Unlike analogue manometers, digital manometers contain a pressure transducer that deflects under pressure. Digital manometers are more accurate than their analogue counterpart and are also easy to read.
The Bromic Manometer Kit provides additional features including:
A digital manometer is used to detect gas leaks and faults in air conditioning systems. It can also be used for monitoring and maintaining HVAC systems and gas pressure in piping and compressor systems. Read more
Empty disposable gas cylinders can be dropped off at your local hazardous waste facility which you can find on Recycling Near You (we recommend contacting to see if they accept your type of gas cylinder). Read our full gas cylinder disposable guide here.
The Oxyset (1811167-2) can be used to braze copper pipes up to 1.5″ (38mm) in diameter. Whilst oxy-acetylene produces a higher flame temperature, oxy-map produces a high flame temperature suitable for many brazing applications. Due to its compact size and weight, the Oxyset is an ideal companion for plumbers, gas-fitters and HVAC technicians.
As the highest-pressure disposable cylinder in the market, Bromic 1L Oxygen Disposable Cylinder provides more gas in a compact cylinder. When used with the Oxyset tip #1 and Map//Pro gas, the Bromic 1L Oxygen Disposable Cylinder allows roughly 45 minutes of run time. Actual consumption rates may differ depending on the user and settings.
| Nozzle Supplied with Oxyset 1811167-2 | Oxygen (1L cylinder) | Fuel Gas (400g cylinder) |
|---|---|---|
| #1 | 160 g/h (45 mins) | 35 g/h (11.0 h) |
| #2 | 260 g/h (30 mins) | 70 g/h (5.5 h) |
| #3 | 290 g/h (25 mins) | 105 g/h (3.5 h) |
| #4 | 380 g/h (20 mins) | 135 g/h (2.5 h) |
| #5 | 535 g/h (15 mins) | 200 g/h (2.0 h) |
The OXYSET (1811167-2) is fuelled by a disposable oxygen cylinder (T-PED approval number 0036) and
a disposable MAP//Pro cylinder (complying with DOT39). We recommend using Bromic oxygen
cylinders (P/N 1811320) and BernzOmatic MAP//Pro cylinders (P/N 1811120).
Whilst Loxeal 18-10 is designed for medium-pressure gas applications, Loxeal 58-11 is designed for high-pressure gas and water applications.

Thread-sealing compounds are usually solvent-based and work by hardening as the solvent evaporates. As solvent-based thread-sealing compounds present a risk of shrinking and cracking over time, they are best for sealing threads in maintenance applications where a permanent rigid bond is not essential.
Anaerobic thread sealants are high-performance sealants that only cure when oxygen is expelled. Anaerobic thread sealants such as Loxeal 58-11 are ideal for sealing permanent fixtures in commercial applications.
SUPA-SEAL P.T.F.E Thread Seal Tapes, Loxeal Thread Sealants and LA-CO T-O-T and Slic-tite® Thread Sealing Compound can be used to seal pipes containing Natural Gas or LPG (propane).
A liquid thread sealant or thread-sealing compound is recommended when sealing larger-diameter pipelines. For high-strength sealing on permanent structures, it’s important to use a high-performance thread sealant such as the Loxeal®58-11. The Loxeal®58-11 is not only AGA-approved for use with gas, it is also WaterMark-approved for use with potable water.

Manual changeover and automatic changeover dual-stage gas regulators are used for multi-LPG cylinder setups.
Once one LPG cylinder runs out, an automatic changeover regulator will automatically switch from using one gas cylinder to another. For manual changeover regulators, the user will need to manually reset the valve after the first gas cylinder runs out.
Manual changeover gas regulators mean that you are less likely to unknowingly end up with two empty gas cylinders. However, they mean that you will have to pause gas usage and switch cylinders manually.
Using an automatic changeover gas regulator means that you don’t have to pause gas usage. However, you will need to routinely inspect your set-up to ensure that gas bottles are not empty.
To suit your preferences and needs, Bromic supplies both automatic and manual changeover gas regulators.
