Set-up and mode of operation
The TESCOM EUROPE pressure regulator is a single-stage, direct-acting, spring-loaded
pressure regulator without primary pressure compensation. A diaphragm made of fibre-
reinforced elastomer acts as the seal to the atmosphere.
The pressure regulator is fitted with an internal pressure relief valve. In the event
of malfunction, medical gas can flow in the area surrounding the pressure
regulator. Observe the safety information for working with medical gases.
Some versions are equipped with a locking flow outlet for adjusting the volume flow of
the gas. A hand wheel is used to position an orifice plate containing different orifices
to release the set flow. The possible gradations are specified by the appliance. Settings
between these gradations are not possible.
