Patent ID: 8444041

Claim:
A brazing system comprising: a first gas source and a second gas source; a first enclosure having a first inlet, a first outlet, a first regulator valve, and a first micrometer valve, wherein the first gas source is connected to the first inlet of the first enclosure and the first regulator valve and the first micrometer valve are inside the first enclosure; a first flow meter connected to the first outlet of the first enclosure; a second enclosure having a first inlet, a first outlet, a second regulator valve, and a second micrometer valve, wherein the second gas source is connected to the first inlet of the second enclosure and the second regulator valve and the second micrometer valve are inside the second enclosure; a second flow meter connected to the first outlet of the second enclosure; and further wherein the first and second enclosures are separate; a brazing torch having an operating trigger; a control system controlling at least one of the first regulator valve, the first micrometer valve, the second regulator valve, and the second micrometer valve, said control system regulating a ratio of the first gas source and the second gas source, wherein the control system further includes a user interface whereby a target for at least one of the following may be entered by an operator and an actual value of at least one of the following may be monitored by the control system: a gas type, a pressure, a micrometer setting, a coefficient of flow, at least one flow rate, a gas ratio, and at least one type of brazing flame, and further wherein the first enclosure and the second enclosure further include pressure relief valves that exhaust to an external atmosphere.
