Which type of gas should i pick for a purified glove box?
The glove box should be supplied with inert gas with a 2 bars pressure. Normally, the inert gas chosen is nitrogen or argon and in some cases helium.
Regeneration requires a bottle composed either of hydrogen and inert gas or inert gas alone according to the glove box’ purification type;
