OVERVIEW

Save Gas and Time with the GS-150 Torch Economizer

Stop wasting money on idle flames with the GS-150 Gas Saver, the ultimate tool for any welder or brazer who needs to put their torch down frequently. In a standard setup, putting a torch down means either leaving a dangerous and wasteful flame burning or shutting it off and losing your perfect flame setting. The GS-150 solves this problem with a smart, mechanical design. By acting as both a torch holder and a shutoff valve, it extinguishes the main flame automatically when you hang your torch up, keeping your workspace safer and your gas bills lower.

The real magic happens when you pick the torch back up. Because the valves reopen to your previous setting, you don't have to fiddle with knobs to find that neutral flame again. You simply touch the tip to the built-in pilot light, and you are ready to weld in a fraction of a second. This device is perfect for radiator repair shops, art studios, and production welding bays where efficiency counts. The unit is easy to mount on a workbench and connects inline between your regulators and your torch hoses.

Ruggedly built and simple to maintain, the GS-150 pays for itself quickly in gas savings alone. It supports a variety of fuel gases including acetylene and propane. Upgrade your oxy-fuel station today and experience the convenience of instant on/off flame control without the hassle of constant adjustments.

FAQ

The GS-150 features a hooked arm that acts as a lever. When you hang your torch on the hook, the weight depresses the lever, closing the internal valves and shutting off gas flow to the torch. When you lift the torch, the valves open, and you ignite the gas using the built-in pilot light.

The GS-150 is generally compatible with Oxygen and common fuel gases such as Acetylene, Propane, and Natural Gas. Always check the specific markings on the unit to ensure seal compatibility.

Yes, the small pilot light remains lit continuously to provide an instant ignition source. It consumes a negligible amount of gas compared to a full welding flame.

The GS-150 is primarily designed for welding and brazing handles which are lighter. Heavy cutting torches may not fit the hook properly or may be too heavy for the mechanism, although some smaller combination torches may work.

No, that is the main benefit. The valves on the Gas Saver cut the flow, so you can leave your torch handle valves set to your desired mixture. When you lift the torch, the flame returns to your previous setting.

The unit is typically mounted to a workbench. The gas hoses from your regulators connect to the inlet side of the Gas Saver, and the hoses to your torch connect to the outlet side.

Yes, there is a small adjustment valve on the pilot light assembly that allows you to control the size of the pilot flame.

No, the GS-150 is a shutoff device. You should still use appropriate flashback arrestors and check valves in your system for safety.
