Hi All,
hope somebody on here can suggest a cure. My CO2 regulator is freezing up causing the gas to splutter and spit untill it eventually stops. I am using part used CO2 fire extinguishers and a single stage regulator with a dial type flow guage fitted. I am setting the flow at about 2l/min to get a reasonable weld time but recently the freezing is happening quicker. If I set the reg to 10l/min it is freezing in a few seconds. I am working in a heated workshop (16 degrees) welding 1 - 3mm plate using a Draper 1302 turbo mig welder.
Thanks in advance
Chris
