what kind of setup are you guys running to back purge tubing and manifolds and stuff? are you just capping the ends and using the torch to and purge function on the machine to purge the piece, or do you run a tee off the bottle and seperate regulator with a "purge" hose sepperate from the torch?

awesome, thanks aaron. also i just got back from vacation yesterday and found my flanges waiting for me and everything looks good, thanks for getting them out as fast as you could.

 

any one else have any other pics of what they use

 

there are a couple threads on here about back purging. some people have posted their setups. just search a bit, they shouldn't be too hard to find.

 

yeah i tried to look around a little but this new search feature sucks. i ended up just making one similar to yours.

 

The only thing that sucks with T'ing off of the regulator that goes to the machine is that you don't know how much gas is flowing to the backpurge, and how much is going to your torch. Having Two regulators is an ideal setup, even two tanks with a regulator on each is even better.

 

yeah i thought about that, but regulators are pretty expensive aren't they?
