Building a Regulator for Calcium Reactor

[Afm32607]

I’d like to make my own two stage regulator for my calcium reactor. However I’m having problems finding the parts I need. Everything has options and I don’t know if I need them or if one part forces me to have to find a connector. This is especially true when looking at site with industrial parts, a concoa 332 regulator has five elements that can be changes and each of the five have several options.

I’d like a dual stage regular in stainless steel. I’d prefer to buy everything new and not work through eBay.

Anyone have a link to a reliable roadmap to get everything? Every post seems to be missing one or more items that they are buying second hand or already had.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Very helpful, thank you, just started reading the above thread.

For anyone interested, Ideal and Swagelock offer direct to consumer sales for valves and fittings/regulators respectively.

Have had the hardest time finding anyone to just sell what I was looking for in a new condition, at any cost.

Check out affinityaquatics on ebay. He has a couple for sale. It's who I got mine from.
You dont need a new one as they last a long time if put together right.
