Description
26-D-RF Single Stage Argon/CO₂ Regulator with Dual Flowmeter
The 26-D-RF Single Stage Argon/CO₂ Regulator with Dual Flowmeter is designed for accurate regulation and controlled delivery of Argon or Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) shielding gas used in professional MIG and TIG welding applications.
Its single-stage pressure regulation system reduces high cylinder pressure to a suitable working pressure, while the dual flowmeter configuration provides two separate gas-flow outlets. This allows the operator to monitor and adjust gas flow independently for two connected welding lines or applications, subject to the rated capacity of the regulator.
The 26-D-RF Dual Output Gas Regulator Flowmeter is particularly useful in fabrication shops and production environments where two welding stations, torches, or gas lines may need to operate from a common compatible gas supply.

Benefits of Dual Flowmeters
The dual flowmeter design provides additional flexibility compared with a conventional single-output regulator.
It can help users:
- Supply shielding gas to two welding lines
- Independently monitor gas flow for each outlet
- Reduce the need for separate regulators in suitable installations
- Improve gas distribution in fabrication workshops
- Set different flow rates for two connected applications
- Keep gas-flow control visible during welding
- Improve convenience in multi-station welding operations
How It Works
The 26-D-RF regulator is connected to a compatible Argon or CO₂ gas cylinder.
High-pressure gas from the cylinder first enters the single-stage regulator, where it is reduced to a suitable delivery pressure. The regulated gas is then supplied to the two flowmeter tubes, which allow the operator to monitor and control the flow delivered through each outlet.
The required gas flow should be selected according to the welding process, material, torch setup, environmental conditions, and welding procedure.
How to Use
Ensure that the gas cylinder valve is completely closed before installation.
Connect the 26-D-RF Argon/CO₂ Regulator with Dual Flowmeter securely to the compatible gas cylinder using the correct cylinder connection.
Make sure both flow-control valves are closed or set to their minimum positions before opening the cylinder.
Slowly open the cylinder valve and check the regulator and connections for leakage using an approved gas leak-testing method.
Connect the required welding gas hoses to the two flowmeter outlets.
Activate gas flow through the welding equipment and individually adjust each flowmeter until the required flow rate is indicated.
After completing the work, close the gas cylinder valve and safely release the remaining pressure from the downstream system.
Important: Flowmeter scales are calibrated for particular gases and operating conditions. Always use the appropriate scale or manufacturer-specified correction when switching between Argon and CO₂.
Where It Is Used
The 26-D-RF Dual Output Argon/CO₂ Regulator Flowmeter is commonly used in:
- MIG / GMAW welding
- MAG welding with CO₂ or suitable shielding gas
- TIG / GTAW welding with Argon
- Stainless steel welding
- Aluminium TIG/MIG welding with suitable Argon shielding
- Mild steel MIG/MAG welding
- Metal fabrication workshops
- Structural fabrication

Product Application
The 26-D-RF Single Stage Dual Flowmeter Regulator is suitable for professional welders, fabrication companies, production facilities, engineering workshops, and manufacturing plants requiring controlled shielding gas delivery with two independently adjustable gas outlets.
Its combination of single-stage pressure regulation, dual flowmeters, and dual-output capability makes it a practical solution for MIG and TIG welding environments where efficient gas distribution and accurate flow monitoring are important.
