High-Flow Precision for Emergency Airway Management The R&B Fabrications Oxygen Regulator is built for the demanding conditions of tactical medicine and EMS. Unlike standard aluminum regulators, this unit features a solid brass body and core, offering superior durability and safety against fire hazards. With an extended flow range of 0 to 25 Liters Per Minute (LPM), it supports everything from low-flow nasal cannulas to high-flow demand valves and ventilators.

Key Features

  • All-Brass Construction: The heavy-duty brass body minimizes the risk of ignition and withstands the physical abuse of field operations.
  • Extended Flow Range (0-25 LPM): Provides variable flow settings (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25) to cover all treatment protocols.
  • Dual Power Take-Offs: Equipped with two DISS check valves, allowing you to run a demand valve or ventilator simultaneously while using the flow control barb.
  • CGA 870 Connection: Features a standard pin-index yoke designed to fit securely onto "C", "D", and "E" size medical oxygen cylinders.

Why It Matters In a mass casualty or critical trauma scenario, you often need more than 15 LPM. This regulator's 25 LPM capability allows for effective flush rates and management of larger patients. The all-brass design is the gold standard for safety, reducing the risk of regulator burnout in oxygen-enriched environments.

How to Use

  1. Inspect: Ensure the sealing washer (bodok seal) is in place on the yoke.
  2. Attach: Slide the yoke over the cylinder post, aligning the pins with the holes.
  3. Tighten: Hand-tighten the T-handle until secure.
  4. Open: Slowly crack the tank valve using an oxygen wrench.
  5. Adjust: Rotate the click-style knob to your desired liter flow (e.g., 15 or 25 LPM).

Technical Overview This regulator uses a direct-diaphragm design for consistent pressure output (50 PSI) regardless of tank volume. The brass internal components provide a heatsink effect, making it one of the safest regulators available for high-pressure oxygen service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose the R&B RB-14 brass oxygen regulator over aluminum models?

The R&B RB-14 is constructed from high-quality brass rather than aluminum, providing superior durability and resistance to wear in demanding EMS and fire department environments. Brass construction ensures consistent performance under repeated use and exposure to varying temperatures, making it ideal for first responders who need reliable oxygen flow control in critical situations. The brass material also resists corrosion better than aluminum alternatives, extending the regulator's service life in emergency medical kits and ambulances.

What oxygen delivery scenarios benefit most from the 0-15L adjustable flow range on the RB-14?

The R&B Oxygen Regulator's 0-15L selectable flow control allows precise oxygen titration for diverse emergency medical situations. Lower flow rates (1-6L) are ideal for conscious patients requiring supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula, while mid-range flows (6-10L) support non-rebreather mask delivery for moderate respiratory distress. The upper range (10-15L) enables high-flow oxygen administration during CPR, severe trauma, or critical respiratory emergencies, giving EMS providers and first responders the flexibility to match oxygen delivery to patient acuity without switching equipment.

Can the R&B RB-14 oxygen regulator be mounted in emergency vehicle oxygen systems?

Yes, the R&B RB-14 oxygen regulator is designed for integration into ambulance, fire apparatus, and emergency vehicle oxygen delivery systems. Its single barb fitting provides secure hose attachment that withstands vehicle movement and vibration during transport. The integrated pressure gauge allows responders to monitor oxygen cylinder levels at a glance, ensuring adequate supply during extended calls. The compact brass construction makes it suitable for both portable oxygen kits and fixed vehicle-mounted installations used by EMS providers and fire departments.

How does the pressure gauge on the RB-14 help prevent oxygen depletion during multi-patient incidents?

The built-in pressure gauge on the R&B Oxygen Regulator provides real-time oxygen level monitoring, which is critical during mass casualty incidents or extended emergency responses where multiple patients require oxygen therapy. First responders can quickly assess remaining oxygen supply without disconnecting equipment, allowing them to plan cylinder changes proactively and avoid treatment interruptions. This feature is especially valuable for fire departments and EMS agencies managing prolonged extrications or multi-patient medical emergencies where oxygen conservation is essential.

Is the R&B RB-14 oxygen regulator compatible with standard D and E oxygen cylinders used in EMS?

The R&B RB-14 oxygen regulator features standard CGA-870 pin-index connections compatible with medical oxygen cylinders commonly used in emergency medical services, including D, E, and M-size cylinders. This universal compatibility ensures the regulator integrates seamlessly with existing EMS oxygen systems, trauma bags, and first responder kits. The American-made construction (MPN: RB-14) meets medical-grade standards for oxygen delivery equipment used by fire departments, ambulance services, and emergency medical professionals.
