Century Fuel Products: How A Regulator Works

Propane Tanks
Propane tanks contain a flammable liquid that is pumped from larger tanks into the smaller ones used for the home consumer.  Since this gas is a liquid under pressure that becomes a lighter-than-air substance when being consumed, it can build to a very high pressure.  This pressure must be regulated as it exits the tanks, or else it can rupture hoses or, worse yet, create a substantial explosion.  Pressure regulators are generally used on propane systems for this exact reason, to dispense the liquid in the tank so it can be consumed in a safe and efficient manner.

Propane Regulators and Their Connections
Propane regulators and their connections to propane tanks are made of brass.  Brass is normally used because it is resistant to sparking. In other words, if you were to slip with the wrench when tightening the fitting from the regulator to the tank, a spark would not necessarily be created.  Sparks and propane can lead to a deadly combination.  Aluminum is another metal that is used in the construction of the regulator.  Not only is the metal lightweight, but it also has a resistance to being a spark generator.  Generally, the housing that holds the mechanism of the regulator is made of aluminum.  Most regulators look as if they were modeled from a flying saucer.  This saucer design contains the interior controlling diaphragm.  At the top and center of the saucer is a round cap.  This round cap contains the pressure spring.

Century Fuel Products: What Are The Dangers of Gasoline

Breathing: Exposure occurs when people breathe gasoline vapors while filling gas tanks. Exposure may also occur when using contaminated water to bathe or do laundry. Some people intentionally inhale gasoline vapors to get "high."

Drinking / Eating: Low level exposure can occur when contaminated water is used for drinking or preparing food.

Touching: Some ingredients in gasoline can pass through the skin when used as a cleaner or accidentally spilled on skin or clothing. People can also be exposed when handling contaminated soil or water.

Bearcat GN5200 Natural Gas Or Low Pressure Propane Conversion (Dual Fuel) Kit

Bearcat GN5200 Natural Gas or Low Pressure Propane Conversion (Dual Fuel) Kit uses an adapter that makes it possible to operate natural gas and gasoline. Most homes provide low pressure natural gas or low pressure propane. This kit does not support high pressure propane that comes from a tank. Adapters will mix the Propane or Natural Gas into the air stream above the gasoline carburetor. The gasoline carburetor remains basically untouched. So this kit is not a conversion, it is an adaptation. This is the most common method of conversion and it is the least expensive.
