What is the difference between an Industrial regulator, and a Specialty Gas regulator?
Industrial regulators are designed for use with gas products with no purity or contamination concerns and when accuracy is not required. Specialty gas regulators, while they may look similar in appearance, are manufactured to a totally different specification. The regulator body, diaphragms and springs are cleaned for use with higher purity gases.
Many specialty gas products can have reactive properties, and the specialty gas regulator is designed to control these products without any effect to the product, damage to the regulating equipment and offer a certified leak rate to prevent leakage into the working environment.
