ABSTRACT:
A gas pressure reducing regulator which includes a flexible diaphragm which is biased by a spring so as to control the opening of the valve of the regulator and thus the delivery pressure of the gas being regulated. The regulator includes provision for effectively containing an accidental oxygen fire, or the like, within the body of the regulator, and protecting the internal components from ignition. Also, the regulator has provision for venting the interior of the regulator to the atmosphere in the event of an excessive overpressure therein.
