Hi:
I have just started doing MIG welding and got my cylinder (40 cu ft) filled with argon 75/ co2 25 mix. I connected it to my two gauge regulator a day later and the pressure in the cylinder read 1700psi. After about 15 minutes of welding it reads 1200psi. I set the flow rate at 20cu ft/min. What should the pressure read on a newly filled cylinder and how can one tell whether the cylinder has been completely filled or not? Thanks.
