■
Always use approved pipe thread compound suitable for
use with propane gas or natural gas.
■
Tighten all connections securely and check them all for
gas leaks using approved leak detectors.
■
The following views show general assembly of the
components.
■
The regulator must be installed so its vent, regardless of
regulator design or vent location, is always pointed
downward.
A. Installations using single stage regulators. See Fig. 3.
-- This shall only be accomplished on installations
where a single heater’s gas regulator is intended
to be connected to:
- A single 100 lb. cylinder
- A manifolded set of 100 lb. cylinders
(Up to 3 cylinders maximum)
- ASME Tank (500 Gallon 1,000 Gallon)
-- This type of regulator installation is typically
associated with heaters utilized in a construction
application.
FIG. 3
B. Installations using two stage regulation.
-- Connect the hose to a second stage regulator as
shown in Fig. 4 when two stage regulation is
required. Make sure the regulator’s vent is
positioned down.
-- Two stage regulation is used when a constant gas
supply pressure (typically 5-10 PSI) is required for
multiple heaters at an installation.
-- This type of installation is typically associated
with heaters applied within an agriculture
confinement building.
