can the supplied regulator handle straight co2, or do i need a strictly co2 regulator

the only other thing then the splatter, you are going to need to get an adapter for the bottle, i picked mine up at my suppliers for about $17-18.00 . i did see one on amazon and ebay for the same price. just look for a co2 tank-argon tank adapter. one set of threads are in and the other is out for saftey

Mine didn't, I use mine for many things. The regulator was built in if I remember right.

yup, you have to get a hose, regulator and tank. Works much better with gas, tried it with flux core wire and was very hot and messy. Hobart makes a fixed flow regulator that I have and it seems to work well, just cant tell whats left in the tank.

I would say no. I use a small paint ball tank and when I get it filled it appears the fittings on the two tanks are different. To be 100% sure I would have to see a normal CO2 tank.

Yes, you can control the air of pressure that is put out with the regulator.

Yes. It comes with everything you need to get started but I did end up buying a different regulator and larger CO2 canister. I couldn't seem to get the pressure right until I did that.

The regulator will need the "B" fitting installed. Easily done yourself. I got mine from a local welding shop.

I bought this item to connect my CO2 regulator to a small paintball gun tank to dispense beer. I'm not sure if this helps

no, it will not, there is no solenoid on the regulator. if there were, then you could hook it up to a timer and time you lights and co2 at the same time, or to get more advanced, hook it up to a PH controller. but since there is no solenoid, it will run 24x7 til your c02 tank runs dry.

Yes. The first thing I did was to cannect to a 5gal propane tank and check it out. I used a connection with a regulator and it seems to work fine even with its' own internal regulator. I don't know if it is the proper way to hook it up, but that was just to test it. My normal hookup will be straight from the propane tank in our Coach.

depends.......you will have to inspect your unit and determine the psi regulator needed. If it is 30 psi or less then yes but I would not advise it. Something of that nature you need a regulator which is the exact psi in the product specs and not something that can be dialed in.

I have no idea what flow rate and capacity of Co2 your needs require or what sort of pressure regulation, etc., is appropriate. These are standard 20 lb tanks with pretty new inspection dates. If a standard Co2 tank is what you need for a planted aquarium, these are nice big ones that are not too big to be obtrusive or too heavy to carry. I would guess they run 50 plus pounds apiece filled, so two are reasonable to carry at one time. One big tank of the same capacity is pretty difficult to move and take in to get filled. The tanks are a good size, good quality and priced well, so I bought two to rotate in my Soda machine. Hope this helps some.

You need a keg connector that fits the soda bottle, a hose to a regulator, a regulator that brings the tank pressure down from 65 bar to 3 bar an finally a CO2 tank as used by brewing beer, welding, fish tanks, growing, or any process that requires an extra bit of CO2. The regulator is 'special' in that it has to fit a CO2 tank. (Each gas has its special fitting, e.g. an oxigen tank has a pin index fitting to prevent accidental swapping of gasses)

No. They use 2 different fill type stations to fill them . Co2 tanks have a pin valve and hpa tanks use a reg with a fill nipple port.__________________

I use it for my kegorater at homw I love it. It takes the guess work out of the CO2 tank. I'M really glaad I got it.

I run this with a two-keg regulator. The 5# CO2 tank with regulator runs an output to the gas side of each keg. These lines are independent of one another, so their lines can have different pressures, if desired. The output lines from the kegs run to the taps.If you have a one-keg regulator, you need a manifold (or splitter) to divide the single gas output to two kegs. This requires the same PSI for each keg. If you are picky about carbonation levels for a given beer (a homebrewer should be picky), then you'll just get a two-keg regulator.

You do need to get the small regulators.With mine I use my regulators for the acetylene and oxygen tanks. The acetylene regulator will fit on propane tank.
