How to adjust the gas tank pressure regulator if it is screwed? Can you turn it up or down?

The pressure regulator of the gas tank is out of order. You can adjust the knob on the pressure regulator. Generally, "+"means boosting, "-"means depressurizing, or you can adjust it to the maximum or minimum. Observe the flame burning of the furnace and slowly adjust it to the appropriate level.

A gas tank pressure regulator is connected between the steel cylinder and the cooker, which can not only change the high-pressure liquefied petroleum gas in the bottle into low-pressure liquefied petroleum gas (from 980 kPa to 100 kPa), but also stabilize the low-pressure gas in a pressure range suitable for safe combustion of the cooker.

That is to say, the pressure of the gas output by the voltage regulator at the fire hole of the cooker is about 2940Pa higher than the external atmospheric pressure at any time, so the voltage regulator is actually an automatic voltage stabilizing device.

Maintenance method of gas storage tank regulator

The breathing hole on the upper cover of the gas holder pressure regulator is used to adjust the air volume, so as to ensure that the pressure reducing valve plays the role of reducing pressure and stabilizing pressure and will not be blocked. If it is found that the breathing hole is blocked, fine iron wire can be used to pierce it carefully, but the rubber film in the pressure reducing valve should be prevented from being punctured or damaged.

If the position of the gas cylinder does not meet the requirements, gas may flow into the pressure reducing valve, causing the rubber sealing ring to dissolve and expand, making the air inlet gap smaller or blocked, affecting normal use. In addition, the rubber sealing ring is a wearing part. After long-term use, it will be pitted by gas corrosion, leading to air leakage. So check it regularly.
