback originating at the torch. It also includes a built-in backflow check valve. However, in the event of repeated flashbacks, the arrestor element may become so overheated that the flashback is reignited and continues upstream through the hose to the regu-lator, resulting in an explosion.

Therefore, to prevent serious damage and possible injury, AMEROX Backfire Valves should be installed at the regula-tor. In case of backfire, these backfire valves will automatically stop the flow of gas in either direction, extinguish the backfire and relieve any excess pres-sure buildup in the hose.

Oxygen and Acetylene RegulatorsA vessel’s oxygen and acetylene supply is provided either by cylin-ders mounted securely in the workshop or from the preferred safer and more convenient Central Gas Installation Systems (see page 33-34). In order to connect the torch handle to the cylinder supply and to provide safety protection, Flashback Arrestors and Backfire Valves must be installed.

AMEROX AccessoriesAMEROX accessories are designed for the safety, comfort and convenience of a vessel’s engineer. Welding goggles in particular are vitally important to the safety and comfort of the user and Drew Marine pays particular attention to these requirements by providing a “flip front” system which allows the welding lenses to be flipped up out of the way. Eye protection is retained through secondary clear acetate lenses which always cover the eyes so long as the comfortable soft plastic goggles are worn. A small point perhaps, but an important one. All Drew welding products are designed with this attention to detail and user comfort and safety.

AMEROX Silver Brazing RodsPackaged in individual sealed plastic tubes to assure factory freshness, these flux-coat-ed, cadmium-free rods are provided in two popular alloys, SL60 and SL45.

AMEROX Gas Welding and Brazing RodsThese rods and coating are low-fuming, specially formulated to meet the demanding marine applications and are all user-friendly products. Flux coatings, where required, are selected for easy wetting of the workpiece and rapid cleanup, as well as a very low hygroscopic level.

Each rod is selected for the solution of a specific welding and brazing problem and is particularly useful on difficult jobs such as thin materials or special alloys or material combinations.

High density polyethylene tubing with clear screw caps assures highest quality at delivery, as well as resealability after initial use. Complete product description and application information is included on the package label.

AMEROX FluxesDrew Marine fluxes are designed to exactly match the characteristics of the brazing rods with which they are recommended for use. The flux removes the oxide layers which are present both prior to brazing and at elevated brazing temperatures. Fluxes also improve the flow of the melted braz-ing rod onto the base material. Since most fluxes are corrosive, it is best to remove any residual flux after the workpiece has cooled. More detailed instructions may be found in our Welding Handbook. Flux qual-ity is assured by the tough plastic jar and cap and moisture-proof seal.

In order to provide the necessary gas supply (oxygen and acetylene) to fully equip a ship’s workshop and to supplement the basic equip-ment and consumables supplied in the AMEROX Ships Cabinet, the following additional items should be ordered:

1. A supply of gas cylinders sufficient for a normal voyage. The ratio is normally three oxygen cylinders to two acetylene cylinders.

2. Gas cylinder regulators and backfire valves for both oxygen and acetylene are required. The regulators mount directly to the cylinders; the backfire valves connect to the outlet of the respec-tive regulator.

3. Connecting hoses for oxygen and acetylene, either 1/4” or 3/8” twin hose assemblies with fittings assembled, 20 meters in length, quick couplings, and a pair of flashback arrestors at the torch end.

4. For a new building, a Central Gas Installation System provides the safest, most easily managed gas supply facility. The system consists of a manifold, pressure regulator, high pressure flexible hoses, brackets and cylinder storage racks for the appropriate number of oxygen and acetylene cylinders. The system is usually installed in separate, ventilated compartments on the main deck (see page 33-34).

5. With a central gas installation, one oxygen and acetylene outlet station should be installed in the workshop, complete with low pressure regulator, pressure gauges and backfire valves.

