RMS MEDICAL OXYGEN GAS REGULATOR ME870UF-25B 220615010 4000PSI

The RMS ME870UF-25B is a high-pressure, single-stage gas regulator designed specifically for the controlled and reliable administration of medical oxygen. Engineered to connect directly to high-pressure oxygen cylinders (up to 4000 PSI), it is an essential device for converting tank pressure to a safe, usable flow rate for patient therapy in clinical, emergency, and home-care settings.

Key Features & Technical Specifications:

• Model: ME870UF-25B
• Part/Serial Identifier: 220615010 (Often indicates lot/batch, manufacturing date, or unique product code)
• Intended Gas: Medical Oxygen ONLY. Constructed with oxygen-compatible materials (e.g., brass) to ensure safety and prevent combustion.
• Maximum Inlet Pressure (PSIG): 4000 PSI. Compatible with standard full-sized and smaller medical “E” or “D” cylinders filled to high pressure.
• Outlet Pressure: Typically delivers a stable, reduced outlet pressure suitable for connecting to flowmeters or oxygen conserving devices (common range is 40-70 PSIG, but exact specs should be verified with the manufacturer).
• Connection Types:
  • Inlet (CGA Connection): CGA 870 – The standard pin-index safety fitting for medical oxygen cylinders in the United States. This specific pin configuration prevents connection to the wrong type of medical gas cylinder.
  • Outlet: Usually a DISSS (Diameter Index Safety System) 5/8″-18 UNF threaded outlet (or another standardized DISSS fitting). This safety system ensures it can only connect to compatible medical oxygen tubing or devices.
• Gauges:
  • High-Pressure Gauge: Measures the cylinder pressure (0-4000 PSI), indicating how much oxygen remains in the tank.
  • Low-Pressure Gauge: Indicates the regulated output pressure being delivered to the patient circuit.
• Built-In Safety Features: Includes a pressure-relief device (burst disk) to safely vent excess pressure if the regulator malfunctions, protecting both the equipment and the user.

Primary Applications:

• Hospital & Clinic Use: Wall-mounted or cylinder-based backup oxygen systems.
• Emergency Medical Services (EMS): Standard equipment on ambulances for portable oxygen supply.
• Home Oxygen Therapy: Used as the primary regulator on large stationary oxygen cylinders (e.g., “H” or “M” tanks) for long-duration patient use.
• Nursing Homes & Long-Term Care Facilities.
• Industrial/Medical Intersection: For safety oxygen stations in environments where medical support is needed.

Why Choose the RMS ME870UF-25B?

• Safety First: Oxygen-specific CGA 870 and DISSS connections eliminate gas misconnection risks.
• Robust & Reliable: Built to withstand the demands of professional medical use with consistent performance.
• Clear Monitoring: Dual gauges provide immediate visual feedback on cylinder contents and delivery pressure.
• Industry Standard: A trusted and widely recognized model in medical gas equipment.
