High pressure regulator + normal propane regulator? (1 Viewer)

[SwissBob]

About to buy a Spanish gas bottle adapter (no regulator) for circa 35€ but found a Spanish high pressure regulator for 15€. It can be set from 1 to 2 bar. As the onboard regulator is 38 mb would it be ok to have the two inline or am I being daft?

2bar is only 28 psi so a nit low

Bulkhead regulators are supposed to be OK up to 230 PSI which is 16 bar.

That sounds expensive for a Jumbo adapter, I paid around €10 for mine but it was a few years ago but seem to be around €15 online. Always used a Jumbo adapter connected to the onboard regulator when I used a Spanish bottle.

The answer is yes it should be fine as the standard pressure range on a leisure vehicle regulator is from 0.3 - 16 bar
Ideally you would find an adaptor not a regulator but turned up to full its well within the required operating parameters of your bulkhead regulator

That's cheap. To be fair I only tried the ferretería in town and there's more a but further out.

Thanks everyone. I'm going to trudge round the local hardware stores in Calpe and see if I can get an adapter with a G.12 first and fall back on this solution if not.

Update: regulator free adapter with correct fitting from a local ferriteria for €11; Result.
