Regulator
Propane regulators must always be installed with the regulator vent
facing downward. Regulators that are not in compartments have
been equipped with a protective cover. Make sure that the regulator
vent faces downward and that the cover is kept in place to minimize
vent blockage that could result in regulator not operating correctly.
The regulator has the only moving components in the propane
system. It’s sole function is to reduce the high and varied pressure
from the propane containers to safe and consistent low operating
pressure. The small inlet is the first stage, which reduces the
container pressure to 10-13 pounds.
The second stage then reduces the 10-13
pound pressure to an operating pressure of 11
inches w.c. (water column) or 6.35 ounces of outlet pressure to your
appliances. The second stage is adjustable and may need to be
adjusted for precise operation. We suggest this to be normal
maintenance and performed once per year. Do not make this
adjustment without a manometer. This instrument is required to
read actual pressure.
If pressure is too high, it affects performance and safety. Should
pressure be too low, appliances will not operate correctly. An
authorized technician with proper equipment should perform such
tests and make adjustments, as required.
Two types of propane regulators are used on KZ products. First, is
the standard two stage regulator with a brass T-check fitting to
connect two propane bottles. We suggest opening only one bottle
at a time. Should you open both bottles, they will draw vapor
together, resulting in both tanks becoming empty at the same time.
This standard regulator is used on smaller coaches.
The second type is the “automatic” two stage regulator used on
larger coaches (optional on smaller coaches). With both cylinders
