Regulators & Flowmeters

Regulators

Miller® | Smith Equipment® has heavy and medium duty as well as single, two and three stage regulators, among others.

Construction features

These regulators have seven key features, which are:

1) Resin bonnet insert

Allows smooth, easy adjustment even at high-pressure levels.

2) Stainless steel diaphragm

Resists corrosion, leaking and freeze-up if used with liquid (cryogenic) gases for extended service life. Note: Series 30 has neoprene composite diaphragm.

3) Color-coded labels

Supply performance capabilities, easy gas service identification and technical information.

4) External relief valve

Protects regulator from damage due to inadvertent high-pressure surge. Relief valve will release excessive pressure and automatically reset.

5) Nickel-plated bonnet

Along with brass body protection against corrosion.

6) Shatter-resistant gauge lenses

2.5-inch corrosion-resistant polished brass gauges with shatter-resistant polycarbonate lenses. Note: Series 30 has 2-inch painted steel gauges.

7) Dual filters including Sure Seat™

Protect high-pressure seats from debris for reliable operation and long service life.

About the Flowmeter Regulators

Our flowmeter regulators are 100-percent tested and inspected, and provide unmatched gas control and accuracy.

Flowmeter regulators are available in multiple scales for use with all major shielding gases to cover most MIG or TIG welding applications.

Our premium flowmeter regulators feature an exclusive self-centering ball guide which provides accurate readings even if tipped. This ensures optimum weld quality and gas savings.

Others use a non-self-centering flow tube ball that tends to float off center causing actual gas flow to be over two times greater than indicated.

Premium Flowmeter Regulators Construction Features

These premium flowmeter regulators have five key features, which are:

1) Protective housing

Flow tubes are protected from accidental damage while offering an unobstructed view of flow reading.

2) Extra-long flow tube

Expanded scales are easy to read and accurate within five percent of full reading. Can be attached to regulators or pipeline installations.

3) Shatter-resistant multi-scale flow tube

Tubes are made of shatter-resistant polycarbonate resin and feature multiple scales.

4) Sure Seat™ filtered high-pressure seat assembly

Protects high-pressure seats from debris for reliable operation and long service life.

5) Auto-reset pressure-relief valve

Protects regulator from damage due to inadvertent high pressure surge. Relief valve will release excessive pressure and automatically reset.

Selec-O-Gas™ flowmeter regulator (option)

Four separate, easy-to-read scales for argon and argon/CO2 mix, CO2, helium and a general scale for other non-corrosive gases. Rotate outer tube to desired scale.

Economy Flowmeter Regulators Construction Features

These economy flowmeter regulators have three key features, which are:

1) Shatter-resistant triple-scale flow tube

Tubes are made of shatter-resistant polycarbonate resin and can be rotated to position desired scale for easy reading. Scaled for CO2, argon and argon/CO2 mix, and helium.

2) Built-in rupture disc

Reduces possibility of flow tube damage due to inadvertent high pressure surge. Must be replaced if ruptured — not auto-resetting.

3) Precision flow-adjustment valve

Allows easy adjustment to desired setting.
