Which gas reulator?

Which gas regulator?

I'm advised to fit a marine gas reulator to my bottles by my insurance company.

This little video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnbpWIYKU_8 describes gasses

and the second video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnbpWIYKU_8 shows how to fit a regulator.

BUT.... which is the correct MARINE regulator for my Calor 907 bottles?

S.

oh Bu88er how do I edit the title?

Talk to will Hayward , I think the address is www.whayward.com or google it if it's not correct.

He deals in marine gas and has been very helpful and honest with us in the past.

No connection just a satisfied customer.

This is the first time I have heard of an insurance company advising a marine regulator. It had to happen and eventually they will insist no doubt.


If you are fitting the regulator directtly to your 907 bottle then you need a Haywards GasBoat 4005 Camping Gaz regulator see http://www.whayward.com/Results.cfm?category=23&secondary=24 Or the equivalnt from another manufacturer

also the hose nozzle to attach your hose to it.


You also have the option to fit a bulkhead mounted regulator ( 4006 or equivalent) together with an adapter valve on the cylinder and a high pressure hose between them.

You can edit the title by going "advanced" but it may not change it in the index... I have an idea that's carved on a tablet of stone

Strangely, that seems to be about the only "marine" regulator for a Camping Gaz bottle. However, it's a few quid cheaper here - http://www.gasproducts.co.uk/acatalog/Sirius_Marine_Gas_Regulator_-_Campingaz.html

Well....

I started to type "you need either a Haywards .................... or a " but then I went looking for a link to what I though would follow and failed to find one! I was expecting to find a Gaslow one.


however Socal also offer a couple of Gok ones http://www.socal.co.uk/toolbox/regulators-adaptors/low-pressure/marine-regulators.html?p=2

At about twice the price, though. And did you notice the £999 price for the GasBOAT regulator?????

 

[sailorman]

Mine have just been replaced from BBS for about £3 each

But not "marine" regulators?

 

[stuey_two]

Sailorman, can you give contact details for BBS? Thanks

 

[bitbaltic]

Marine has engineer fitted a Hayward a couple of years ago. Smelt of gas, all the time- which means it was leaking. No idea how, replaced it with a five quid chandlery job which is non-marine and does not leak. Would not bother with the Hayward again.

Thanks Vic,
my first posting header changed but that's as much as I can do it seems.

Correction.... I should have said the surveyor mentioned it in his report to my insurance company as a 'must do'.

I fitted the 4006 dual fuel bulkhead mounting regulator. http://www.marinecooker.co.uk/gas_regulators.html
Main reason was that I can change between butane and propane with only a change of pigtail which are easily and cheaply available.. The pigtails are marginally easier to fit to the bottles.

Thereby hangs the tail.What gas qualification does he hold

 

[VicS]

http://www.gasproducts.ie/acatalog/Gaslow_Marine_Gas_Regulator_with_Gauge.html

for direct fitting on Calor butane cyls. Does not fit CG 907s which is what the Op was asking for.

 

[VicS]

I suspect that might be a mistake.

The start of the slippery slope. Now it has been drawn to the attention of the insurance co. it can only be a question of time before it is applied to everyone.

Thereby hangs the tail.What gas qualification does he hold

He presumably has a professional qualification as a yacht surveyor. What additional "gas qualification" would he need. He is not an installer so there is no need to be Gas Safe registered,
