Turbo Torch 0386-0875 Nitrogen Purge Regulator Single Stage

Product Description

The TURBO TORCH 0386-0875 is a single-stage nitrogen purge regulator designed for precise gas pressure control during nitrogen purging operations. Built on the GP250-500-580 platform, it delivers a 0 to 500 psig output pressure range with consistent, reliable performance. The regulator features a patented high-strength alloy bonnet rated at nearly twice the yield strength of brass, a heavy-duty steel gauge guard, and a contoured low-profile knob for fine pressure adjustment. Licensed HVAC technicians, pipefitters, and refrigeration mechanics rely on this type of regulator when purging refrigerant lines, brazed copper systems, or gas piping prior to pressure testing.

This regulator is suited for a broad range of trade applications including HVAC line set purging, industrial and general fabrication, light fabrication, structural steel fabrication, and repair and maintenance work. It connects via a 1/4-inch flare fitting, making it compatible with standard nitrogen purge setups used in residential and commercial HVAC service. The single-stage design provides steady outlet pressure across varying inlet conditions, which is important when working with high-pressure nitrogen cylinders at different fill levels.

Key Features

• Single-stage design delivers 0 to 500 psig output pressure range
• Patented high-strength alloy bonnet offers nearly twice the yield strength of brass
• Heavy-duty steel gauge guard provides impact protection in field use
• Contoured, easy-grip knob allows precise pressure adjustment
• 1/4-inch flare fitting for connection to standard purge assemblies
• Improved low-profile body design for easier handling in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed for use with nitrogen gas cylinders using CGA 580 connections, consistent with the GP250-500-580 platform. Suitable for industrial and light fabrication, HVAC line purging, and repair and maintenance applications requiring controlled nitrogen delivery.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician, pipefitter, or gas service professional. Always close the cylinder valve and bleed the regulator before connecting or disconnecting from a nitrogen cylinder. Verify that all fittings and downstream components are rated for the outlet pressure range before pressurizing the system. Follow applicable local codes and manufacturer guidelines when purging refrigerant or gas lines.
