9.1 General safety rules for the use of liquid gas
facilities
The gas operation pressure is
30 mbar.
Inspection of the gas facilities
•
Hae the gas facilities checked by an expert
before the first use.
•
The gas facilities should be inspected by
an expert every two years. This inspection
should be documented on the inspection cer-
tificate in accordance with the German Asso-
ciation of Gas and Water Experts, worksheet
G 607, and EN 949.
•
Regulator knobs, hoses and waste gas out-
lets should also be inspected.
•
We recommend that you replace the safety
regulator knob and hose pipes fter 10 years at
the latest.
•
The owner/operator is responsible for arran-
ging the inspection. This also applies for ve-
hicles that are not licensed to drive on public
roads.
Installations and modifications
•
Installations and modifications may only be
conducted by an expert.
•
Only devices with a uniform inlet pressure of
30 mbar may be operated.
Regulator knobs and valves
•
Only use those regulator knobs custom-made
for vehicles, with a safety valve. Other regula-
tor knobs are not permissible in accordance
with the German Association of Gas and Wa-
ter Experts, worksheet G 607, and EN 949.
They are not sufficient to tolerate the im-
mense strain.
•
Pressure regulators must have a fixed output
pressure of 30 mbar. The requirements of EN
12864, Appendix D, apply accordingly. The
regulator must have a rate of flow of 1.2 kg/h.
Connections on gas pressure regu-
lators are screwed on counterclock-
wise.
