Device typeFixed medical gas cylinder regulator: A gas-regulating component of a medical gas (e.g., carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrous oxide, gas mixture) cylinder to reduce high, variable gas pressure to a lower, constant working pressure. It typically includes a cylinder shut-off switch (i.e., cylinder valve), regulator controls, manometer(s), a refill port, and a safety relief valve to avoid excessive pressure due to increased ambient temperatures. It is intended to be permanently fitted by a manufacturer to the stem of a valveless (i.e., open) empty medical gas cylinder prior to filling.
