Nickel plated HPT600 dual Stage regulator, Custom CO2 system reef tank

Description

Planted aquarium Custom CO2 system, Industrial grade 2 Stages regulator & parts.
-This Nickel plated custom co2 system, all parts were individually chosen, then built and tested by bettatail (member of TPT).
-It will be part of the exhibition of your planted tank while the industrial grade components ensure many years of pleasant and trouble free service.
-I've been researching and building aquarium custom double stage co2 systems since 2011, now the parts you see in my custom made co2 systems are among the best industrial grade components that I could offer.
-The systems are built with industrial diaphragm valves double stage regulators, not normal aquarium co2 regulators
that are
Pin/spring valves design. Double stage ensure no
Out Put Pressure Rise
which cause EOTD and lost of fauna in the tank. Diaphragm valves guarantee less issue with the valve leaking and always ensure on/close and hold steady the desired output pressure at each valve stage.
-Solenoid is part of the system that enable a timer/automation control of the co2 injection. Reliable solenoids with extremely low power consumption, s
mall orifice and
high on/off life cycles,
are good candidates because the co2 flow rate is extremely low in our application, but these solenoids are not available in commercially ready co2 systems due to high cost, we have to find and put them on the co2 systems ourselves.
-High precision metering valve, this is the part that control and hold steady the desired co2 flow rate. Higher the precision, easier the adjustment capability and less flow rate drift issue. Some of the industrial grade metering valve involved in these DIY type high end co2 systems, are with original price tags same as the co2 systems that built with the valves.
Three major components of this co2 system:
1.
Victor HPT600
nickel plated double stage pressure regulator. Input pressure max 3600 psi, output pressure 0-22 psi, this is an industrial grade double stage diaphragm pressure regulator.
2.
Clippard minature mouse solenoid
is a reliable low flow, low power consumption solenoid. only 0.67 watts low power consumption with 12V or 24V DC power input, 1 billion On/off life cycle manufacture rating, MOPD 0-105 psi. Provided power adapter is 24V DC.
3.
Swagelok M series
stainless steel medium flow metering valve, precision flow control with vernier handle. Its flow control capacity can be as low as 1 sccm, normal co2 flowrate for 55G planted tank is 10-14 sccm(5lb co2 tank, 6-8 month, 8 hours/day).
With fluval inline bubble counter, not in picture.
This system has low maximum pressure output, best to work with reef tank CARX or CO2 reactor for planted tank.
How to use this system
:
Normal operating procedure for a pressure regulator, but a couple things worth mentioned to avoid mistakes, especially if it is first time to use a pressurized co2 cylinder:
1. make sure the washer in place when connect to a co2 cylinder/tank, hand tight then wrench tight the cga320 nut.
2. the pressure adjust handle is at close position(all the way
counter
clockwise) while charging the system with pressurized co2.
3. open the co2 cylinder valve slowly.
How to care for this system
No special care.
In the package
:
Victor HPT600 dual stage co2 system with bubble counter
AC/DC power adapter
co2 hose, co2 cylinder/tank and diffuser
are not included
.
recommend industrial grade polyurethane hose for co2, do not use silicon air hose(high co2 leak rate under pressure).
