OVERVIEW

Precise Gas Control for Industrial Welding

The Techniweld FM2AQRW15100 Flowmeter Regulator is a professional-grade gas control device designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial welding environments. Engineered for accuracy and durability, this unit combines the functions of a pressure regulator and a flowmeter into a single, compact assembly. It is specifically calibrated for use with Argon and CO2 shielding gases, making it an essential component for MIG (GMAW) and TIG (GTAW) welding processes where gas coverage is critical to weld integrity.

Constructed from high-quality machined brass, the body of the regulator offers excellent resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear. The unit features a CGA 580 inlet connection, which is the industry standard for Argon, Helium, and Nitrogen cylinders. The flowmeter utilizes a vertical tube design with a floating ball indicator, providing a clear and immediate visual reading of the gas flow rate in Cubic Feet per Hour (CFH). The scale is calibrated from 0 to 60 CFH, covering the full range of flow rates typically required for light to heavy-duty fabrication.

Safety and longevity are key aspects of the FM2AQRW15100's design. The flow tube is protected by a shatter-resistant polycarbonate outer cover, safeguarding it against accidental impacts in busy workshops. Additionally, the regulator includes a high-pressure gauge that displays the remaining cylinder pressure, allowing operators to monitor gas supply and plan cylinder changeovers effectively. The sensitive needle valve provides smooth, precise adjustment, ensuring that the exact required flow rate is delivered to the weld puddle.

Whether you are outfitting a new welding station or replacing an aging regulator, the Techniweld FM2AQRW15100 offers the reliability and performance needed for consistent production. Its standard 5/8"-18 RH female outlet connection ensures compatibility with most standard welding gas hoses.

FAQ

A regulator reduces high cylinder pressure to a lower working pressure, while a flowmeter measures the actual volume of gas flowing. This unit combines both, regulating the pressure and then measuring the flow in CFH for precise control.

This unit has a CGA 580 inlet, which fits Argon, Helium, and Nitrogen cylinders. Pure CO2 cylinders typically use a CGA 320 connection. To use this with pure CO2, you would need a CGA 580 to CGA 320 adapter, though it is calibrated primarily for Argon.

The regulator is designed to handle standard high-pressure cylinders up to 3000 PSIG.

The flow tube is made of durable polycarbonate and is protected by an outer impact-resistant cover to prevent breakage during normal shop use.

The outlet is a standard 5/8"-18 RH Female connection, which fits most standard inert gas welding hoses.

Yes, the unit features a needle valve knob that allows you to adjust the flow rate from 0 to 60 CFH.

Yes, it includes a pressure gauge that indicates the amount of pressure remaining in the cylinder, helping you know when it is time to refill.

Yes, it can be used for back-purging applications provided the flow range (0-60 CFH) is sufficient for the pipe or vessel size.
