Frequently Asked Questions

What size oxygen cylinders is this regulator compatible with?
This regulator is designed for standard D and E size oxygen cylinders with a CGA870 yoke connection. It is not compatible with larger cylinders (such as M or H tanks) that use a CGA540 nut and nipple connection, or with smaller cylinders that use different fittings. Always verify your cylinder size and connection type before purchasing a regulator.

What does CGA870 mean?
CGA870 refers to the Compressed Gas Association standard connection type used on portable D and E size oxygen cylinders. It is a yoke-style connection that clamps onto the cylinder valve. This is the most common connection type for portable home and medical oxygen cylinders in the United States.

What is the flow rate range of this regulator?
This regulator delivers oxygen flow rates from 0 to 8 liters per minute (LPM) in click-style increments. The click-style selector allows the user to set a precise flow rate with audible confirmation at each setting. If your prescribed flow rate exceeds 8 LPM, you will need a higher-capacity regulator.

How do I know when my oxygen cylinder is running low?
The protected contents gauge on this regulator displays the remaining pressure in the cylinder, which corresponds to the remaining oxygen supply. Monitor the gauge regularly during use and replace or refill the cylinder before it reaches empty. Consult your oxygen supplier or respiratory therapist for guidance on when to change cylinders based on your prescribed flow rate and usage patterns.
