R OVER 50 YEARS OF SAFFIRE – THE SAFE REVOLUTION <strong>Murex</strong> <strong>Welding</strong> Products Saffire brand celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2006. Since the introduction of the first Saffire nozzle mix gas welding and cutting system, the brand has become synonymous with absolute safety in all aspects of oxy-fuel welding and cutting. 1956 was the debut year of the Saffire nozzle mix gas welding and cutting system, which fundamentally rewrote the principles and working methods of gas mixing along the lines of safety. The idea of using a nozzle mixing, high-pressure system was quite well known at the time, but although its safety advantages were recognised, Saffire was the first to put it into practice. Consequently, Saffire was enormously successful from day one. A market leader from the start, Saffire has grown and changed with improvements since then, but the principle – Safety First – has always been the motivating force behind all developments. One of the immediate effects Saffire had was the simplifying of the oxy/fuel welding and cutting procedure, and by making the equipment virtually maintenance free, we had also ensured that mixing and handling two of the most reactive gases known was no longer a high-risk operation. In 1966 the new innovative blowpipe, Saffire 3, won a Design Centre Award. The original Saffire nozzle mix gas welding and cutting blowpipe has today evolved in the Saffire 5. In 2005 is was estimated that there could have been as many as half a million in use throughout the world. Versatility in use and on-going product developments have been instrumental to the success of the Saffire brand. Its application area is immense throughout all sectors of industry and it can be used for heating with acetylene and propane, flame cleaning, rivet cutting, circle cutting, gouging and sheet cutting. It is a system that provides a solution for so many jobs on a day-to-day basis in the workplace. From the original nozzle mix system, the Saffire gas product range has been dramatically developed to embrace flashback arrestors, regulators and other devices all synonymous with Safety First. Today flashback arrestors are fitted to all oxy-fuel welding/cutting systems and the use of this product is universally recognised as good procedure by Health & Safety Executives and factory inspectors. All Saffire products are now supplied under the quality management system of BS EN ISO 9001. Saffire was, and still is, a truly earth shaking revolution – and it remains the safest yet. As we’ve said since 1956, “Make it Saffire, Keep it Safe.” 33
R Saffire 300 Series 2+ Multi-Stage Regulators The Multi-stage series employ the principles of 2-stage gas control to provide precise and accurate delivery pressures under all conditions. This ensures the regulators are able to cover a full range of service requirements from fusion welding through to high integrity laboratory applications. The Saffire 300 Series 2+ regulators are the flagship models of the Saffire range. These multi-stage regulators are fully 300 bar capable whilst retaining the sensitivity and accuracy necessary for precise control. The regulators are fully compliant and certified to BS EN ISO 2530. As with all Saffire products these are manufactured under the quality management systems of BS EN ISO 9001. • 1st stage reduces the inlet pressure allowing very accurate adjustment through the 2nd stage • Fully compliant and certified to BS EN ISO 2503 with quality management to ISO 9001 • High strength brass body with operational data permanently engraved • High specification safety device to protect the user • Full 300 bar inlet capability • Solid bulkhead gauges • Stainless and Neoprene diaphragms • KelF micro valve in first stage • Broad seat A92 valve in second stage Laboratory Regulators The Saffire Laboratory range provides both top and side entry connections to accommodate different cylinder valves. All components are purpose designed for non-corrosive high pressure gas service.1st stage diaphragm is coated stainless steel for high integrity leak tightness needed for “light” gases. NEVOC Regulator The trend in Europe to increased cylinder filling pressures has led to the adoption of a separate cylinder valve connection for industrial applications above 250 bar. The connection is designated “NEVOC” – New European Valve Outlet Connection. In practice cylinders filled above 250 bar and up to and including 300 bar will be fitted with NEVOC valves. Cylinders filled up to and including 250 bar will continue to use the standard BS 341 connection. This change will have the added benefit of being adopted across Europe. 34
