Place the balloon over the inflating outlet. Slightly roll the neck of
the balloon over the inflating tip. This will insure the gas enters the
center of the balloon and the round shape of the balloon is
maintained during the inflation process. Tap the foot pedal or
press the inflation button. It is important to inflate a test balloon
at each adjustment until the desired size is produced.
Conwin’s Duplicator 2 Inflators feature a raised button on the
cycle switch to enable one-hand inflation. Workers can hold the
balloon over the filling outlet and activate the inflation cycle by
pressing the button with the base of their hand.
Set the Inflation Time
Reference the chart (see right) to determine the appropriate
number of seconds required for the inflation cycle. The digital
display will indicate number of seconds.
Set the Adjustable Regulator
Reference the size setting chart (Fig.1) to set the Duplicator 2 to
the appropriate pressure. The PSI setting on the chart
corresponds to the inlet pressure on the adjustable regulator. To
adjust the pressure, pull the black setting knob up to unlock and
turn it clockwise to increase the pressure and the size of the
balloon. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease the
pressure and reduce the size of the balloon. When the unit is
set to the desired size, press the black knob down to lock it in
place.

The following settings should be used as guidelines for the Duplicator 2. Please note
that size settings will vary based on user preference, balloon color and manufacturer.
To adjust the size of balloon to your individual preference, it is necessary to inflate test
balloons.
PSI SETTINGS
refer to the gauge located on the adjustable regulator connected to the
back of the Duplicator 2. The pressure setting controls the speed of inflation.
SECONDS SETTINGS
refers to the tenth of a second increment readouts on the
digital display on the face plate of the Duplicator 2.
Important:
To insure consistent balloon sizing when using helium or nitrogen,
check the size of the balloons every 1/3 of a cylinder of gas. If necessary, increase
the size of the balloon by either increasing the time setting or the inlet pressure on
the adjustable regulator.
Settings for 60/40 Helium/Air Outlet (optional)
The following settings should be used as guidelines when using the optional 60/40
Helium/Air Outlet with the Duplicator 2. The 60/40 Helium/Air Outlet is recommended
for use with 11” or larger balloons.
