OVERVIEW

Precision Oxygen Control with Durability

The Chrome Plated 540 Oxygen Flowmeter is engineered for professionals who require accurate gas delivery and robust construction. Designed with a standard CGA 540 inlet, this unit connects directly to standard high-pressure oxygen cylinders, regulating the pressure down to a safe working level while providing precise flow metering. The unit features a flow range of 0 to 15 Liters Per Minute (LPM), making it highly versatile for a variety of applications ranging from laboratory research and calibration setups to emergency kits and light industrial purging tasks.

Constructed from high-quality brass and finished with a heavy-duty chrome plating, this flowmeter is built to withstand the rigors of daily use while maintaining a clean, professional appearance. The chrome finish not only enhances durability but also provides excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, which is critical in oxygen-enriched environments. The body houses a precision-machined flow control valve, operated by an ergonomic knurled knob that allows for smooth, fingertip adjustments of the flow rate. This ensures that users can dial in the exact amount of oxygen needed without struggle or hysteresis.

The flow tube itself is designed for maximum readability. It features a clear, impact-resistant cover with high-contrast markings that allow the operator to verify flow settings at a glance. The internal float is calibrated to ensure accuracy across the entire 0-15 LPM range. Safety is paramount in high-pressure gas equipment; therefore, this unit includes an integrated pressure relief mechanism to protect downstream equipment and personnel in the event of a pressure spike. The outlet is equipped with a standard oxygen barb fitting, often referred to as a "Christmas tree" adapter, which facilitates the quick and secure attachment of standard oxygen tubing.

Whether you are outfitting a mobile response kit, setting up a controlled atmosphere in a lab, or require a reliable backup regulator for specific oxygen applications, this Chrome Plated 540 Oxygen Flowmeter delivers the performance and reliability expected in professional-grade gas equipment.

FAQ

This flowmeter is equipped with a CGA 540 nut and nipple, which fits standard industrial and medical oxygen cylinders used in the United States and Canada.

The unit is calibrated to deliver oxygen flow between 0 and 15 Liters Per Minute (LPM).

Yes, the standard oxygen barb (Christmas tree adapter) is typically threaded onto a DISS outlet and can be removed if a different connection is required, though the barb is standard for this configuration.

Generally, no. Oxy-acetylene torches typically require pressure-based regulators (PSI) rather than flowmeters (LPM), and the flow rate of 15 LPM may not be sufficient for cutting or heavy welding.

The body is constructed from durable brass and features a chrome plating for enhanced corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning.

Yes, it acts as both a regulator and a flowmeter. It reduces the high tank pressure (up to 2000+ PSI) to a safe working pressure and then meters the flow via the adjustable valve.

While it features a medical-style design and flow rate, users should verify local regulations and certifications required for patient use. It is sold here as an industrial/MRO product.

The flow is read by aligning the center of the ball float inside the clear tube with the corresponding line on the scale.
