Victor, an ESAB brand, has introduced the HRF2400 Pro flowmeter regulator calibrated for CO2, argon or mixed gas blends used for TIG, MIG, and gas-shielded flux cored welding.
The HRF2400 Pro offers the highest flow range available, 70 cfh (cubic feet per hour). The new design makes it easier and faster to set accurate flow rate, the company says. Large, bold, markings on the flow tube, as well as a rotatable scale, make it easier to read the flow rate from a distance. The HRF2400 offers up to 6X longer application runtime when using CO2 (that is prone to freezing) and more consistent flow delivery over the life of the cylinder. ESAB’s Precision Hi-Res Linear Flow Adjustment technology is designed to provide the smoothest and most consistent gas flow setting. Other systems adjust well at lower flows, but then become overly sensitive at higher flows, causing flow rates to jump and spike when the operator turns the knob, according to the company.
