Regulator (Single or Double Gauge)
The regulator controls, or ‘Regulates’ the air flow coming from the CO2 cylinder. It
consists of a brass fitting that attaches it via hex nut to the cylinder. This nut must be firmly
seated, and tightened with a wrench. There is a rubber washer built in to the connection to
prevent leaks. There are 2 types of regulator, single and double gauge. The regulator also has a
secondary shut off valve, which can shut off air flow going to the keg, while still allowing air
from the cylinder to the regulator.
Gauges indicate air pressure in p.s.i. (lbs. per square inch)
Single gauge regulator shows pressure leaving the regulator
Double gauge shows air pressure leaving regulator, and air pressure in the CO2
cylinder
Secondary cut off valve stops air flow from regulator to the keg
Secondary cut off valve must be all the way open for proper operation
Flathead screw sticking out the front used to adjust pressure to the keg
