How ProSolv Works:
Built-in Gauge Lets You Know When the Cylinder is Empty
Thread any standard propane, propylene, mapp or calibration gas cylinder to the bottom opening of the ProSolv system. Briefly pressing the Gauge Activation Button shows you, with an obvious red or green indicator, whether or not a propane cylinder is empty.
Residual Propellant is Filtered of VOCs
The Activated Carbon Filter threads directly to the threaded opening, one of the safety features incorporated into the system. The filter addresses air quality and emissions standards in two ways:
1) Dry propellant moves through the Activated Carbon Cartridge, which absorbs hydrocarbons and odor. It also acts as a secondary flashback arrestor during the recycling process.
2) The Activated Carbon Cartridge contains 1 1/4 pounds of activated carbon. Made from ground coconut shell, the activated carbon promotes rapid evacuation of the propellant.
Remove the sealing sleeve and internal valve stem
Once the propane cylinder is depressurized of all propellant, the sealing sleeve and internal valve stem must be removed for recycling.
ProSolv Recycling Certification Tag
Insert the ProSolv certification tag for guaranteed recycling. The forty steel recycling certification tags provided with each carbon cartridge serve as the filter replacement indicator. For maximum efficiency, the filter should be replaced when all the tags have been used.
Now You Can Recycle the RCRA Compliant Propane Cylinder
After inserting the steel recycling certification tag, ProSolv leaves you with an empty steel cylinder with no compressed gas. It can now be safely recycled with your other scrap steel.
De-pressurized cans can meet the EPA definition of scrap metal 40 CFR 261.1(c)(6)
ProSolv Also Helps By:
Automatically Preventing Static Build-Up
Each system is shipped with an Anti-Static Wire. This provides convenient installation, anywhere in your plant. The six-foot wire prevents static build-up by grounding the unit, as required by OSHA.
Relieving the Pressure of Propane-Cylinder Disposal
With ProSolv, you can safely remove the sealing sleeve and internal valve stem, relieve the pressure, and filter the propellant. Recycling the depressurized propane cylinder eliminates an entire category of hazardous waste from your waste stream.
