9 TOGETHER WE’RE GOING PLACES
Externally sited cylinders
Gas cylinders should not be sited outside the
vehicle and gas hoses should never be extended to
accommodate this. Hose lengths should be no more
than 400mm (+50mm/-100mm).
If gas bottles are to be removed for a long period of
time, please take care to ensure that debris cannot
enter the gas system via the open pipe work.
Flue installation
All flue installations should be inspected for corrosion
once a year, throughout their lifetime. If any sign of
perforation is detected, the flue should be replaced.
Please ensure the replacement flue is of the correct
type and is installed by an approved engineer.
Gas safety valves
Gas flows from the cylinder, via a regulator, to a set
of safety shut o valves that supply each individual
appliance in the vehicle. The valves allow isolation of
a single appliance without aecting the operation of
any other equipment. Each valve has a symbol fixed
to it that indicates which appliance it is supplying.
The location of the isolation valves vary from model
to model and, depending on the layout, some
vehicles may have two individual sets of valves. Please
familiarise yourself with the location of these valves
before using your vehicle for the first time.
