FS: Aerox Regulator, Cannula and Mask

Moving from an ASW-20 to a 27 with
automatic hookups left me with a smaller
oxygen cylinder and last year I ran out on a
couple flights. Then a couple weeks ago I
knocked my cylinder over breaking the
flowmeter - $62 at W&W; so decided to
bite the bullet and switch to Mountain
High.

The single outlet regulator with pressure
gauge + mask(unused) + Oxysaver
cannula add up a bit over $250.

$150 obo takes it.

Can you email me at Zen1960 at live bot com. I will spring for it. Looking to put on in my KA6CR.

public service announcement... this:

http://www.chiefaircraft.com/ao-4110-621.html

so far, appears less likely to fall apart in normal use vs the right angle flow controls

http://wingsandwheels.com/oxygen-equ...flowmeter.html

still being sold at popular soaring supply houses. The right angle jobs seem to last about three wave camps. Mine broke on the ground, others have been less fortunate. The plastic flowmeter housing generally breaks just above the needle valve.

People still fly with manually adjusted oxygen systems? :-o

That's like flying with a mechanical vario (no audio).
It can be done but is it really in one's best interest to be constantly fiddling with things inside the cockpit?

Well, he'll if we are selling used oxygen equipment, I have two older Aerox flow meters, $35 takes both, I could probably throw in one or more of the "oxsaver" cannula. Moved to Moutain high years ago. Contact me privately.

Sure. I fly about ten flights a year with ox... and most of those to altitude where the MH system isn't really the preferred tool.

btw... "constantly fiddling" (in general) means "you're doing it wrong". :-o

Those cheaply made flow meters are for the birds. I bought medical
grade panel-mount flow meters for my Sinus (experimental) at 2/3 the
cost and they're far superior in materials and quality. If you don't
have panel space to mount one, you could lay it in your lap just like
the other one, though it's a bit more substantial. Here's a link to an
example: https://www.dwyer-inst.com/Product/F...Area/SeriesOMA

The listed site says you can use the flow meter with any O2 system. That is wrong and could be dangerous. Do not use with a Mountain High system.

Dan, what flow rate is used for what altitude?

I don't recall exactly. I carried a pulse oximeter to keep tabs on O2
saturation. Take a look at this link:
http://www.c-f-c.com/gaslink/docs/abo4.htm
http://www.c-f-c.com/gaslink/docs/abo4.htm . Using that it appears
that 1 lpm/10,000' is the FAA recommended flow rate. Therefore, 1.8 lpm
at 18,000', but I'm certainly no expert and you'll have to make your own
choices.
