I was browsing a Victor catalog for information on their turbo-torches and noticed that their smallest tip sizes seem to demand no less than 2 CFH of acetylene - even the kits sold for use with 10 CF 'MC' cylinders. Some of them to up to 8.3 CFH with CGA-200 connections. They even sell a 7 CFH torch tip in a kit with an 'MC' cylinder tote.
Is there more to acetylene withdraw rates than the general 1/7 rule? How is it that these torches operate safely? Are they designed to burn acetylene and acetone together?
These are UL-listed products, mind you.
