- 18W Series Gas Watcher Single-Stage General Purpose Regulator - Brass
Product Description
These general purpose regulators designed for non-corrosive gas applications incorporate a Gas WatcherTM Bluetooth Pressure Gauge that displays the source gas pressure on a digital readout and also remotely via a Bluetooth connection to a web based portal. A Receiver/Router and an Annual Monitoring/Reporting Service (first year included with Receiver/Router) is required to view the source gas pressure remotely on a computer, tablet or smart phone and has the ability to have pressure status alerts sent either by text and/or email.
Applications
• Use with gases that are 99.995% or lower purity
• Regulation of air supply to valves and actuators
• Inert gas supply for purging applications
• Calibration of pressure gauges, rotameters, and mass flowmeters
• Applications with high duty cycle/demanding operating conditions
Design Features
• Forged brass body
• Neoprene diaphragm
• 2” delivery pressure gauge
• Equipped with outlet needle valve
• 1/4” NPTM outlet connection with loose 1/4" hose barb
• Porous metal filter to protect seat from contamination
• Model 18R uses Tee handle for pressure adjustment; all others use black knob shown
• Gas Watcher - Bluetooth Pressure Gauge
The Gas WatcherTM Bluetooth Pressure Gauge displays the source gas pressure on a digital readout and also remotely via a Bluetooth connection to a web based portal. The operation and control settings for the Gas WatcherTM are conveniently accessed through a set of two push buttons located on the face of the Gas WatcherTM .
A Receiver/Router and an Annual Monitoring/Reporting Service (first year included with Receiver/Router) is required to view the source gas pressure remotely on a computer, tablet or smart phone and has the ability to have pressure status alerts sent either by text and/or email.
