Its not the big arc I'm worried about. Its the little arc that happen where you don't expect them to happen.

Mmm. New territory there... the big arc happens in a sealed glass tube but it’s thousands of bolts and as you say, the EMF is big all around the caps and the head... in a room full of Hydrogen and Oxygen... if you survive, let us know how it went .On Mon, Dec 3, 2018 at 8:01 AM Randy Little <randyslittle@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Wondering the potintial of 2 things in a lab shoot.
1) the electronic discharge of 2400 WS power pack on the highly calibrated equipment, like Gas Chromatograph and such.
2) there is potential for a small amount of Hydrogen in the air. Lab exhaust fans will be running and power packs are in good shape but they still cause enough of an electromagnetic disturbance that they will kick on fans in an arc welding workshop and clearly have several points of potential arcing. These are Swiss Elinchrom packs so they are pretty well made and cared for. Still a bit concerned about blowing up the Specialty Gasses lab.
