0781-4256 - Victor GT350-60-350 Two-Stage Hydrogen/Methane Regulator

Victor GT350-60-350 Heavy-Duty Two-Stage Regulator

The Victor 0781-4256 GT350-60-350 is a premium heavy-duty regulator designed specifically for the precise control of Hydrogen and Methane gases. As part of the renowned GT350 series, this unit features a robust two-stage design. Two-stage regulators are essential in applications requiring absolute consistency; they function by reducing the high-pressure gas from the cylinder to an intermediate pressure in the first stage, and then to the final desired working pressure in the second stage. This mechanism effectively eliminates the "decay" or rising delivery pressure curve often seen in single-stage regulators as the cylinder empties, ensuring a steady flow rate throughout the life of the tank.

Engineered for industrial environments, the GT350-60-350 is built with a high-strength forged brass body and housing cap, providing exceptional durability against physical impact and wear. The internal components are equally robust, featuring stainless steel diaphragms. These diaphragms are critical for maintaining gas purity and offering superior sensitivity to pressure adjustments, while also providing excellent resistance to fatigue and corrosion over time. The regulator is equipped with a CGA 350 inlet connection, the standard industry fitting for Hydrogen and Methane cylinders, ensuring safe and leak-free coupling.

Safety and ease of use are paramount in the design of the Victor GT350 series. The regulator includes large, easy-to-read gauges that display both cylinder pressure (up to 3000 psig max inlet) and delivery pressure (calibrated for a 0-60 psig range). The adjustment knob is designed for smooth, precise torque, allowing operators to fine-tune pressure settings with ease. Additionally, the unit incorporates an external self-reseating relief valve, which provides a critical safety layer by venting excess pressure if it exceeds the design limits, protecting downstream equipment and personnel. Whether used in laboratory settings, manufacturing processes, or heavy fabrication, the Victor GT350-60-350 delivers the reliability and precision professionals demand.
