Lancer Single Body Regulator Gauge Guard - RK1000-0051

The Lancer Gauge Guard for Single Body Regulator is a heavy-duty steel protective cage designed to encapsulate the pressure dial of a CO2 regulator. In the high-activity environment of a back-room syrup rack, regulators are frequently exposed to impacts from BIB box changes or gas cylinder swaps. This guard serves as a structural shield to prevent the gauge lens from shattering or the internal needle mechanism from becoming misaligned.

Problem Solved: Prevents costly gas leaks and inaccurate pressure readings caused by damaged regulator faces. A shattered gauge can lead to a total loss of carbonation control, resulting in 'flat' or 'syrupy' drinks that ruin the customer experience.

Symptoms of Failure: Cracked or shattered gauge glass, a needle that is stuck or non-responsive to pressure adjustments, or audible CO2 leaks originating from the regulator stem interface after a physical impact.

Technician’s Note: When installing the guard, ensure there is sufficient clearance to still read the dial clearly. If the guard is bent during an impact, replace it immediately; a bent guard can put constant lateral pressure on the regulator body, causing the internal diaphragm to fail.Technical Specifications:
  • Material: Heavy-Gauge Zinc-Plated Steel
  • Application: CO2 Regulator Protection
  • Manufacturer: Lancer
  • Type: Single-Body Compatibility
