Harris HP742 CGA 346 USP Air Regulator
The Harris HP742 is a two-stage stainless steel regulator with a CGA 346 inlet for medical-grade (USP) air. Its 316L stainless steel body and diaphragm suit grade 6.0 gases and applications where either the internal gas or the external environment is harsh or corrosive. See all models in our Stainless Steel Regulators.
Gas service: CGA 346
CGA 346 is used only for USP (medical grade) air and breathing air. For industrial or zero air, which uses CGA 590, choose the CGA 590 version instead. The Harris HP742 is the stainless choice for medical grade air in corrosive or harsh surroundings.
