Large Tip Cutting Torch Oxygen Flow

Large tip cutting torches require high oxygen flow rates to operate properly. Flow rate requirements of +/- 1000 scfh are commonly encountered. It is also common for users to try and feed these large tip torches from a single liquid cylinder that has a vaporizing flow capacity of only +/- 300 scfh. The ineffectiveness of this has been discussed in previous articles, but never shown like this new video from Victor

Hit the link and it should load right up. It provides a great explanation of the challenge of running large tip torches and the benefits of having proper liquid oxygen vaporization.

By the way- The side mount vaporizers shown are manufactured by West Cryogenics, Inc. and distributed by Eddie's Welding Supply and other gas and welding distributors.
