Cabinet-Mounted Mobile Simple Gas Distribution System
The BTE Series Cabinet-Mounted Mobile Simple Gas Distribution System is a compact, transportable solution designed for flexible gas supply in laboratory and industrial thermal processing applications. Engineered for ease of use and efficient operation, this system integrates multiple gas channels into a rugged, wheeled cabinet that can be easily moved between workstations—making it ideal for shared lab spaces, multi-process setups, or temporary installations.
Designed for low-pressure, low-flow gas delivery, the BTE mobile unit supports both single-gas and mixed-gas operations with reliable flow control and real-time monitoring. It enables seamless switching between gases such as nitrogen (N₂), argon (Ar), hydrogen (H₂), and forming gas without introducing atmospheric contamination into the process chamber—ensuring consistent and safe operation.
With its combination of mobility, simplicity, and precision, this system offers a cost-effective yet robust alternative to fixed gas panels, especially in environments where space efficiency and operational flexibility are key priorities.
Key Features
- Portable Cabinet Design: Equipped with durable casters and a compact footprint, allowing easy movement and repositioning across labs or production areas.
- Multi-Gas Compatibility: Available in 2-, 3-, and 4-channel configurations to support various gas mixing needs.
- Integrated Mass Flow Meters: High-precision sensors provide real-time monitoring of gas pressure and flow rate, all displayed on a single panel for intuitive operation.
- Cumulative Flow & Time Tracking: Supports cumulative flow measurement and elapsed time recording—valuable for process documentation and gas consumption analysis.
- Automatic Pressure Regulation: Maintains stable output pressure even under variable inlet conditions, ensuring consistent gas delivery.
- Overpressure Protection: Built-in safety valves prevent system damage and enhance operational safety during unexpected pressure spikes.
- Flexible Startup Options: Supports both simultaneous and individual channel activation, enabling customized gas sequencing for different processes.
- Online Concentration Mixing: Enables real-time adjustment of gas ratios for controlled atmosphere applications (e.g., annealing, sintering).
- Standardized Output Connections: All outlet ports feature 1/4″ double ferrule fittings (Swagelok® compatible), ensuring compatibility with standard lab tubing and vacuum systems.
- Compact & Practical Layout: All controls, displays, and connections are located on one side panel for convenient access and maintenance.
