The correct use of the regulator

In the process of using the pressure reducer, it is necessary to follow the correct rules to be able to use it more safely and prevent dangerous things from happening. Here are the rules for proper use of the transformer.

The oxygen cylinder must be slow to operate when it is deflated or when the regulator is opened. If the valve opening speed is too fast, the temperature of the working part of the pressure reducer will be greatly increased due to adiabatic compression, which may cause parts made of organic materials such as rubber packing and rubber film fiber lining to burn and burn. Pressure reducer completely burned. In addition, due to the static spark generated by rapid air discharge and the oil in the pressure reducer, it also causes ignition and burn-out of the pressure reducer parts.

Precautions for loading and unloading of the pressure reducer: When working with the pressure reducer, care must be taken to prevent the threaded joints from slipping, so as to prevent the screw from slipping out. During the working process, the pressure value of the working pressure gauge must be observed. When stopping the work, first loosen the pressure regulator screw of the pressure reducer, then close the oxygen cylinder valve, and slowly exhaust the gas in the pressure reducer. In this way, the spring and the pressure reduction valve can be protected from damage. After the work is completed, the pressure reducer should be removed from the cylinder and stored properly.

Precautions for the regulator before and when opening the cylinder valve: Before installing the regulator, slightly beat the bottle valve to blow off dirt to prevent dust and moisture from entering the regulator. When the cylinder valve is opened, the gas outlet of the bottle valve must not be aimed at the operator or others to prevent the high-pressure gas from bursting and hurting people. If the regulator is frozen during use, thawed with hot water or steam, it must not be baked with flame or red iron. After the pressure reducer is heated, the residual moisture must be blown off. The pressure reducer must be kept clean. The exhaust port of the pressure reducer and the gas rubber pipe joint must be tightened with the wire or clamp that has been degassed;

The pressure reducer must be regularly repaired and the pressure gauge must be checked regularly. This is done to ensure the reliability of the pressure regulator and the accuracy of the pressure gauge readings. In use, if there is a leak in the pressure reducer and the pressure gauge is not working properly, it should be repaired in time. The regulator is frozen. The pressure reducer must not be contaminated with grease or dirt. If grease is present, it must be wiped clean before use. Pressure reducers and pressure gauges for various gases may not be used interchangeably. For example, oxygen pressure reducers cannot be used in systems such as acetylene and petroleum gas.

Use the above rules when using the transformer. Special precautions must be taken to prevent ejection during installation and unloading.
