  • regulator questions

    the regulator that came with my dynasty 200 is screwing up. is it worth it to get it rebuilt, or just buy a new flowmeter?

    austy 888,

    I'd go with a flowmeter they're much more accurate than a regulator and I think they last longer too.

      austy888,

      GOOD QUESTION.

      I have never tried, but wonder if Miller would warranty the reg if it is not too old???

      I prefer a flowmeter. They are simply easier to adjust. Gentec and Smith both make a good unit. Victor is good too if you buy high end model.

      Miller includes a regulator rather than a flowmeter in the "Contractors Kit" because it is a portable kit. Flowmeters do not usually survive a crash of a tipped argon bottle or similar accident possible in the mobile world.

        austy888,

        What is the reg doing??

        You may want to get it fixed and get a flow meter. A lot of times the repair is simple and not costly at all.

        MILLER will honor the warranty so I'd call if there was any question. Can't hurt to ask
