regulator question

[weldingscotty803]

just bought a argon regulator off runnach (*thanks again mate)
its a lincoln electric one, the gas flow numbers are from 1-15lpm . do you think i could get away with just the reg or do you still think i will need a flowmeter?

Get a peashooter one to put on the end of the torch, you shouldn't really need an inline flowmeter if the regs calibrated...

is it a one gauge or two? if it has flow rate just use that unless you need/ want high accuracy

 

[weldingscotty803]

got two dial bottle pressure and flow rate. theres large gaps between the numbers too. very happ with it. be even happier when i get my gas bottle filled

You shouldn't say that... we'll be queuing outside your work with our bottles...

Went to a local shop who provides Air Products.... ~£92 refill of big bottle, ~£85 yearly subscription ~£15 handling fee + VAT.... over £200.... Enjoy your gas!
