De-Greased Copper Pipework
When installing copper pipelines MultiGas use nothing less than medical grade degreased copper, manufactured by a UK supplier.
De-greased copper pipes are particularly important in applications where cleanliness and the absence of contaminants are critical, such as in medical pipeline installations and equipment, semiconductor manufacturing, and food processing industries.
Copper pipes are commonly used in plumbing and other applications due to their excellent corrosion resistance and heat conductivity. However, during the manufacturing or handling of copper pipes, they may come into contact with oils or greases, which can be detrimental to their performance in certain applications
Removing grease and oil residues ensures that the copper pipe can function effectively and maintain the purity of the substances it carries.
Degreased copper pipe must meet the highest of levels conforming to the following with BS EN 13348, BS EN 1057, BS 2871 Part 1 Table X, EN 7396, and HTM 02-01.

Vacuum Plant
A vacuum plant system for laboratory or industrial environments which require high purity gases is designed to create and maintain a low pressure or vacuum conditions suitable for handling and processing gases with exceptionally high purity requirements.
All vacuum systems are designed to a bespoke specification for each application to create and maintain the desired vacuum level for the system, within the design an element of future proofing is considered for potential increase in demand and extension of the system.
Common types of vacuum pumps include rotary vane pumps, turbo pumps, cryogenic pumps, and ion pumps. These pumps work in tandem or in series to achieve the necessary pressure levels.
The Vacuum plant is often located within a controlled environment known as a cleanroom, to minimise contamination and maintain the purity of the gases being processed.
Regular maintenance and servicing of the equipment are essential to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the vacuum plant system. This includes routine inspections, lubrication, and replacement of worn components.

Gas Cylinder Manifolds / Control Panel
The role of a high purity gases manifold serves as a centralised system for the distribution and regulation of gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide.
The manifold assembly is the central hub of the system where multiple gas cylinders are connected. It typically consists of a series of valves, regulators, gauges, and interconnecting piping. These systems are installed in varied settings, industrial, laboratories, medical facilities, and other environments where precise control and distribution of gases are required.
The control panel provides a user interface for operating and monitoring the gas distribution system. It may include controls for adjusting gas flow rates, switching between different gas sources, and safety features such as emergency shut-off valves.
Within the design of a manifold system often an alarm system may be incorporated to alert operators of abnormal conditions such as pressure fluctuations, leaks, or other potential hazards.

Gas Cylinder Change Alarm
Multigas can design and build and manage your high purity gas project from concept, through to ongoing maintenance.
A gas manifold system relies on a cylinder changeover alarm which is integrated into the gas distribution system. Where uninterrupted supply is required, a backup or reserve group of cylinders are incorporated which contain the same gas as the primary supply.
This system ensures a continuous and reliable gas supply by automatically switching between multiple gas cylinders when one depletes, while also providing audible or visual alerts to notify staff of the changeover.

Gas Detection Systems
A gas detection system is a vital safety mechanism used in various industries and environments to monitor the presence of hazardous gases and alert personnel to potential dangers. These systems are crucial for ensuring the safety of workers, preventing accidents, and complying with HSE and COSHH regulations.
The gas detection systems incorporate sensors designed to detect specific gases or vapours. These sensors can be electrochemical, catalytic, infrared, or semiconductor-based, depending on the type of gas they are designed to detect. Common gases monitored include methane, carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide, oxygen, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
The detection of this gases is monitored by the integration of a central control system which received data and continually evaluates the quantity of gases in the working environment from gas detection sensors and sampling pumps. These systems designed with preset thresholds bespoke to the environment setting and gases used. If the gas concentration exceeds the preset thresholds the alarm system will activate with audible and visual alarms, to alert personnel to the presence of hazardous gases. The gas detection systems also incorporate remote alarm panels located in areas to inform trained staff in the event of an failure or emergency.

Commissioning & Testing
Multigas commission and test all installations to industry accepted methodology.
Commissioning of laboratory and industrial gas systems is a crucial process that ensures the safe, efficient, and reliable operation of these systems. Whether it’s in a research laboratory, manufacturing facility, or any other industrial setting, commissioning involves a series of steps to verify that the gas systems are designed, installed, and functioning correctly.
Generally Multigas commission installations in accordance with BCGA CP4 guidance. Other guidance is followed when appropriate.
