LPG Bottle Connector Question

[davida71uk]

Hi Folks,

We have an underslung LPG tank on our Autotrail Mohawk. As backup I also have a full 13kg Calor cylinder which we’re more likely to take when off EHU or at festivals for example. We may just get through more gas then when we don’t have EHU.

There are valves crossing the LPG tank feed and Calor regulator feed. When using the LPG tank gas I’ll ensure bottle regulator feed valve is closed but wanted to attach a closed face connector to the threaded male propane bottle hose.

What are they called? I just want to seal off that hose as well as closing the valve crossing that feed so propane from the LPG tank does not exit out of the bottle hose as it won’t be attached to a bottle. It will also protect the thread on the propane bottle connector. We’re going to use the bottle locker as a boot locker/extra storage.

Cheers.

One of these? (Other suppliers are available )

Hey Itsmcb, that’s the ticket. Looks a little DIY but will meet the requirements. I was just at a loss as to what input Google needed.

And now I see Amazon is rife with them.

if you have a bbq point its probaby easier to use a reg on the bottle and back feed gas in that way

There is a hose to connect a calor bottle to your lpg fill point.£18 from gaslow.not worth messing about changing regulators about. There is another post on here with a picture.
