Gas cylinders can have an internal pressure of close to 3000 psi. An aerosol can used at home, has an internal pressure of about 80 PSI, yet if punctured can seriously injure people standing around it. You can only imagine the amount of damage that a cylinder can inflict in case of an accident. These accidents usually happen due to poor storage of the cylinders or use of wrong or malfunctioned valve. Good valves are designed by following the proper specifications. In order to ensure safety you need to get a valve with a good regulator assembly.
How it works
In order to understand the importance of getting a good regulator, you need to understand regulator assembly. An orifice is used to measure the operating pressure of the gas. This is the pressure that is going through the pipe. It is important that the right amount of pressure is delivered to the burners in order to ensure the gas is burning properly. The purpose of the orifice is to ensure gas is burning as it should by controlling the pressure coming from the pipes to the cylinders. It is also used to ensure safety.regulator assembly
