Dissolved-acetylene cylinders, filled & certified

Acetylene (DA) Gas Cylinder Supplier & Manufacturer

IIGAS supplies dissolved-acetylene (DA) gas cylinders — filled, tested and certified — for oxy-acetylene welding, cutting and process use. We manufacture acetylene, fill the cylinders and build the plants that fill them, so quality is controlled end to end.

Why acetylene is stored in DA cylinders

Acetylene cannot be safely compressed in an ordinary cylinder — it can decompose under pressure. Instead it is dissolved in acetone or DMF held in a porous mass that fills the cylinder, which lets the gas be stored and transported safely at working pressure. This is why an acetylene cylinder is called a dissolved-acetylene (DA) cylinder.

IIGAS fills DA cylinders correctly charged with solvent over a sound porous mass, so you get the right amount of acetylene, a safe cylinder and consistent gas flow on site.

Filled, tested and documented

  • ✓Dissolved-acetylene cylinders for welding, cutting and process use
  • ✓Charged with acetone or DMF over a porous mass for safe storage
  • ✓Correct fill, leak-tested and ready for oxy-acetylene use
  • ✓Manufactured and tested to the relevant Indian Standards (e.g. IS 308, IS 8451)
  • ✓Single cylinders, banks and quads for higher demand
  • ✓Documented quality and traceability for audits

From the gas to the cylinder — one source

Because IIGAS generates the acetylene, purifies and dries it, compresses it and fills the cylinders, we control purity and fill end to end — and we also build the acetylene plants, generators and DA cylinder filling systems for customers who want to fill their own. Whether you need cylinders supplied, or a plant to fill them, talk to us.

Handled correctly, DA cylinders are safe and dependable; see our guidance on handling and storing acetylene cylinders, and ask us about flashback arrestors for safe oxy-acetylene work.
