Know before you buy
The two gauges serve distinct functions: the 2000 lb gauge monitors the remaining volume of CO2 in your tank, while the 60 lb gauge allows you to precisely set and monitor the output pressure being delivered to your keg.
Yes, the unit arrives pre-assembled. You will only need to attach it to your CO2 tank and connect your gas line to the 5/16" barbed shutoff to begin dispensing.
The back check valve is a critical safety feature that prevents beer from flowing backward into your regulator if the pressure in the keg exceeds the pressure in the gas line. This protects your equipment from damage and contamination.
Yes, it is specifically designed for use with Cornelius kegs. The 5/16" barbed fitting is the standard size for most homebrew gas lines used in these setups.
The solid brass body provides excellent structural integrity and resistance to wear, while the zinc bonnet with its powder-coat finish adds a layer of corrosion resistance. This combination ensures the regulator can withstand the humid environment often found in kegerators or draft systems.
