This new design will replace the GBC 45 bar and GBCH 90 bar for CO2. They feature stainless steel as the primary base material, providing customers with enhanced performance and reliability. The new models are similar in dimensions and connections to the GBCH; therefore, they are an exact drop-in of former models for easy replacement in existing system design.

The new range is extended with solder connections up to 1 5/8 in. (42 mm) to fit more market needs. New code numbers will be created for this range.

The existing CO2 GBC 45 bar and GBCH 90 bar will be phased out. Below are more details regarding the launch plan and benefits of the new design.

Launch Plan:

The new GBC 90 bar will be released in two waves:

  • First wave covers size 6s to 16s, release planned in Jan. 2024.
  • Secondwave covers size 18s to 42s, release planned in Jul. 2024.

The old CO2 GBC 45 bar and GBCH 90 bar will be available for order until March 31st, 2024, for the first wave and until the end of August for the second wave.
