interesting and noteworthy is the weight difference of the filled gases depending on the mixture. For example, a stage filled to 200 bar with oxygen weighs almost 1.5 kg more than a stage with TX18 / 45. In general, a comparison of the gas weights is already fascinating:
80 cuft stage (200 bar at 20 C)
- oxygen - 3.47 kg
- EAN50 - 3.07
- Air - 2.86 kg
- TX 18/45 - 1,543 kg
