Cylinder Securing Unit

Name: Cylinder Connection Unit
Brand: Tecnomed

The Cylinder Securing Unit is a compact and durable solution that provides safe and organized storage by fixing medical or industrial gas cylinders to the wall. It prevents cylinders from tipping/swaying in hospital gas rooms, laboratories, and industrial storage areas, increases space efficiency, and facilitates access. The Tecnomed design minimizes vibration and accidental contact risks with separate compartments and chain systems for each cylinder.

Healthcare professionals monitoring medical gas systems to ensure safe and efficient gas supply.

What Is a Cylinder Securing Unit?

Thanks to the modular wall-mounted carrier, cylinders are kept upright and secure. Configuration options for 2, 3, or 5 cylinders provide flexible layout possibilities suitable for different storage capacities. Since independent access to each cylinder is possible, replacement operations are fast and controlled; it saves space in narrow gas cabinets or on technical walls.

Advantages

Its wall-mounted architecture saves floor space and improves organization in technical areas. The compartmented design and chain securing prevent cylinders from contacting each other, providing stability and safety. Thanks to its modular structure, expandable solutions can be produced for different numbers of cylinders; independent access shortens replacement times.

Accessories

Chain sets (cylinder body securing)
Wall mounting anchor/screw kits
Cylinder identification/labeling plates
Protective bumpers and guide accessories

Configuration Options

2 / 3 / 5-cylinder carrier assembly
RAL color options (in line with facility standards)
Additional securing points / bottom support profiles (according to project needs)

Quality Certificates and Certifications

ISO 9001:2015, ISO 13485:2016 (manufacturing quality management)
ISO 14001:2015, ISO 45001:2018 (environment/occupational health management)

Note: Since the product is a mechanical securing device, it is recommended to be used together with the relevant facility safety procedures and local regulations.

Applications

Hospital gas rooms, manifold/technical walls, laboratories, and industrial storage areas. All facilities where oxygen, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and medical air cylinders must be stored safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should be considered during wall mounting?

Anchors/screws suitable for the structure of the load-bearing wall should be selected, and mounting points should be marked to distribute the load evenly. A safe mounting height with secure access should be preferred, away from installation routes.

Is it compatible with different diameters/types of cylinders?

Yes. It is designed to be compatible with common medical and industrial cylinder sizes. The chain securing area is positioned at an adjustable height; it securely grips the cylinder body.

Can a strap be used instead of a chain?

The standard solution is a chain; depending on project requirements, a high-strength strap alternative can be evaluated. In both methods, it is essential that the cylinder body is held tightly and evenly.

What is the advantage in areas with limited floor space?

Wall mounting keeps cylinders in an upright position and frees up floor space; it increases passage and working area in narrow technical rooms. Independent access makes single-cylinder replacement easier.

How are corrosion and surface durability ensured?

The galvanized body provides corrosion resistance; electrostatic paint offers additional protection and enables color coding. Surface integrity should be monitored through periodic visual inspection.

Is maintenance required?

Since it has no mechanical parts, it does not require routine maintenance; periodic checks of the chain and fasteners are sufficient. If wear is detected, the relevant part should be replaced during planned downtime.
