0781-3661 - Victor HRF 2400 Pro Series Argon/CO2 Flowmeter Regulator, 70 CFH

Precision Gas Control for Industrial Applications

The Victor HRF2480P-992 Pro Series Flowmeter Regulator represents a significant advancement in shielding gas management for professional welding environments. Engineered as part of the HRF 2400 Pro Series, this unit is specifically designed to address the rigorous demands of MIG (GMAW) and TIG (GTAW) welding processes where gas flow stability is critical to weld quality. The regulator features a calibrated flow range of 0-70 CFH (Cubic Feet per Hour), making it exceptionally suitable for high-flow applications that require robust shielding coverage, such as welding on thick materials or in drafty shop conditions.

Technically, the HRF2480P-992 distinguishes itself with a redesigned flow tube assembly. The tube housing is impact-resistant and features a high-contrast, rotatable scale with enlarged lettering. This design consideration addresses a common operational inefficiency: the difficulty of verifying settings from a working distance. By improving visibility, Victor ensures that operators can monitor process parameters without interrupting their workflow. Furthermore, the internal mechanics are optimized for superior CO2 performance, mitigating the common issues of regulator freeze-up during extended high-flow cycles, thereby ensuring consistent delivery over the life of the cylinder.

The unit is rated for a maximum inlet pressure of 3000 PSIG and comes equipped with a CGA 992 inlet connection, tailored for specific industrial gas cylinder configurations. The integration of a sensitive needle valve allows for fine-tuning of the flow rate, ensuring that the exact volume of gas required for the specific welding procedure specification (WPS) is delivered. This precision not only enhances weld integrity by preventing porosity but also contributes to operational efficiency by reducing shielding gas waste.
