OVERVIEW

High-Performance Brass Cylinder Adaptor for Acetylene Systems

The Western Enterprises 320 Cylinder Adaptor is a precision-engineered component designed to facilitate the interconnection of compressed gas equipment with differing CGA standards. Specifically manufactured for Acetylene service, this adaptor enables the connection of a regulator equipped with a CGA-200 nut (typically found on equipment for 'MC' style tanks) to a cylinder featuring a standard CGA-510 valve (POL). The unit features a CGA-510 Male connection on the cylinder side and a CGA-200 Male connection on the regulator side, effectively bridging the compatibility gap between these two common industrial standards.

Constructed from high-quality free-machining brass, the Model 320 offers superior durability and resistance to corrosion, essential qualities for hardware used in industrial and laboratory environments. The material choice also ensures non-sparking characteristics, a critical safety requirement when handling flammable gases like acetylene. The adaptor is rated for a maximum working pressure of 500 PSIG, providing a substantial safety margin for standard acetylene applications. Its robust design includes a 1-1/8" hex body, allowing technicians to apply the appropriate torque using standard wrenches to achieve a secure, leak-tight seal.

This product is manufactured in the United States, adhering to strict quality control standards to ensure thread accuracy and structural integrity. It is important to note that while this adaptor provides essential flexibility in equipment configuration, cylinder adaptors are intended for temporary use to accommodate specific operational needs and should not be used as permanent fixtures in a gas distribution system. Users must always verify that the gas service is compatible with the adaptor's specifications to prevent hazardous cross-connections. The WES320 is a reliable solution for professionals requiring versatile gas management options.
