ReiCat helium recycling for high-pressure gas quenching
Metallurgy often relies on nitrogen for gas quenching. However, if a high quenching rate is required, helium is the material of choice. Helium is used for clean and reliable high-pressure gas quenching, particularly for high-quality steel and where only minor dimensional and shape changes are required. The topic of environmental protection (circular economy) is also playing an increasingly important role.
The ReiCat system for helium recycling in the picture has an output of 400 Nm³/h. The small space requirement – less than 3 m² – simplifies implementation in the existing gas supply on site. It is remarkable that more than 95 % of the helium required can be recovered here too. Impurities such as O2 and moisture are removed and ensure the required high degree of purity. Operating costs are directly reduced, and our proven system offers maximum availability in continuous operation. Shortest amortization times make the system pay for itself quickly. ReiCat gas recycling offers safe operation and actively renewable energy.
