Inovo Brass Core Oxygen Regulator
Inovo Brass-Core High-Flow Oxygen Regulator (0.5ā25 LPM)
0.5 to 25.0 LPM (12 Detented Settings)
Solid Brass Core / Anodized Aluminum Shell
CGA 870 Post-Valve Yoke Connection
Over-The-Counter (OTC ā No Rx Required)
Executive Product Overview
The Inovo Brass-Core Oxygen Regulator (Model IN3625-R) is a commercial-grade click-style pressure control valve engineered to step down high-pressure medical gas cylinders to controlled therapeutic flow levels. Designed for demanding clinical environments, ambulatory transport, and emergency medical services (EMS), the IN3625-R features a solid brass internal core wrapped within an anodized green aluminum outer shell.
This hybrid construction ensures that all high-pressure gas conduits remain solid brass, mitigating the risk of frictional ignition in high-pressure oxygen environments while keeping overall hardware weight manageable. Rated for cylinder inlet pressures up to 3,000 PSI, the regulator delivers an expanded flow spectrum ranging from 0.5 to 25.0 LPM. Outfitted with an ergonomic five-lobed T-handle for tool-free attachment to CGA 870 post-valve cylinders, it features a ribbed metal hose barb outlet for direct tubing connections.
Key Performance & Operational Features
- Elite Fire-Safe Brass Core Architecture: High-pressure internal conduits are constructed from solid brass to protect against frictional ignition and particle-impact fires.
- Expanded Flow Spectrum (0.5ā25.0 LPM): Positive click-stop selector locks securely into 12 settings (0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25 LPM) for EMS resuscitation and high-flow therapy.
- Smart-Grip Five-Lobed T-Handle: Oversized, textured adjustment knob allows tight, leak-free installation onto cylinder posts without requiring an external wrench.
- Internal Sintered Bronze Inlet Filter: Micron-level filter screen traps particulate debris and scale before gas reaches internal valve mechanics.
- Integrated Safety Relief Valve: Internal pressure relief mechanism automatically vents excess pressure if downstream lines become obstructed.

Facility Procurement & Risk Mitigation Insight
Standardizing emergency response and high-flow therapy fleets on the Inovo IN3625-R provides dual-layer protection: the solid brass core prevents high-pressure ignition hazard risks, while the expanded 25 LPM output range allows clinical staff to drive non-rebreather masks during acute respiratory events using standard CGA 870 portable cylinders.
Product & Compliance FAQs
Q: Why is a "Brass Core" design safer than a standard all-aluminum regulator?
A: High-pressure compressed oxygen (2,000+ PSI) can cause particle-impact friction. Pure aluminum can ignite under extreme friction, creating a regulator fire. Brass does not support combustion in high-pressure oxygen gas paths, keeping the internal conduit safe while utilizing an aluminum exterior to save weight.
Q: Does purchasing the Inovo IN3625-R Oxygen Regulator require a medical prescription?
A: No. Under FDA regulations, oxygen regulators and flowmeter hardware sold individually are Class I medical accessories and do not require a prescription. However, compressed medical oxygen gas inside cylinders remains a prescription item.
Q: Which oxygen cylinder valve types will the IN3625-R regulator fit?
A: The IN3625-R features a CGA 870 pin-index yoke connection, designed specifically for post-valve cylinders such as portable M6, M9, C, D, and E tanks. It will not fit large stationary cylinders (like H or K tanks) that require a threaded CGA 540 connection.