Today’s ships are more frequently using, sophisticated instruments to monitor on board atmospheres. These instruments or systems both fixed and portable are critical for measuring dangerous levels of flammable gases, toxic gas-es, and oxygen deficient atmospheres in order to ensure the safety of the crew, the ship and the quality of the product being transported. Gas monitoring instruments are designed to protect personnel from unseen hazards that may exist in workplace environments, including confined spaces. It is vital to worker safety that these instruments are maintained and calibrated properly. The only way to guarantee that an in-strument will detect gas accurately and reliably is to test it with a known concentration of gas. Exposing the instrument to a known concentra-tion of test gas will show whether the sensors respond accurately and whether the instrument alarms function properly.

Drew Marine offers the complete line of calibra-tion gases for ships in addition to the industrial gases and the cutting and welding equipment. Ships today have increased the amount of equipment onboard that require periodic calibration in order to meet the requirements of the marine regulatory bodies, class societ-ies, and port state control. In addition to the calibration gas cylinders Drew Marine offers the regulators, gas detection equipment, calibration services, and gas detector spare parts required to keep the ship compliant in all areas of gas detection. Contact your Drew Marine account executive for more information on gas detection and calibration.

AMERARC™ TIG Welding Equipment

The welds are protected from atmospheric contami-nation by shielding gas, resulting in stronger, more ductile, and more corro-sion-resistant welds than those made with the shield-ed metal arc welding meth-ods. In addition, since no flux is required welding is applicable to a wide variety of joint types. Further, cor-rosion due to flux entrap-ment cannot occur, and expensive post-welding cleaning operations are not

needed. The entire welding action takes place without spatter or sparks. Fusion welds can be made in nearly all metals such as aluminum, stainless steel, magnesium alloys, nickel and nickel-base alloys, copper, silicon-copper,

The Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process is a very popular choice for joining metals of thick-nesses less than 4 mm, where high quality, spatter-free welds with superior appearance or corrosion resistance are desired.

copper-nickel, brasses, silver, phosphor bronze, plain carbon and low-alloy steels, cast iron, and others. The process is also used for welding combinations of dissimilar metals, and for applying hard facing and surfacing materials to steel.

The Drew Marine flex neck TlG torch is excellent for the marine environment, offer-ing quality and long life, along with a simple design that is easy-to-use and adapt-able to all shipboard situations. The torch comes complete with cable, gas hose, heat shield and backcap. The Drew Marine TIG Accessory Kit, provides an assortment of collets, holders and caps for various weld-ing operations. Argon gas, tungsten elec-trodes and regulator with flowmeter must be used with a suitable power source such as the I-401S, I-401MST or I-150 inverter arc welding machines.

DESCRIPTIONThe AMERARC XL PLUS Series Air/Nitrogen Plasma Cutting Systems is especially well-suited for marine applications. The machine is based on inverter technology, providing an exceptional degree of reliability and low weight for portability. The 1O2XL Plus model is available, rated for cutting 25mm thick material under all conditions and 45mm under specific conditions (lower speed). The machine can be operated from any primary input from 208 to 460 vac +1- 10%, single or three phase, 50 or 60 Hz.

The AMERARC Plasma machine can be used to cut any metal that is electrically conductive. All steels, stainless steels, cast irons, aluminum, and copper alloys can be cut easily, quickly and cleanly. The combined effect of a high intensity arc and a hot, high velocity plasma gas results in a very clean, high speed cut. Most surfaces require only minimum cleanup and have sharp, well defined edges. Piercing, beveling and gouging can also be done with ease.

APPLICATIONSThe plasma cutting process is especially recommended for:• Routine maintenance onboard chemical carriers and other ves-

sels that have stainless steel, aluminum or other alloys not easily cut by conventional oxy-acetylene process.

• Maintenance and repair on vessels where metal cutting must be carried out in areas having little or no ventilation, where acetylene fuel gas or oxygen leaks would present a major safety problem.

• Routine maintenance on vessels that are restricted by the charterer to only a few gas cylinders onboard.

• Major steel renewal programs on vessels operating in areas of the world where the supply of larger quantities of oxygen and acetylene cannot be assured.

