When using gas cylinders and bottles the exiting gas pressure needs to be controlled. This is done by means of a regulator. Low pressure regulators (LP) operate between approximately 28 & 37 mbars.
High pressure regulators (HP) mainly operate between 0.35 & 4 bar. Normally butane regulators are blue and propane regulators are red. To help you match a regulator to the correct gas bottle or cylinder we have given them a CG reference and added the type of connection. Please contact us for any further information.
There are many manufacturers of regulators such as Bullfinch, Cavagna, Clesse, Gaslow, Continental, Sievert & Truma and stockists will stock regulators that are different in appearance to those shown in our facility.
Many regulators are common to different suppliers for example a 37 mbar low pressure propane regulator with a POL fitting (CG2) will fit all 47kg cylinders irrespective of supplier. Please note that there are many regulators which have POL fittings for different applications.
