H2230A - Smith Equipment H2230A Standard Duty Flowmeter, 50 PSI, Ar/He/CO2

Precision Gas Control for Superior Welds

Achieving the perfect weld requires more than just a steady hand and the right voltage; it requires precise shielding gas coverage. The Smith Equipment H2230A Standard Duty Flowmeter is designed to give welders exactly that—reliable, accurate, and easy-to-read gas flow control. Whether you are setting up a new MIG station or refining your TIG process, this flowmeter takes the guesswork out of your gas settings. Its compact design fits easily into crowded setups, while the 1/4-inch NPT inlet makes it compatible with a wide range of regulators and pipeline drops.

One of the biggest frustrations in a busy shop is equipment durability. Traditional glass flow tubes can break easily if struck or tipped, leading to downtime and replacement costs. The H2230A solves this with a tough, shatter-resistant polycarbonate flow tube that can withstand the knocks and bumps of daily industrial use. But durability doesn't come at the cost of precision. The tube features a unique ball-centering guide that keeps the float steady and centered. This means you get an accurate reading every time, even if your tank or machine isn't sitting perfectly level. This accuracy helps you avoid porosity caused by low flow and saves you money by preventing the waste of expensive shielding gas caused by setting the flow too high.

Versatility is key for modern fabricators. This single unit comes with a triple-scale tube, allowing you to switch between Argon, Helium, and Argon/CO2 mixes without swapping out equipment. The extra-long tube spreads out the markings, making it incredibly easy to read your flow rate at a glance. Rated for 50 PSI inlet pressure, the H2230A is a workhorse component that ensures your shielding gas is delivered smoothly and consistently, letting you focus on laying down the perfect bead.
