Gentec 196AR-60 196 Series Dual Flowmeter Regulator, Argon, Ar/CO2 Mix, GCA580

Overview

This precision-engineered regulator, the Gentec 196AR-60, is a 196 Series Dual Flowmeter Regulator designed to optimize MIG and TIG welding operations by providing accurate control and monitoring of two separate gas flows simultaneously. This regulator is also ideal for commercial, industrial, and laboratory use, replacing standard single-flow regulators with its enhanced dual-flow capability. Constructed from class "A" brass, this regulator ensures durability and consistent performance. The inclusion of two independent flowmeters allows for precise adjustments of Argon and Ar/CO2 mixes, enhancing workflow efficiency and reliability. This regulator is an essential tool for professionals who require precise gas flow management in welding and other applications.

This regulator solves the common problem of needing to control and monitor two separate gas flows simultaneously, which is crucial in welding applications and other processes requiring precise gas mixtures. It replaces the need for two separate regulators, streamlining operations and reducing equipment complexity.

Customers benefit from the Gentec 196AR-60's ability to provide accurate and reliable gas flow control, improving the consistency and quality of welding and other gas-dependent processes. The impact-resistant polycarbonate flow tube and hood protect the flowmeters from damage, ensuring long-term reliability. The backpressure compensated flowmeter maintains accuracy even under varying pressure conditions, while the preset 50 PSIG output ensures stable and consistent operation. This regulator allows for precise control of Argon and Ar/CO2 mixes, optimizing welding performance.

The dual flowmeter design enhances operational efficiency by allowing simultaneous monitoring and adjustment of two separate gas flows. The robust construction and conformance to CGA E-4 standards ensure that this regulator meets stringent safety and performance requirements. The easy-to-read flowmeters simplify monitoring and adjustment, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.
