Linde introduces new grade of cylinder gas regulator to the North American industrial market

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Feb. 4, 2015 /CNW/ -- Linde Canada Limited is introducing the world's first single stage regulator that performs like a multi stage regulator to the North American industrial market.

This ground-breaking SMOOTHFLO™ regulator continuously delivers optimal flow independent of cylinder pressure. The high level of pressure stability and reduction of internal forces has significant benefits for the gas user in terms of increased efficiency, performance and improved product life.

With improved safety as a key driver of the innovative new design, the multi-patented SMOOTHFLO™ is one of the safest gas regulators in its class.

The outer cladding of the SMOOTHFLO™ regulator is manufactured from a robust, impact-resistant and fire-retardant nylon-based material and affords robust pressure gauge protection.

"Linde has always played a pioneering role in the compressed gases industry and we are constantly innovating in order to provide customers with not only the most efficient and effective solutions to meet their gas handling needs, but the safest ones," said Mike Clune, Project Manager Marketing.
