Help wanted Co2

rusty · 02-02-2005, 08:30 AM

I have a Large Co2 unit that I wish to use to connect up to a Co2 reactor.
The unit is pressurised to 50bar. I also have a argon flow meter that I can reg to 50bar and less. but I want to know if it is poss to use these two items and what else I would need before it connects to a calcium reactor. I have a deltec reg that came with a small Co2 bottle but this only last a month and cant get them recharged over her in the rep of irelan. hence the large Co2 unit which I can.
all advice welcome

Hey Rusty

I would take the parts to a welding shop and explain to them what you are trying to do and see if they recommend it. You might want to tell them that it is important for you to finely regulate your CO2 dispersion for the application. Remember these are welding guys not reef tank guys....but chances are if you can do what you want they can help you. HTH
