What is a Maxitrol regulator used for?

Maxitrol’s 325‑L Series line pressure regulators with OPDs are for use on piping systems up to 5 psi. The regulator reduces pounds pressure to a level within the appliance or equipment’s operating supply range. The line regulator is located upstream of equipment already fitted with an appliance regulator.

What pressure should propane regulator?

between 100 and 200 psi
Generally, propane pressure should be between 100 and 200 psi ensures that the liquid propane gas remains in a liquid state.

How many PSI is a grill regulator?

High pressure regulators regulate the output pressure from 1 psi to as high as 60 psi. There are a number of different high pressure regulators available. Some high pressure regulators are “preset”. That is, the propane pressure is fixed at a certain pressure; i.e., 10 psi or 20 psi.

What is the maximum inlet pressure gas?

Commercial and residential gas water heaters and boilers are design-certified to operate with a maximum inlet gas pressure. To identify the maximum inlet gas pressure, refer to the labeling on the appliance and/or gas control/valve. For reference, industry standard is 14” w.c. (1/2 psi).

Do gas regulators need to be vented?

The natural gas regulator is a critical component of the meter set and needs to be vented and should comply with local and federal venting requirements (may vary from county to county). The vent functions as a safety measure and allows the diaphragm within the regulator to breathe.

How do you increase gas pressure?

There are three ways to increase the pressure:

  1. Add more gas. More molecules mean more collisions.
  2. Decrease the volume. Less space means less room for the atoms to move in and this will lead to more collisions and more pressure.
  3. Increase the temperature.

Are propane grills high pressure or low pressure?

Pressure in a propane tank, large or small, can range between 100 and 200 psi…or even higher when the tank gets hot in the sun. This propane tank pressure must be reduced and be regulated for use in a home, motor home, camper, or an outdoor gas appliance.

Can a Maxitrol regulator turn off the flow of gas?

NOTE: GAS PRESSURE REGULATORS WILL NOT TURN OFF THE FLOW OF GAS. CAUTION: Never connect regulator directly to the propane supply source. Maxitrol regulators require an external regulator (NOT supplied). Install the external regulator between the propane supply source and Maxitrol regulator.

What is the inlet pressure of a Maxitrol propane regulator?

Inlet pressure (CSA rated and Maximum operating): 1/2 PSI (34 mbar). Ambient operating temperature range: 32°F – 225°F (0°C – 107°C). NOTE: GAS PRESSURE REGULATORS WILL NOT TURN OFF THE FLOW OF GAS. CAUTION: Never connect regulator directly to the propane supply source. Maxitrol regulators require an external regulator (NOT supplied).
