What is calibration and why is it so important?
Calibration is crucial in gas mixing. Aimed at adjusting and verifying systems against a set of established standards, it ensures your gas mixing equipment is dispensing gas accurately and safely.
The importance of calibration cannot be overstated, especially when the accuracy of your gas mixtures has a direct impact on your products and processes. In industries such as gas analysis, food packaging, beverage dispensing, welding and manufacturing and more, the smallest deviation from your intended gas composition can lead to faulty results, compromised product quality, or regulatory non-compliance.
Proper calibration is an investment. By opting for an equipment calibration once every five years, you can maintain the consistency of your gas mixtures and safeguard the reliability of your gas mixing process. You’ll be ensuring that your analytical measurements are precise, your food products are packaged effectively, your beverages are dispensed accurately and your welds are of the highest quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs that my gas mixer needs maintenance?
We suggest inspecting the gas mixer shortly after it is installed, and then once a year after that to ensure only clean and dry gases are being used. To verify its operation, you can compare it to the as-made test certificate that accompanies the mixer.
What safety precautions should I take when using gas mixing equipment?
Gas mixing systems operate at high pressures, which can be dangerous if not handled responsibly and with proper guidance.
How can I keep my gas mixer running smoothly?
To keep your gas mixer running smoothly and extend its lifespan, regular maintenance is key. Here are a few tips for maintaining your gas mixer…
Is it necessary to calibrate my gas mixer regularly?
Calibration of your gas mixer is only necessary if you want to modify it or if you’ve encountered issues with the quality of your gas supply.
Why is gas mixer maintenance so important?
A BSL gas mixer is built to last but still needs some maintenance. Despite being durable, gases at certain pressures can cause rubber components to deteriorate.
How can I safely perform maintenance on my gas mixer?
We provide Work Instructions that outline how to perform certain tasks, but it is always best to undertake a risk assessment before attempting any maintenance work on a gas mixing panel. This ensures a safe method of working for all those involves, and we are happy to assist you if you have any doubts or questions.
How can I troubleshoot issues with my gas mixing system?
When you receive your gas mixing system, you will also receive a detailed instruction manual, a test certificate for your gas mixer and a warranty statement.
What happens if I lose a supply gas to my BSL mixing panel?
Our pressure mechanical system diligently monitors all gas supplies. If one of the gas supplies is absent, the mixer will cease to pass any gas, ensuring safety and control.
Which rubber materials are best for oxygen use?
Each major Industrial Gas Company has its own preferences and there are also references from organisations like the British Compressed Gases Association, of which BSL are fully registered members.
Can I calibrate my BSL gas analyser myself?
Please email the serial number to solutions @bslgastech.com and we will be happy to provide you with data and information for your BSL analyser free of charge.
