L.P.-GAS
SYSTEM
L.P.-gas
(liquid Petroleum)
is
a material composed of various
hydrocarbons such as propane, propy'iene, butanes, butylenes, or a
mixture of them.
In
its gaseous form (vaporized) it is colorless and
carries an added garlic-like odor for detection. Besides being
flammable, it
is
potentially lethal to inhale. L.P.-gas is
compressed into liquid for storage and transportation.
L.P.-gas
will
vaporize during extreme cold
(-40°F.).

L.P.-GAS
CONTAINER
The L.P.-gas tank mounted
on
your vehicle contains
L.P.-fuel
in
liquid form under pressure.
As
fuel is used, vapor (L.P.-gas)
passes from the top of the tank through
a
dual-stage regulator
which
reduces the pressure to about
6
1/2
ounces per square inch. Vapor at
the low pressure is then transferred through
the
gas distribution fines
for appliance use. You
must
keep
the
regulator clean
and
dry. Its
cover should remain
in
place,
and
its vent placed
according
to the
manufacturer's instructions.
