Product Usage Instructions

Safety Information

The regulator must not be positioned lower than the top of the
tank or outlet valve to prevent gas vapor from draining into the
regulator.
Ensure any additional pipes or hoses used are inclined so that
liquefied or condensed gas can drain back into the tank.

Installation

Make sure the gas cylinder is turned off before dismounting
it.

Leak Test Procedure

Perform a leak test before using the regulator. Refer to the
user manual for detailed instructions on conducting a leak
test.

Excess Flow Valve Feature (EFV)

The regulator is equipped with an Excess Flow Valve for added
safety. Ensure it is functioning properly before each use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Single-Stage, Low Pressure LP Gas Regulator Type A121is, A127is 2531CS-0140 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS TO BE KEPT BY THE USER
Read carefully before use
Safety Information
· Always install the regulator in Gas OFF position only. · In normal conditions of use, in order to ensure a safe operation of installation, it is recommended that the regulator should be
changed every 5 years from the date of manufacture. · For outdoor use, the device should be positioned and protected against direct contact of water. · Before installation make sure that the rubber seal/gasket in the cylinder valve or regulator is in good condition. · Make sure all valves on the appliance are turned off. · Cylinder to be kept in an upright position during use. · PVC hoses must be in a good condition, with no signs of wear or damage, and should not be more than 5 years old. · Do not try to remove the regulator while the gas is ON. · Do not move the cylinder while in operation. · Do not change the cylinder in the presence of any sources of ignition such as naked flames · When the regulator is installed downstream of another regulator, the supply pressure range shall be correct for the regulated
pressure range of the upstream regulator,plus any pressure losses in the interconnecting pipe work. · That downstream installation pressure loss shall not exceed the P marked on the device. · If fitting the regulator indirectly to a pressurized tank:
– The regulator must not be positioned lower than top of the tank or outlet valve. – This is to avoid any gas vapor which may have re-liquefied from draining down into the regulator. – Any additional pipes or hoses used to connect the regulator must be inclined so that any liquefied or condensed gas can drain back into tank.
Installation
Before installing: · Check the gasket/seal on the cylinder valve is in place and in good condition. · If the gas valve is not in good condition, ask your dealer to replace it with another cylinder valve. · Conduct a visual inspection of the regulator. Remove any dirt or loose metal shavings. · Fit the gas hose to the gas appliance. Use water or liquid soap for lubrication of the hose. Insert the hose firmly onto the valve
tailpiece and clamp it securely using the hose clamp provided. · In total absence of any flame, remove the protection seal or cap from the gas cylinder valve and attach the regulator to the gas
cylinder. · Press the push button horizontally, mount the regulator onto the cylinder valve and press the regulator firmly down into place
before releasing the push button. · After ensuring that the regulator is connected firmly on to the cylinder, turn on the gas supply by turning the lever, · Perform a leak test as detailed in section 3 below. If no leaks are indicated, the gas appliance can be started up. · Once you have finished using the gas appliance, ensure that the gas supply control on both the gas appliance and the gas
cylinder are turned to the OFF position before dismounting the gas cylinder.
Leak Test Procedure
· It is important that all gas connections have been correctly connected to prevent any gas leaks. · The correct way to conduct a gas leak test is to smear all joints along the connection i.e. between the hose and appliance as
well as between the regulator and the gas cylinder, with soapy water. Turn the appliance control knob slightly anti-clockwise to turn the gas on. If bubbles form at any of the joints, then there is a gas leak. Immediately turn the gas off and disconnect the gas supply from the appliance. · Check that all gaskets/seasl are in place and in good condition before reconnecting the gas supply. · Ensure that all the connections are properly fitted. · Re-check with soapy water after refitting the gas supply. · If a gas leak persists, return the product to your local dealer for inspection/repair.
Excess Flow Valve Feature (EFV)
· The regulator is equipped with a manual excess flow valve, a safety feature that automatically cuts off gas flow in the event that the hose is compromised. The excess flow valve is activated during the use of the gas appliance: – If the gas appliance consumes more gas than 110% of the regulators rated capacity. – If the gas hose is disconnected. – If the hose burns through as a result of fire, or if the hose is cut through by accident.
