How To Make Special Custom Pigtail For The Tank-to-tank Refill Of Gas Cylinder Bottles You might much be offered by some vendors or similar store can sell you a standard ready made pigtail with the UK POL propane fitting on one end and the appliance fitting on the other. You can have one end of a custom pigtail tired together into one that can actually serve dual purpose. To complete the custom pigtail for a tank-to-tank refill. You will need to start with a spare POL-to-regulator pigtail. To make the pigtail, you will need a leak-proof hose. Chose to use a long double-bard union hose. This will now allow you to connect the two different kinds of tanks or gas cylinder bottles. Then, cut the pigtail in half and join the NA POL (the hose segment with covered POL fitting in). NOTE: You need to follow the provided step by step instructions for doing a tank-to-tank refill, following all safety precautions, as this is known to be an illegal refuelling method. This is a slow and somewhat inefficient process. My choice was to join the other half of that pigtail you cut in half (the one with the invented POL fitting at the end) to the same regulator fitting + hose, and you will be able to have a gas-tight connection between a gas cylinder and your regulator. Good ahead and use your custom tank-to-tank pigtail. The one connecting your gas cylinder valve to the POL installed regulator. When you build a custom pigtail (self-made), make sure you diligently perform a soapy test each time you work on the propane system. If you are tempted to install a 12.5kg regulator in conjunction with using a 3kg diaphragm type valve, with hose and adapter, keep in mind the regulator well not fix in the cylinder bottle valve. You might want to check with your gas cylinder bottle whether that will work with the connection. To do a tank-to-tank refill from a 3kg cylinder bottle, you will need to construct another custom pigtail like the one described for the diaphragm valve type, with a POL fitting connector at one end joined to the POL + hose.

A digital scale is always recommended for use at LPG plants. If your gas skid filling system do not come with an attached scale, you should consider getting one. Obtain a digital scale with two dashboard screens. The front view to help you keep watch the gas reading, while the back screen for transparency. To scale properly, make sure your digital scale is set on a flat, plain level surface floor, and not rested on any object or wall. Do not rest your body on the scale during operation. Best digital scale, with back and front view, is the CAMRY brand. PRODUCT: CAMRY TCS: 150 - JE6228 MAX: 150 KG/330 lb MIN: 1000 g/ 2.2 lb d= 50 g It comes with easy and simple dashboard with TARE, ZERO, ON/OFF, BRIGHTNESS LED and also a long lasting BATTERY. Make sure your digital scale is always fully charged, so it won't shut down all of a sudden during operation. The CAMRY brand comes with a battery level INDICATOR (bar), which allows you to know the percentage level of power remaining before a shutdown. When scale is not in use, make sure you switch "off" completely. Switching it off from the dashboard won't shut down digital scale, it only puts it in sleep mode. Remember to also switch off from the main terminal, the back circuit. Always use suitable adapter to charge your digital scale, under stable power supply so to avoid damages. Input: 100 - 240v - 50/60 Hz => 100mA Output: 6v ----> 500mA Different types of scale is available for weighing gas cylinder bottles. Just put the gas cylinder bottle on the scale platform, clip in the refilling nozzle. TARE and start refilling. However, modern LPG refilling skid now has digital scale inserted with the gas pump dispenser. Here=> https://www.naijalpg.com.ng/2022/12/lpg-refilling-best-digital-scale-for.html?m=1

Camping Gas Cylinder plus she image LPG gas is stored in liquid form in a steel container, cylinder or tank - and connected through a hose pipe from the regulator outlet to your kitchen appliance that is being fuelled. For a permanent use outside the house, LPG tanks/bottles should always be kept in vertical position outdoor and just connected to the appliance by permanent piping. This would greatly reduce the risk of leaks and explosions. For example, if the connection to the cylinder leaks, if outdoor, it usually just dissipates. When the regulator knob of the BBQ gas cylinder is turned on, it releases the gas into the supply appliance. There is only one way for the gas to flow through the hose pipe and it reaches the gas stove. So, the knob and the regulator are operated by a simple method. Never leave the gas cylinder bottle connected in "ON" position. Do not leave the regulator in "ON" position after cooking is over or during night. They can blow over the burner and catch fire with any trigger. The valve on the LPG cylinder and the appliance knob allow the gas to pass through the regulator to the gas stove. Always remember to switch "OFF" the LPG cylinder regulator outdoor after cooking, then go to switch "OFF" the appliance switch indoor. Do not switch off the gas stove appliance last, the gas cylinder bottle should be the first thing you turn off, because this then cut off gas supply immediately. Also, always check the rubber tubes associated with your LPG cylinders. They should not be damaged or found to be leaking.