Auto Darken Face ShieldThe AMERARC Auto Darken Face Shield is a com-plete face shield with fully adjustable headband and the most advanced auto-darkening welding filter available. The filter automatically turns dark the instant (within 1/2000 second) the arc is struck and returns to the light condition 0.2 seconds after the arc is broken. In either the light or dark condition, the filter provides ultraviolet/infrared protection to shade 16.

The auto darken Face Shield enables the welder to strike the arc at precisely the spot where it must be struck to eliminate the risk of arc burns, which is especially critical in stainless steel welding. It also eliminates the risk of arc flashes when welding in confined, out-of-position locations or while tack welding.

TECHNIQUES FOR SPECIFIC METALS

Carbon Steel

This material can be easily gouged or cut using DCEP (reverse polarity). Normal conditions use a 35° electrode to work angle with a maximum of 7 (178 mm) electrode stickout. The air blast is always positioned between the electrode and workpiece.

Stainless Steel

These alloys can be easily gouged using the same techniques as described in carbon steel.

Aluminum

The electrode stickout should be no more than 3 (76 mm). Be careful not to touch the electrode to the work surface, as a carbon deposit will occur. The finish of the groove/cut will require a stainless steel brush to remove the black oxide (oxides not carbon) from the area. Recommend using DC Copperclad1 electrodes on DCEP (reverse polarity). If this doesn’t work well, then switch to DCEN (straight polarity).

Gray, Ductile and Malleable Cast Iron

These materials require a special operating procedure when attempting to gouge with CAC-A. It is recommended that the current range for gouging be 1000 amps or higher. This also requires using 1/2fl (12.7 mm) diameter carbons or larger. Attempts to gouge with smaller carbons will deposit refractory slag (gray crystalline surface) resulting in little or no gouging progress while burning up carbons.

Copper Base Alloys

Heat dissipation due to high conductivity of

these materials makes them more difficult

to cut or gouge than carbon steel. Use DC

electrodes with DCEN (straight polarity) at the

maximum amperage rating of the electrode.

Drew Marine Central Gas Installation (CGI) Systems comply with the requirements of the Norwegian Maritime Directorate (NMD) and the DNV (Det Norske Veritas) for new buildings or upgraded gas supply systems.

Drew Marine CGI systems are engineered especially for the marine environment. They provide a high level of safety as well as convenience of operation and flexibility. These features are high-lighted in the following brief description of the new “MANY-FLOW” CGI System.

The CGI MANY-FLOW System uses a unique, unit-body, 3-gas-control that accommodates two or three cylinder inputs, each with integral check valve. The MANY-FLOW System provides a simple method to customize the CGI system to meet the need of any ship. In the event expansion is required, additional component sets may be ordered.

Drew Marine also provides the necessary pipeline pressure regula-tion, through deck fittings, operational safety placards and venting and workshop outlet stations, for any requirement the owner, shipyard or naval architect may specify. Our engineering staff at Whippany or specialists at regional centers are prepared to assist in the design, specification and installation, as well as testing, of any standard or special custom need. Consult with your Drew Marine Account Executive for full details.

ON DECKA typical oxygen central installation includes cylinders, manifold and piping, rigidly secured to a bulkhead in order to prevent the possibility of unsafe condition in a seaway. Oxygen and acetylene systems may be mounted together in the same room if the total number of cylinders, both on line and in reserve storage, does not exceed eight (8). The Norwegian Marine Directorate requires that if the total of oxygen and acetylene cylinders exceeds eight, that separate rooms must be provided. In either case, for safety, vent-ing from the outlet on the manifold regulator must be provided to a safe area outside the storage location.

AMEROX CGI Systems

CAUTION: CHEMICALS OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIALS SHOULD NEVER BE STORED IN THE CYLINDER COMPARTMENTS.

Central Gas Installation SystemsMENU

34

Approved and specially designed clamps and bush-ings support the piping system through decks and bulkheads.

