The Gentec 591N-1500-680 High Pressure Regulator is a premium gas control device engineered for the rigorous demands of industrial maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO). Unlike standard welding regulators that utilize a rubber diaphragm, the 591N series employs a robust piston actuation mechanism. This design choice is critical for applications requiring high delivery pressures, as pistons are significantly more durable and resistant to the wear and tear caused by pressure spikes and high-flow surges. Designed for use with inert gases such as Argon, Helium, and Nitrogen, this regulator features a CGA-680 inlet connection, which is the standard for high-pressure cylinders ranging from 3001 to 5500 PSIG.
Reliability is paramount in petrochemical, aerospace, and heavy manufacturing sectors. The Gentec 591N addresses this with a body and housing cap machined from solid Class 'A' brass bar stock. This construction method eliminates the porosity issues sometimes found in forged or cast bodies, ensuring a leak-tight seal and exceptional structural integrity. The internal components are equally well-engineered; a sintered bronze inlet filter prevents particulate contamination—a common cause of regulator failure—while a Delrin cap bushing ensures that pressure adjustments remain smooth and precise over the lifespan of the unit.
This specific model is calibrated for a delivery pressure range of up to 1500 PSI, making it an indispensable tool for specialized tasks such as charging hydraulic accumulators, pressurizing aircraft struts, or conducting high-pressure leak tests on pipeline systems. The large, 2-1/2 inch steel gauges provide clear, dual-scale readings, allowing operators to monitor cylinder and delivery pressure with accuracy. For facility managers and procurement specialists seeking a regulator that combines high-pressure capability with long-term reliability, the Gentec 591N-1500-680 is the definitive choice.
