$6 bucks a fill you have to be losing some money. Let's examine the process here. A cylinder comes in for an enriched air fill. The cylinder must be analyzed, label removed, mixed, analyzed, and labeled, if the mix was correct -- great -- if not adjustments need to be made or remixed. (yeah even the best make a mistake now and then. Then when the client comes in analysis is done again for verification. Somewhere along the line it looks as if this whole process is about 20-30 minutes. If you batch process tanks maybe you get to fill upwards of 6-10 at a time, but very few facilities do. IF the tanks you are filling all require different mixes then its even more time. Oxygen is not expensive, in fact its the least costly of the process. The big issue is time for handling, verification and documentation. Take it slow and do it right. The wrong mix will kill someone. Would you want a pharmacist mixing the drugs for your children to be at the low end of the pay scale ? Joel D.
