FAILURE OR IMPROPER SELECTION OR IMPROPER USE OF THIS PRODUCT CAN CAUSE DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE.
This document and other information from the Veriflo Division of Parker Hannifin Corporation, its subsidiaries and authorized distributors provides product and/or
system options for further investigation by users having technical expertise. It is important that you analyze all aspects of your application, including
consequences of any failure and review the information concerning the product or system in the current product catalog. Due to the variety of operating conditions
and applications for these products and systems, the user, through its own analysis and testing, is solely responsible for making the final selection of the products
and systems and assuring that all performance, safety and warning requirements of the application are met.
OXYGEN SERVICE
The user is solely responsible for selecting the regulator and specifying materials to be used in oxygen service.
Extreme caution must be taken when using oxygen. A serious risk of ignition, fire, and explosion exists.
Do not use a regulator or operate a system if there is evidence of contamination (e.g. debris, particles, oils, lubricants, grease, etc.);
Do not interchange regulators, components, or accessories with those that have been used in other types of gas service;
Do not operate the regulator without a proper filter;
Always apply pressure to the regulator slowly to avoid heating from adiabatic compression. Fast opening valves should not be used.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Users must be trained and equipped for the handling, use and servicing of high-pressure gas or fluids and systems.
Users must contact their gas or liquid supplier for specific safety precautions and instructions.
Always wear appropriate protective clothing including approved safety glasses, gloves, aprons, etc.
Follow all applicable safety and maintenance procedures.
Obey local, government and agency codes and regulations.
Do not exceed the maximum inlet pressure of the product.
Do not exceed the maximum outlet pressure of the product.
Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of pressure gauges, connections or other accessories provided with the product. Note that the maximum
operating pressure of an accessory may be less than or greater than the maximum inlet pressure marked on the product.
Questions regarding the installation, operation, performance, or servicing of a Veriflo regulator should be directed to (510) 235-9590 in the U.S.
INSTALLATION
Veriflo offers a variety of pressure regulators with various inlet connections, outlet connections, and pressure
gauges and other options. Before installing the regulator you should fully understand the options of your particular
regulator and its suitability for the application.
Step 1
Verify that the regulator has the proper connections for the type of gas or fluid and pressures required for
your application.
Step 2
Verify that the high pressure gauge is suitable for the pressure of the system or cylinder.
Step 3
Inspect the regulator and your system connections for evidence of contamination or damage. Regulators
that are damaged or contaminated should not be used.
Step 4
The gas or fluid supplied to the regulator must be clean. Contamination can damage the regulator’s seat
and cause the regulator to malfunction. An upstream filter is recommended. Additionally, the gas supply
should be dry. Condensation caused by expansion of the gas through the regulator and high flows may
cause the regulator to function improperly.
Sept 5 If system dry down time is important, it is recommended that the regulator remain bagged until just prior
to installation. Should bake out be desired or necessary,
do not exceed 180° F (82° C)
or seal damage
could result.
