ESAB ICO 32B (2 Gauge) CO₂ Single Stage Regulator

The ESAB ICO 32B CO2 Regulator is a professional single-stage carbon dioxide regulator designed for MIG welding applications. It features a two-gauge configuration that allows the operator to monitor gas pressure during welding operations.

Designed specifically for CO₂ service, the ICO 32B provides controlled gas regulation from the high-pressure cylinder to the welding system. Its compact design and industrial construction make it suitable for fabrication workshops, maintenance operations and professional MIG welding environments.

ESAB ICO 32B CO2 Regulator for MIG Welding

The ESAB ICO 32B CO2 Regulator is designed primarily for MIG welding applications where carbon dioxide is used as the shielding gas. A stable shielding-gas supply is essential for maintaining consistent arc performance and protecting the weld pool from atmospheric contamination.

The ICO 32B uses single-stage pressure regulation and provides a maximum flow rate of 35 L/min, equivalent to approximately 74 ft³/h. This flow capacity makes the regulator suitable for a range of professional MIG welding operations.

2-Gauge Single Stage Design

The ESAB ICO 32B features two pressure gauges. The two-gauge arrangement provides useful pressure information for the operator during operation, helping monitor the gas supply and regulated pressure.

The single-stage regulator design reduces the pressure from the CO₂ cylinder to a suitable working pressure for the connected welding system. The regulator should always be operated within its specified pressure and flow limits.

200 Bar Maximum Inlet Pressure

The ESAB ICO 32B CO2 Regulator has a maximum inlet pressure of 200 bar. It is designed for use with suitable CO₂ cylinders and compatible welding gas equipment.

The regulator provides a maximum gas flow of 35 L/min, or approximately 74 ft³/h. Users should select the appropriate operating flow according to the welding process, torch configuration, material, joint design and shielding requirements.

Connections

The ESAB ICO 32B uses a 0.860 × 14 TPI right-hand female inlet connection and a 3/8-inch BSP right-hand male outlet connection.

Before installation, always confirm that the regulator connections match the CO₂ cylinder valve and downstream gas hose or welding equipment. Do not force incompatible fittings or attempt to modify the regulator connections.

Industrial Construction

The ESAB ICO 32B CO2 Regulator is designed for professional industrial use. Published specifications identify a robust construction and a neoprene-based diaphragm/seat arrangement for gas regulation.

The regulator also incorporates a safety relief arrangement. This provides an additional safety feature for pressure regulation, but it does not replace correct installation, inspection and safe operating procedures.

Applications

The ESAB ICO 32B is suitable for applications including:

• MIG welding
• CO₂ shielding-gas welding
• Fabrication workshops
• Metal fabrication
• Industrial maintenance
• Welding repair operations
• General manufacturing
• Professional welding stations

It is particularly relevant where CO₂ is used as the shielding gas for MIG welding.

Why Choose the ESAB ICO 32B?

The ESAB ICO 32B CO2 Regulator combines a two-gauge design with single-stage pressure regulation in a compact industrial regulator. Its 200 bar maximum inlet pressure and 35 L/min maximum flow provide suitable capacity for many professional CO₂ MIG welding applications.

The product is identified by ESAB product number 4330193100. ESAB’s current equipment documentation lists the ICO 32B under its single-stage regulator range and identifies it as a two-gauge carbon dioxide regulator.

When selecting a CO₂ regulator, it is important to use a regulator specifically intended for the gas being supplied. Always verify cylinder compatibility, inlet connection, outlet connection and operating pressure before installation.
