Adjustable pressure regulators for medical oxygen reduce high cylinder pressure and, depending on the model, allow different flow settings to be selected. They are intended for professional use in practices, clinics, emergency services and medical facilities.
Cylinder connection: the regulator must match the oxygen cylinder valve.
Flow range: available settings must suit the intended application.
Outlet connection: tubing and any additional interfaces must be compatible with the accessories used.
Pressure gauge: depending on the design, it indicates remaining cylinder pressure.
Adjustable or fixed flow?
Adjustable models provide several flow settings and are therefore flexible. For applications requiring one defined flow, see fixed-flow pressure regulators.
What should be observed for safe operation?
Before installation and use, check the connection, permissible inlet pressure, flow range and the manufacturer's instructions for use. Oxygen fittings must be kept clean and free from oil and grease.
