Oxygen Flow Control Regulators
Oxygen flow control regulators reduce pressure
from a cylinder to levels which can be safely used
by the user. Oxygen flow control regulators are
intended for administration of oxygen to patients
who need increased oxygen levels to improve their
breathing conditions. In addition, some models
may be used in emergency situations. In any
emergency situation, be sure to contact a physician
or EMS immediately. The regulator is to be used
by or after instruction from a trained healthcare
professional.
NOTE: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS
BEFORE ATTEMPTING SETUP AND USE
This manual instructs a professional to install and
operate the regulator. This is provided for your safety
and to prevent damage. If you do not understand this
manual, DO NOT USE regulator and contact your
provider.
RECEIVING/INSPECTION
Remove the Roscoe Regulator from packaging
and inspect for damage. If there is any damage,
DO NOT USE and contact your provider.
SET UP INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Inspect and install the cylinder using
instructions of a qualified professional.
CGA-870 CONNECTION
• Check cylinder valve to ensure it is not bent
or damaged. Be sure to purge the cylinder valve
of debris.
• Inspect the regulator for oil or grease. If these are
visible, DO NOT use the regulator.

• Ensure the sealing washer is in place on
the yoke inlet.
• Inspect washer — the washer should be free of
cracks and debris. If either exists, the washer
should be replaced immediately.
• Slip the yoke over the cylinder post and fit the pins
into the hole on the cylinder valve. The pins should
fit easily into these holes.
•Turn the T-handle clockwise until the screw point is
seated in the dimple on the cylinder valve. Ensure
the regulator is tightened snugly onto the cylinder.
• Attach the oxygen supply tubing to the barbed
outlet connection.
CGA-540 CONNECTION
•Check cylinder valve to ensure it is not bent
or damaged. Be sure to purge the cylinder valve
of debris.
• Inspect the regulator for oil or grease. If these are
visible, DO NOT use the regulator.
• Gently thread the large nut on the regulator onto
the connection on the cylinder valve.
• Tighten the nut with a wrench until secure.
• Attach the oxygen supply tubing to the barb or the
humidifier to the DISS outlet of the regulator.
REGULATOR USE
• Ensure the regulator is in the “off” position by
rotating the flow selector knob counterclockwise
to the “0” position.
• For safety, be sure you are not directly in front
of or behind the regulator when opening the
cylinder valve.
• SLOWLY turn the cylinder valve on
(counterclockwise), about one full turn.

NOTE: If you can hear a hissing sound, there is a
leak in the system. Turn the cylinder off and turn
the regulator on to relieve any built-up pressure.
Retighten the regulator to the cylinder and open the
cylinder valve again. If this does not correct the issue,
shut the system down again and contact your provid-
er. NEVER attempt to repair a regulator or cylinder
yourself. If you suspect leakage, inspect
and/or replace the yoke washer.
• Adjust the flow rate setting by turning the knob
clockwise until the prescribed setting shows
through the window. For emergency situations,
this should be at least 6 lpm.
• If the cylinder pressure falls below 300 psi,
the cylinder should be exchanged for a full one.
• To turn off the system, close the cylinder valve,
wait for oxygen to flow out of the regulator
and turn the flow selector knob counterclockwise
to “0.”
• NEVER try to remove the regulator unless the
cylinder is off and pressure has been relieved.
MAINTENANCE/CLEANING
• Disconnect all connections before cleaning.
• Clean exterior surfaces of the regulator with
a clean cloth dampened with a disinfectant
containing Sporicidin®or equivalent.
• Wipe dry with a clean cloth.
• Store the regulator in a clean area free from
grease, oil, or other sources of contamination.
• DO NOT use cleaning solutions.
• DO NOT attempt to repair the regulator.

WARNINGS
FEDERAL LAW RESTRICTS THIS DEVICE TO USE
BY OR ON ORDER OF A PHYSICIAN. ONLY USE
AS PRESCRIBED BY A PHYSICIAN.
• This item should be used only on patients who
are breathing; DO NOT use to resuscitate
non-breathing patients.
• DO NOT use with oil, grease or any other
flammable material. Keep out of reach of children.
DO NOT smoke in an area where oxygen is in use.
• DO NOT use this equipment unless you have
been trained in its proper use or are under
supervision of someone trained in its use.
• If the pressure relief valve on the underside of
the regulator begins to vent oxygen, turn off
the system and remove the unit until it can be
serviced.
• Use ONLY manufacturer approved replacement
parts.
• Handle the regulator carefully at all times and use
the regulator according to the instructions in this
manual.
• The oxygen cylinder should be in an upright
position at all times when in use.
• ALWAYS confirm prescribed flow before
administering to patient and monitor flow on
a frequent basis.
• DO NOT use near any type of flame or flammable/
explosive substances, vapors or atmosphere.
• DO NOT use tape, oils, greases, petroleum
jellies, organic lubricants, paint or any other
hydrocarbon based or combustible materials
on or near the regulator.

• Prior to handling the regulator and cylinder valve,
ensure hands are free of oil, grease and other
contaminates.
• DO NOT use regulator if oil, grease or dirt
is found on or around any surfaces. Particles
propelled in a high-velocity oxygen stream could
create a spark, causing a fire. Oil and grease can
react with oxygen and other oxidizers, causing an
explosion.
• There is NO FLOW between settings. The liter
flow number must be clearly positioned in the
window indicator.
• DO NOT use tools to tighten T-handle. This can
lead to overtightening and will cause damage to
the regulator.
• DO NOT immerse the regulator in any kind of
liquid. This will void the warranty.
• If there is any damage to the regulator, gauge
or any parts, discontinue use immediately and
call your provider.
