Product Information

Full details

This Sievert high-pressure regulator, model UTTK9387, is designed for users working with flammable gases who need a reliable 10kg pressure regulator. Its key benefit is the integrated hose failure valve, which enhances safety by stopping gas flow if a hose ruptures. A minor caveat is its specific P.O.L. fitting, making it exclusively for flammable gas applications.

FAQs

What type of gas is this regulator suitable for?

This regulator is designed specifically for flammable gases, such as propane, due to its P.O.L. fitting.

What does the hose failure valve do?

The hose failure valve is a safety feature that automatically stops the flow of gas if it detects a significant and sudden drop in pressure, typically caused by a damaged or severed hose.

What is a P.O.L. fitting?

P.O.L. stands for Prest-o-Lite. It is a standard fitting used exclusively for flammable gases, featuring a left-handed thread for connection to gas cylinders.

Can I use this regulator with natural gas?

No, this regulator is not suitable for natural gas. It is designed only for flammable gases with a P.O.L. fitting.

What is the outlet size of this regulator?

The outlet size is 3/8 inch, which is a common size for gas hoses.

How often should I check for leaks?

It is recommended to check for leaks every time you connect the regulator to a gas cylinder and periodically during use.

What is the typical delivery time?

Typically, dispatch occurs within 2 working days, with delivery usually completed in 3-5 working days within the UK mainland.

Troubleshooting

No gas flow from the outlet

Ensure the gas cylinder valve is fully open. Check that the regulator is securely connected to the cylinder. Verify the hose and any connected appliance are not blocked.

Gas leaks detected at the connection

Turn off the gas supply immediately. Re-seat the regulator connection to the cylinder, ensuring a tight fit. If leaks persist, the O-ring or fitting may be damaged; discontinue use and replace the regulator.

Intermittent gas flow

Check for kinks or damage in the connected hose. Ensure the gas cylinder has sufficient pressure. The hose failure valve may have engaged due to a sudden pressure drop; reset by closing and reopening the cylinder valve slowly.

Regulator not maintaining pressure

Inspect the entire gas line for leaks. Ensure the appliance connected is not consuming gas at a rate exceeding the regulator's capacity. If the issue persists, the regulator may require servicing or replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced safety with a built-in hose failure valve.
  • Reliable 10kg pressure output for consistent performance.
  • Secure connection for flammable gases due to the P.O.L. fitting.
  • Durable construction for long-term use.

Cons

  • Limited to flammable gas applications due to P.O.L. fitting.
  • Not suitable for low-pressure systems.
  • Requires compatible gas cylinders with P.O.L. valves.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the gas cylinder valve is fully closed.
  2. Connect the P.O.L. fitting of the regulator securely to the gas cylinder valve. Ensure it screws on smoothly without cross-threading.
  3. Slowly open the gas cylinder valve.
  4. Check for any leaks using a suitable leak detection solution.

Compatibility:

  • This regulator is designed for use with flammable gases such as propane.
  • It requires a gas cylinder equipped with a P.O.L. (Prest-o-Lite) valve connection.
  • The outlet connection is 3/8 inch, compatible with standard hose fittings for this size.

Care:

  • Periodically inspect the regulator and hose for any signs of damage, wear, or corrosion.
  • Store the regulator in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
  • Never attempt to service or repair the regulator yourself; consult a qualified professional if issues arise.
