E-Yoke Regulator O2
ACCUTRON, INC. · Model 35013
A device designed to hold and secure a single medical gas cylinder of compressed medical gas which is to be used in medical treatment/therapy. The usual gases are, [e.g., oxygen (O2), air, or nitrous oxide (N2O)]. It is used to secure the cylinder both during transport and typically whilst the gas is being used. The device is typically constructed of metal and may be mounted to a medical device service rail system, a bed under transport, or other medical devices requiring medical gas to be present. It is configured to meet the size of the cylinder, typically those of small dimensions.
Key tips
- ·When no category-specific guidance fits, default to the manufacturer's own service manual and the general troubleshooting method in the Engineer's Guide.
- ·Run an incoming and annual electrical safety test regardless of how niche the device is.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Leak at the yoke or gauge
HighSymptoms: Hiss when the cylinder is opened, cylinder empties quickly, frost on fittings.
Root cause: Missing or worn yoke washer / bodok seal, a loose gauge, or a diaphragm leak.
Delivered pressure / flow incorrect
MediumSymptoms: Flow does not match the setting, downstream device under- or over-supplied.
Root cause: Regulator diaphragm / spring drift, or a blocked inlet filter.
Pin-index / cylinder-fit fault
MediumSymptoms: Wrong cylinder can be fitted, or the correct one will not seat.
Root cause: Damaged pin-index pins or the yoke.
Gauge inaccurate or damaged
LowSymptoms: Contents gauge reads high / low or is cracked.
Root cause: Worn or damaged Bourdon-tube gauge.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Follow the manufacturer's PM schedule
- ·Perform incoming and annual electrical safety testing per facility biomedical program
Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Leak at the yoke
- Close the cylinder and bleed the regulator.
- Fit a new yoke washer / bodok seal.
- Re-mount the cylinder and open it slowly, checking with leak-detection fluid.
- Tighten or replace a leaking gauge.
- Replace the diaphragm kit if the body leaks.
Symptom: Delivered pressure / flow wrong
- Compare the delivered flow to the setting with a calibrated flow meter.
- Check and clean the inlet filter.
- Verify against a reference regulator.
- Rebuild with the diaphragm / spring kit or replace the regulator.
- Re-verify the flow at several settings.
