OVERVIEW

Industrial Precision for Pipeline Distribution

The Victor EDGE 2.0 ESL4-15-250A Acetylene Station Regulator (SKU: 0781-5208) represents the pinnacle of gas control technology for facility-wide distribution systems. Designed specifically for "station" or "line" applications where gas is supplied via a low-pressure manifold rather than a high-pressure cylinder, this regulator ensures consistent flow control at the point of use. The ESL4 series is engineered to handle the rigors of industrial environments while providing precise pressure adjustment between 2 and 15 PSIG, the safe operating limit for acetylene gas.

At the core of the EDGE 2.0 design is the revolutionary SLAM (Shock Limitation and Absorption Mechanism) knob. This multi-stage crumple zone technology protects the regulator's vital internal components and adjusting screw from impact damage in the event of a fall or collision—a common occurrence in busy fabrication shops. The housing cap is constructed from a high-strength zinc-aluminum alloy, offering twice the yield strength of forged brass, ensuring long-term structural integrity.

The regulator features a single, high-contrast gauge that displays delivery pressure with exceptional clarity. The gauge is recessed within the body for added protection against physical damage. Internally, the flow path is optimized for laminar flow, reducing turbulence and ensuring stable arc characteristics for downstream welding or cutting equipment. The inlet connection is a standard 7/8"-14 LH (C-Size), compatible with most industrial station drops, while the outlet is a standard 9/16"-18 LH fitting for hose connection. Safety is paramount, with a sintered inlet filter that traps particulate matter from the pipeline, preventing seat contamination and creep.

This unit is not designed for direct connection to high-pressure cylinders but is the industry standard for wall-mounted or drop-station applications. It meets strict compliance standards, including CGA E-4 and UL 252, making it a trusted component for safety managers and facility engineers alike.

FAQ

No, this is a station regulator designed for pipeline drops (low pressure). It does not have the correct CGA 510 or 300 connection for a cylinder and is not rated for high cylinder pressures.

The inlet connection is a 7/8"-14 Left Hand male thread, commonly known as a "C-Size" station connection.

The maximum delivery pressure is 15 PSIG, which is the safety limit for acetylene gas.

Station regulators typically only have a delivery pressure gauge because the inlet pressure is supplied by a manifold system and is already regulated to a lower, constant pressure.

SLAM stands for Shock Limitation and Absorption Mechanism. It is designed to absorb impact energy if the regulator is struck, protecting the internal adjusting screw and bonnet from damage.

While the pressure range might be sufficient for some applications, this regulator is specifically color-coded (Red) and labeled for Acetylene. It is recommended to use the correct regulator for the specific gas to ensure seal compatibility and safety compliance.

Victor offers a 5-year warranty on their EDGE 2.0 series regulators.
