Improving cylinder filling efficiency with WEH® CGA Gas ConnectorsJust push WEH gas connector onto / into your gas cylinder thread. No wrench tightening or thread sealants needed. WEH gas connectors are the best choice for improving cylinder filling efficiency by reducing operating times. The types TW54 and TW57 connect directly to CGA 580 / CGA 540, DIN, NF, BS, CEN cylinder valve thread (others on request). A large variety of actuation loops and levers is available. WEH offers a complete product range for a large variety of gases and gas mixures, e.g. inert gases, oxygen, nitrogen, propane, acetylene, CO2, medical gases etc. WEH® Connection solutions for gaseous applications connect directly to the cylinder valve thread and provide a pressure-tight connection in seconds. WEH® Filling Connectors are available for valve configurations having internal or external threads (with or without a residual pressure valve) or PIN-Index connections. Improve your productivity using the unique WEH® Connector for gas filling applications.

WEH® Accessories | Improved efficiency for gas fillingVarious adapter models are required to fill gas cylinders with differing cylinder valves. The TK350-TN350 quick release system by WEH® ensures quick and easy WEH adapter changes. The bayonet lock releases the first adapter immediately and connects to the next adapter just as quickly. You save time and money. The 360° TD1 swivel joint is a perfect choice for moving a depressurised WEH® adapter into the perfect connection position. The swivel joint also prevents the filling hose from twisting.
The split collet design system locks securely onto the cylinder valve thread and seals tightly.
The WEH® TW57 is also available for 200 bar systems as well as for residual pressure valves.
This WEH® Quick Connector is available for gas cylinder valves acc. to DIN, BS, NF, CGA etc.
Connectors for oxygen applications are oxygen cleaned and free of oil and grease.