Reverse flow check valves in the acetylene and oxygen manifolds provide isolation of the individual cylinders at all times and give additional protection during changeover.

Outlet stations offer optimum control and protection for gas welding and cutting in the work-shop. The system includes an adjustable low pressure regula-tor, delivery pressure gauge and backfire valve for each gas – acetylene and oxygen.

Relief vent valves, which are required by most agencies, are an important safety feature. The manifold system requires only one adjustable, high pressure regulator which is preset for maximum delivery pressure.

Retaining racks, with easy-to-detach clamps and bushings, keep cylinders well secured while under way.

Central Gas Installation Systems

All Drew Marine AMEROX equipment, includ-ing Central Gas Installation Systems, comply with the requirements of the Norwegian Maritime Directorate. The shipyard is, of course, responsible for the installation of the system including the pipeline between the deck storage room and workshop. Drew specialists are available in major shipbuild-ing areas to advise and assist the shipyards in designing each installation to a specific owner’s requirements. Pipeline clamps and through-deck bushings are available as stan-dard components.

The selection of a central gas installation system of appropriate size and proportion should be based on the minimum capacity required to satisfy the equipment onboard, with sufficient standby storage capacity for typical voyages. For example, a minimum of two AC 40 acetylene cylinders are required, on line, to supply one 1650 liter weld-ing blowpipe. The oxygen manifold capac-ity should be 1.5 to 2 times the acetylene capacity. Thus, a 2 AC + 3 OX or a 2 AC + 4 OX system is indicated.

AMEROX CGI Systems FULLY CERTIFIED

Each workshop outlet station is equipped with backfire valves (oxygen and acetylene), as well as pressure adjusting regulators and pressure gauges, to provide an optimum and safe gas supply at the point of use.

Two or more outlet stations can be supplied from one CGI system. Drew Marine Central Engineering can design special systems tailored to a vessel’s needs.

A workshop should also include as a minimum:AMEROX® Ships CabinetAMERARC Ships CabinetAMERARC Arc Welding MachinesGas and Arc AccessoriesSafety Equipment

SAFETY WARNINGIt is extremely important to follow recommended safe practices while using welding equipment and consumables. Always wear suitable protection against ultraviolet and infrared radiation, including face shield with proper shade lens, goggles, and gloves. Always provide adequate ventilation to avoid exposure to harmful fumes and to avoid possible accumulation of explosive gases from a leak. For additional information, refer to the Drew Marine Welding Handbook. The AMERARC Arc Welding Safety Placard (PCN 9076044) is recommended for the workshop.

Refrigerants, Test and Charging Equipment

Complete Line of Refrigerant Recovery Equipment Drew Marine offers a complete line of refrigerant recovery equipment

that delivers reliability and efficiency while providing an economic

value. We are committed to helping you optimize your green profiles

with equipment that is friendly to the environment and safe for crew.

Our program along with industry-side conservation, allows a smooth

transition from chlorine-containing refrigerants, like R22, to accept-

able refrigerants, like R404A o R407C, with minimum disruption

to your operations. Our goal is to assist you in maintaining safe,

well-kept vessels that comply with regulatory requirements and

avoid costly detentions and penalties.

Drew Marine understands the challenges you face in operating your vessel

efficiently and safely, and offer all the products and technical support you

need to achieve those goals. Drew Marine strongly recommends the re-

covery and reclamation of all halogenated refrigerants and will provide the

support and expertise you need to meet MARPOL Annex VI regulations.

IMO recognizes hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerants as ozone-

depleting substances. In support of the IMO position, MARPOL Annex VI

requires specific management of R22 use in ships’ air-conditioning and

refrigeration systems. In particular, ships must eliminate the possibility of

R22 emissions as a normal course of operation.

Preventative maintenance including leak detection and repair must be

conducted on a documented, regular schedule. The on-hand refrigerant

inventory must be recorded, additions of refrigerant recorded, and system

repairs performed at the earliest practical opportunity.

