Direct and remote vent connections
The planned design includes direct-mount male and remote-mount female configurations. The exact regulator and vent arrangement determine whether an application can be evaluated.
Guardian Vent Guard
Gas regulator vent protection starts with the exact model.
A hooded gas pressure regulator vent protector concept, designed to shed driving rain while preserving a clear, indirect vent path. Manufacturer and model details guide application review.
In development · Direct sales planned on this site
Planned NPT family
Planned sizes are 1/8, 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 NPT, with 3/4 NPT under future review. These are development configurations, not a released fitment chart.
A vent protector, not a regulator
Vent Guard is not a gas pressure regulator, gas valve, vent limiter or shutoff device. Final flow, material, environmental performance and model-specific compatibility require validation before release.
EQUIPMENT IDENTIFICATION
Gas regulator manufacturers and gas valve names
Use the equipment nameplate and original manufacturer documentation to identify a model. The reference links below help start that review; they are not a Vent Guard compatibility list.
Gas pressure regulator references
- Maxitrol
- Fisher / Emerson
- Tartarini / Emerson
- Pietro Fiorentini
- ROOTS / Actaris Gas Regulators
- USG (legacy Sensus regulators)
- BelGAS
- Marshall Excelsior (MEC)
- RegO
- DUNGS
- Honeywell Kromschröder / Maxon
Identifying an older Itron gas regulator? Dresser Utility Solutions now holds those regulator product lines. Refer to current ROOTS or Actaris literature and the exact model.
Gas valve and control references
A valve/control search may lead here, but only a separately identified, suitable regulator vent can be considered for this concept. Brand names belong to their respective owners. No affiliation or endorsement is implied.
Fit and availability
Does a manufacturer name establish compatibility?
No. Identify the manufacturer, exact model, vent connection, mounting orientation and manufacturer instructions. No brand-wide compatibility or manufacturer endorsement is represented.
Is a gas valve the same as a regulator vent?
No. Gas valves and gas pressure regulators perform different functions. A gas valve or control name alone does not establish an appropriate Vent Guard application.
When will Vent Guard be sold?
Sales are planned directly through Guardian Engineered. No release date, final price, stock or shipping commitment has been published. The product remains in development.
