The Western Enterprises WES802 Cylinder Adaptor is an essential component for professionals working with liquid propane. In the complex world of compressed gas fittings, encountering mismatched threads between your cylinder and your regulator can bring operations to a halt. This adaptor is specifically engineered to solve that problem by converting a CGA-555 cylinder valve outlet to accept a CGA-510 regulator connection. Whether you are setting up a temporary station or testing equipment, this fitting ensures you can make the necessary connections safely and efficiently.
Safety is paramount when handling fuel gases like propane. The WES802 is manufactured from high-quality solid brass, a material chosen for its excellent resistance to corrosion and sparking. The precision machining of the threads ensures a tight, leak-proof seal, minimizing the risk of gas leaks that could lead to hazardous situations. The adaptor features left-hand threads, a standard safety measure for fuel gases to prevent accidental connection to incompatible oxygen or inert gas lines. This attention to detail reflects Western Enterprises' commitment to providing reliable solutions for the gas industry.
It is important to note that this adaptor is designed for liquid withdrawal applications, as indicated by the CGA-555 connection. Users should verify their specific requirements, as standard vapor propane cylinders typically use different connections. This unit acts as a bridge, allowing equipment designed with the common CGA-510 interface to utilize liquid propane cylinders equipped with CGA-555 valves. As with all cylinder adaptors, this device is intended for temporary use to facilitate connections and should not be used as a permanent installation. Always ensure that the adaptor is removed and stored properly after use to maintain its condition and threads.
Investing in the right fittings saves time and prevents damage to expensive regulators and cylinder valves. The WES802 is a robust, cost-effective solution that belongs in the toolbox of any technician working with varied propane supply systems. Its rugged design withstands the wear and tear of daily industrial use, providing peace of mind that your connections are secure.
