4.02 Cleaning Procedures
It is recommended to clean all metal parts for oxygen service, regardless of Regulator Model being repaired. There are several ways to
clean components for oxygen service. The following standards are recommended reading for more detailed information on methods and
processes:1
CGA G-4.1 “Cleaning Equipment for Oxygen Service”
ASTM G-93 “Standard Practice for Cleaning Methods and Cleanliness Levels for Material and Equipment Used in Oxygen-Enriched
Environments”
ASTM G-127 “Standard Guide for the Selection of Cleaning Agents for Oxygen Systems”
For metal parts, Victor, an ESAB brand, suggests using CCI Envirospray Liquid, used per the manufacturer’s instructions, followed by a
hot water rinse and thorough drying. Additional information can be found at http:://www.ccichemical.com.
DO NOT allow non-metal parts to come in contact with cleaning solvents. Cleaning solvents can cause non-metal parts to swell and/or
crack. To clean these parts, use a non-petroleum based mild soap solution, followed by a thorough rinsing in water. Dry parts completely
prior to reassembling.

NOTE!
Watch the Inlet Swivel while trying to turn the Body. If the Swivel is turning with the Body, then you need
to tighten the Inlet Nut tighter on the Inlet Swivel Assembly Plug.
!
CAUTION
Discard the used Gasket, Filter, Diaphragm Assembly, Seat Assembly and Friction Damper. Replace them
with new parts each time you assemble a regulator.

4.04 Assembly Procedures
Refer to
Section 3-Figure 3-2
for the reference numbers [shown in brackets].
NOTE!
When using Teflon
®
tape where noted: Apply two to three layers around the threads, leaving the first
thread clean. Ensure your Teflon
®
tape is oxygen-compatible.
When using Loctite
®
#222 Threadlocker where noted: Apply two to three drops to the second and third
thread, leaving the first thread clean.
1. Apply either Teflon
®
tape or Loctite
®
#222 to the Inlet Swivel threads.
2. If not already in place, mount the Inlet Swivel Assembly Plug back in the Bench Vise. Firmly attach the Inlet Swivel and Inlet
Nut [16] onto the Inlet Swivel Assembly Plug.
3. Screw the body onto the Inlet Swivel. Screw the Leverage Bar Tool RT-180 into the outlet port of the Body (light hand tight),
and then use the Leverage Bar to tighten the body onto the Inlet Connection. Tighten to approximately 15 ft-lbs torque. At
this point, you should not be able to turn the body by hand without the assistance of the Leverage Bar.
4. Wrap the High and Low Pressure Gauges [19, 20] with Teflon
®
tape and screw the Gauges into the Body with a minimum of 6
ft-lbs torque.
5. Apply only Loctite
®
#222 threadlocker to the Outlet Connection [18] threads. Screw the Outlet Connection into the body and
torque to 15ft-lbs.
6. At the point, thoroughly blow out the Body assembly with pressurized oil-free air or dry nitrogen to ensure it is completely
free of chips and debris
7. Assemble the Seat Assembly and Friction Damper “ears” should fold upward, around the Seat Assembly and between the
ribs, to be pushed up into the nozzle as shown:

®
#129 to the nose and threads of Adjusting Screw, then thread the Adjusting Screw
into the Bonnet until the nose makes contact with the Spring Button and begins to compress the Spring - then back out one
