An automatic pressure building system makes the easycarb™ a self contained gas
supply system capable of providing gas at maximum continuous flow rates of up to
10.0 lb./hr. (4.5 kg/hr.) See Specification Chart below for desired EC Model.
The easycarb™ is designed to supply gas from the pressurized space that is above
the liquid inside the container. If high-demand applications cause the pressure in this
space to drop below 125 psig (8.6 bar/862kPa), the pressure building regulator opens
to maintain the gas pressure level. The container will hold liquid with no loss as long
as a product is used at a rate listed in the Specification Chart below.
The gas supply line is equipped with a check valve to prevent back flow into the
easycarb™. Back flow could carry contaminants that could freeze in the cold plumb-
ing parts, making the easycarb™ inoperative.
Solid CO
2
(dry ice) will form if the pressure in the easycarb™ is allowed to drop below
70 psig (4.8bar/483 kPa). In service, the pressure is maintained well above this value
to ensure that solid CO
2
(dry ice) will not form inside the container.

Taylor Wharton’s easycarb™ carbon dioxide system is designed to be permanently
installed. The system consists of a specifically designed container that stores carbon
dioxide in the liquid state, and fill connection hardware to allow refilling from outside
the building in which it is installed.
