Valve Outlet Details
The valve outlets on all containers supplied by BOC Special Gases conform to recognised national and international standards.
In the UK we normally supply containers fitted with valves in accordance with BS 341, but alternative valve options can be supplied if requested.
Valve outlets
Differences in valve outlets are used to assist with the segregation of chemically different gases. This is in addition to identification of the product by means of container labelling or stencilling.
It is important to ensure that the connections on regulators and other equipment connected directly to the container valve match those on the container valve outlets.
Connections that do not fit properly must never be forced.
If in any doubt please contact us on 0800 02 0800 for advice.
