Resources from Brown\u2019s Gas Book 2 and for\u00a0BG<\/a>\u00a0Book 2 Update<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Manufacturers listed here are specific to items and supplies needed for the projects in Brown\u2019s Gas Book 2.<\/p>\n

If you are looking for parts from manufacturers or suppliers that I use for several projects, see the \u2018General Manufacturers\u2019 page to find their contact information (I list only in one location so that I do not have to find all the locations when there is a change).<\/p>\n

Though these manufacturers and suppliers are listed, be advised to \u2018Let your fingers do the walking\u2019.\u00a0 Try to locate various alternative suppliers and options.\u00a0 Doing this may save you a great deal of money.\u00a0 You\u2019ll also learn a lot about the available options on components you are trying to locate. \u00a0If you find good alternatives, let us know so we can tell other experimenters like yourself<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Thomas Directory of Manufacturers is a great resource, available in most public libraries.\u00a0 You can go looking for a component, like a pressure switch and find pages of manufacturers. \u00a0They are now available online.<\/p>\n

Using Surplus suppliers you can often get great deals on components that are described well enough that you\u2019ll be safe using them; like heavy duty relays, diodes, heat-sinks, capacitors, etc.\u00a0\u00a0Be careful with components that have \u2018wetted parts\u2019 like pressure switches and pressure gauges, because they could have material compatibility problems.<\/em><\/p>\n

Also, remember that I wrote this book before there was an internet. \u00a0Now you can look up these and many other suppliers online. \u00a0Surf the internet to savings\u00a0\"\ud83d\ude42\"\u00a0If you are concerned with putting your credit card information online, use PayPal or a disposable credit card.<\/p>\n

Direct Acting Pressure Switch:<\/strong>
\nManufactured by Hobbs, sold by Stewart Warner
\nThis is one component I suggest you buy new. \u00a0It\u2019s pretty vital.
\nFor projects in BG Book 2, I prefer the 5000 series, similar to the 76578
\nfactory set at 10 psi (it\u2019s adjustable by the user)
\nNormally closed, open on pressure rise
\ntwo pole, screw terminals
\nIron base, PTFE diaphram
\nAfter market modifications<\/em><\/strong>
\n1. Make a small hole in the adjustment chamber plug by cutting off the knob.
\nThis prevents hydrogen, which will leak through\/past the diaphram, from
\nbuilding up pressure that skews the switch setpoint.
\n2. Resize (drill out) the gas orifice to 1\/8\u2033
\nBe VERY careful not to damage the internal components or
\nto allow metal filings into the switch. \u00a0This prevents\u00a0lye\u00a0crystals from
\neventually plugging the tiny orifice. \u00a0Drill using progressively larger bits.<\/p>\n

Plastic Pressure Relief Valves:<\/strong><\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.filterchem.com\/plastic-pressure-relief-valves.cfm#added<\/a>\u00a0:
\nPart # Size Pressure Material Price Qty.
\nFC-MPR-25-1 1\/4\u2033 10-80 PSI PVC $170.00<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.plastomatic.com\/rvd.html
\n<\/a>RVD 025 V-PV \u00a0is $162.00<\/p>\n

Either one will work OK for up to 2000 L\/hr, I\u2019ve tested them both.
\nI prefer the Plastomatic one because it withstood backfires better.<\/p>\n

You need a little bracket and you\u2019ll Tee into the BG out hose for maximum safety (don\u2019t put it in the pressure gauge hose because the water in the mini-bubbler can freeze\u2026 And if venting at full volume you\u2019ll push too much water out of the mini-bubbler, leaving the gauge and pressure switch unprotected.<\/p>\n

Here is a video showing a test of the pressure relief (hacer clic<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Surplus Capacitors:<\/strong>
\nI always get my\u00a0experimental<\/em>\u00a0oil filled capacitors from surplus businesses. \u00a0Saves me bunches of money. \u00a0I only start buying \u2018commercial\u2019 capacitors when I make a production run of machines, because then everything must match. \u00a0With one-off projects it doesn\u2019t matter if the components don\u2019t match, just so they meet the important specs.
\nTry this place (hacer clic<\/a>) The larger capacitors are at the end of the list.<\/p>\n

You can also pick up your\u00a0heat sinks<\/strong>\u00a0and a lot of other components at such surplus places online.<\/p>\n

Main Electronic Relay:<\/strong>
\nI\u2019ve used several over the years and have to say I\u2019m really impressed with Opto 22 (hacer clic<\/a>) and that\u2019s where I\u2019d recommend you buy your solid state relay (SSR).<\/p>\n

Float Switch:<\/strong>
\nFor my electrolyzers I like to use the M5000 from Madison (hacer clic<\/a>). \u00a0I know of several others and you can even find good alternatives on eBay.<\/p>\n

Check Valve:<\/strong>
\nI like to use an acetylene torch handle check valve from Air Liquide. \u00a0I also buy the fittings to adapt it to a 1\/4\u2033 inline hose application. I then use it in all my electrolyzers for water filling.
\nWES-CV8L:\u00a0Check Valve,Torch,West.,Fuel Gases,Male B to Female B Nut, LH,CGA023
\nThe key to these inexpensive check valves is to check them for leakage right away.
\nI find about 10% of them leak right from the factory. \u00a0I check them by blowing
\nbackward through them with a hose attached into a glass of water. \u00a0If you see even
\none bubble, the check valve is bad. \u00a0They will replace defective ones.

\nWES-8: 2 of Nut,Hose,Western,Fuel Gas,B,LH
\nWES-17: 2 of\u00a0Nipple,Hose,Barbed,Western,6MM \u00a01\/4\u2033barbed to Male B<\/p>\n

Pressure Guage:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I used a NF25S-2B\/U from Weiss Instruments, Inc. \u00a0It is a liquid\u00a0filled design (higher quality and dust free) but with no liquid in it\u00a0(because liquid impedes the fast operation needed if there is an\u00a0explosion\/implosion).<\/p>\n
