Abstract

An arrangement in connection with a gas mixer, which is arranged to form a mixed gas of oxygen and another gas to be mixed with it. To provide a simple and reliable arrangement, before the mixed gas is formed the oxygen is arranged to be supplied through both a mechanical adjusting means, and a mechanical and electronic flow-measuring means. The other gas to be mixed with oxygen is arranged to flow through an electronic flow-measuring device. The flow of the other gas is arranged to be regulated by means of an electronically controlled regulating valve, whereupon the electronic flow-measuring means, the electronic flow-measuring device, and the electronically controlled regulating valve are arranged to be operated by means of a control unit.