IMO regulations require ships using R22 must possess the experence to operate:

• A leak detector

• A recovery machine

• A log book to record refrigerant inventory and consumption

Note that many individual flag-state, port-state and classification

society rules are more rigorous concerning the breadth of refrigerants

covered by regulation and the scope of equipment required. Addition-

ally, there are economic initiatives that warrant the practical recovery

of hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) and refrigerants.

Contact your Drew Marine representative for technical support,

product selection and recommendations for your refrigerant handling,

usage and recovery/reclamation requirements.

RECOVERY/RECYCLING/RECLAMATION The Montreal and Kyoto Protocol, in conjunction with environmental regulations in most countries, now mandate the recovery of refrigerant from a system prior to beginning service work. While most marine systems contain receivers that are capable of containing the entire system charge and can be isolated from the rest of the system, it may still be necessary to have recovery equipment on board to meet current requirements. In addi-tion, with the rising costs of all refrigerants, it makes economic sense to recover as much refrigerant as possible and recycle it back into the system, in contrast to replacing the charge with new refrigerant.

In addition to a recovery machine and charging manifold, recovery cylinders are necessary. These cylinders can be used for temporary storage or for landing used refrigerant for reclamation. Drew Marine offers 56-liter (45-kg) capacity recovery cylinders with dual port and valve connections. In an effort to stabilize the marine industry’s costs, Drew Marine has implemented a reclamation program in several ports. Our objective is to help maintain an adequate ongoing supply of R22, and HFC blends such as 404A and 407C which are replacing R22

n PROPERTIES AND PRECAUTIONS

PROPERTIES OF AMERFROST

REFRIGERANTSSTABILITYAMERFROST refrigerants are generally stable and non-corrosive.

NON FLAMMABLENone of the AMERFROST refrigerants is flam-mable or explosive.

LUBRICANT-COMPATIBLE AMERFROST refrigerants are fully compat-ible with lubricating oils commonly used in refrigeration systems.

LOW TOXICITYAMERFROST refrigerants are very low in toxicity.

PRECAUTIONSAs with all shipboard chemicals, certain basic precautions should be taken in order to avoid unnecessary risks or accidents. If in doubt, contact Drew Marine.

1. Always be sure to provide adequate venti-lation wherever the possibility of a refrig-erant leak exists. Refrigerant gases can displace air from an enclosed space and cause suffocation.

2. Avoid highly elevated temperatures where decomposition can occur and toxic by-products can form.

3. Never store cylinders in sun or in areas with ambient temperatures above 60°C.

4. Do not abuse cylinders. Do not drop or use cylinders as rollers. Do not lift a cylinder by its valve or valve cap. Keep protective cap on the cylinder when not connected to a refrigerant system.

5. Avoid contact of refrigerant with skin. It is low in toxicity but can cause freezing or frostbite because of low temperature.

6. Avoid contamination of cylinders through introduction of liquids or vapors from the refrigerant system into the cylinder.

7. Do not apply open flame to cylinder.

8. Close valve after use and when empty.

Work Safety Precautions

WORK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1. Always secure cylinders with racks, clamps or chains in an upright position during storage, transportation or use. Do not use rope.

2. Always keep the cylinder cap securely mounted on the cylinder during storage, movement or road transportation.

3. Never lift a cylinder by its valve or cap or with slings, chains or magnets. A net or an approved cradle or platform is recommended.

4. Never hammer, pry or wedge a stuck or frozen cylinder top valve to open and never use a wrench/spanner. If valve will not open by hand set cylinder aside and notify Drew Marine.

5. Do not drop cylinders.

6. Do not allow grease, oil or other combustible material to touch any part of a cylinder. This is particularly critical with oxygen cylinders.

7. Never strike an arc on a cylinder or expose a cylinder to high temperatures from oxy-acetylene flame from a torch or any other source.

8. Cylinders must be stored and used at less than 130°F (54°C).

9. Keep acetylene cylinders well separated from oxygen cylinders during storage. Six meters (20 feet) is a minimum separation unless a fire- proof barrier is erected. Provide adequate ventilation at all times. Never store cylinders with combustible materials (oil, acids or chemicals).

