Compact 900g unit with simple-to-read pressure gauge, built-in safety relief valve, and 3-year service intervals make it a low-maintenance regulator for clinical and ambulance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSimple-to-read oxygen pressure gauge\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstant delivery pressure of 400 kPa (fixed)\u003c\/strong\u003e — clinical-standard supply pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegulated flow rate: 80 L\/min\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet connection AS 2896 (SIS) sleeve index for oxygen\u003c\/strong\u003e — Australian medical standard.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafety relief valve built in\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-year service intervals\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact 900g device weight\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplies with AS3840.1\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5-year limited warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGas service: Medical oxygen\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSet pressure: 400 kPa (fixed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlow rate: 80 L\/min\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutlet: AS 2896 SIS sleeve index (oxygen)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eService interval: 3 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 900 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompliance: AS3840.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWarranty: 5-year limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it fits in the range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 197M Oxygen Regulator is the simpler, fixed-pressure variant in the Gentec 197M family. The 197M Medical Gas Regulator (separate SKU, AU$320) adds an adjustable yoke; the 197M-870-YSC and 197M-950-YSC variants add pin-index yoke designs for specific cylinder valve types. Pick the 197M Oxygen Regulator for standard Australian SIS oxygen output without yoke-system complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does AS 2896 SIS mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAustralian Standard 2896 specifies the Sleeve Index System for medical gas connections. SIS connections are gas-specific (oxygen, nitrous oxide, medical air) — preventing cross-connection of incompatible gases. Use the right SIS for the gas you're delivering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs 80 L\/min enough?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor most clinical uses, yes. High-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) and some specialist applications may need higher output — for those, look at the 197M-870-YSC (300 L\/min max).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the service interval really?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3-year scheduled service per Gentec recommendation.
