3000244 - Harris Model 3000 High-Pressure Argon Flow Regulator CGA 680

Precision High-Pressure Gas Control

The Harris Model 3000 Flow Regulator (SKU: 3000244) is a specialized industrial gas control device designed for applications requiring the regulation of Argon and Argon-mix gases from high-pressure cylinders. Unlike standard regulators that utilize CGA 580 connections, this unit is equipped with a CGA 680 inlet, making it compatible with high-pressure inert gas cylinders ranging from 3,001 to 5,500 PSIG. This distinction is critical for facilities utilizing high-capacity gas delivery systems where standard regulators would be incompatible or unsafe.

Engineered for Reliability

At the core of this regulator is Harris's renowned one-piece encapsulated seat design. This engineering feat integrates the seat with an internal filter, protecting the critical sealing surface from particulate contamination—the leading cause of regulator failure. The seat itself is crafted from PTFE Teflon, a material selected for its exceptional chemical resistance and durability. This ensures a positive seal and smooth pressure adjustment over thousands of cycles, reducing maintenance downtime and replacement costs for industrial operations.

Performance Specifications

This model is calibrated to deliver a maximum flow rate of 60 cubic feet per hour (SCFH), providing ample coverage for a wide range of TIG and MIG welding applications as well as laboratory purging tasks. The brass body construction offers excellent thermal properties and resistance to corrosion, ensuring the unit withstands the rigors of daily industrial use. Whether used in aerospace manufacturing, petrochemical facilities, or heavy fabrication shops, the Harris 3000244 delivers the consistent performance required for critical gas management.