10. For safety, cylinder maintenance of any kind should only be carried out by authorized personnel designated by Drew Marine. Any cylinder which has a defect should be marked and set aside unused and returned to Drew Marine at the earliest opportunity.

11. Always return cylinders with some positive gas pressure. Be sure valves are closed after use in order to avoid contamination.

12. Cylinders should be used only to contain gas. They are not to be used as rollers, braces props or work platforms. Avoid any condition which might dent, nick or otherwise damage the cylinder shell.

13. Only qualified persons should handle, transport and use cylinders. No attempt should be made to transfill gas between cylinders or to mix gases.

14. Use only correct and approved regulators and regulator connections and other equipment in welding and cutting service with Drew Marine supplied welding gas cylinders.

WARNINGOxygen under pressure may react violently in contact with oil, grease or other combustible materials. Do not use oil on any welding or cutting equipment.

Pure acetylene forms dangerously explosive compounds with copper. Do not use fittings in contact with acetylene which have a copper content greater than 65 percent.

Many materials that will only char or smolder in air will flare up in the pres-ence of oxygen-rich atmosphere, e.g . clothing, gloves, cigarettes, pipes. etc. Therefore, do not allow oxygen to permeate such articles.

Never use oxygen to blow dirt or dust away from clothing.

Oxygen leaks can be as dangerous as fuel gas leaks!

Inert gases pose a serious health hazard by their ability to displace oxygen in a confined (non-ventilated) area. In absence of air in a confined area, occupants face the threat of asphyxiation and death after a very short time of exposure.

It is essential that adequate positive ventilation be provided wherever inert gases are being stored or used. Furthermore, every possible precaution should be taken to make sure that all connections of inert gas systems are tight without any leakage.

NOTICE: Drew Marine reserves the right to refuse acceptance or exchange of damaged, contaminated or otherwise unservice-able cylinders.

FOR SAFETY ONBOARD, SOME SAFETY PROCEDURES TO REMEMBER

1. Never allow oil or grease on any regulator or top valve. The combination of oxygen at high pressure with the lubricant can cause a violent explosion.

2. Be sure all gas connections are tight. Leaks are potentially hazardous. If in question, use soap and water solution to check for leakage.

3. Never use oxygen to blow off chips or clean clothing. It’s not air and can cause injury.

4. A torch is not a hammer. For your safety, don’t use it as one.

5. Open cylinder valves slowly and when changing cylinders clean the valve with a short blast of gas to remove any foreign material before mounting regulator.

6. Acetylene is potentially hazardous when combined with copper. Use only brass or steel in contact with acetylene.

7. Never strike an arc on gas cylinders.

8. Protect your eyes.

9. Only use approved AMEROX® equipment and parts.

10. Always close top valves tightly before removing cylinder regulators, even when the cylinder is empty, and replace the valve protection caps.

The electrode exhibits high burn-off rates and high welding speeds and therefore for starts and on heavy sections preheating may be required. The residual slag is corrosive and should be completely removed following welding. Tensile Strength: 235 N/mm2

160 - 180AC/DC (-)

AMERARC CH is specifically designed for gouging out cracks, or back gouging of welds and for joint preparation. Its thick, specially-developed coating produces a strong plasma and gas jet which removes the material melted by the arc. AMERARC CH may be used for gouging most engineering materials such as steel, stainless cast iron and many non-ferrous metals. The resulting grooves are smooth and even and welding may follow immediately after gouging except on stainless steel, which should be thoroughly cleaned prior to welding. Either AC or DC negative polarity may be used. The electrode should be struck perpendicular to the work and then pointed in the direction of travel at an angle of approximately 20 degrees to the perpendicular. Travel speed of l00-150 CM/Min should be maintained. AMERARC CH can also be used for cutting and piercing holes. Good ventilation in closed areas is recommended.
