What it is — Basic Info & Purpose
-
The Cornell CLPG-1001H is a “low-pressure” LPG gas regulator — used to regulate the pressure of gas coming from a gas cylinder (LPG tank) before it reaches a gas stove or hob.
-
As with typical LPG regulators, its job is to reduce and stabilize the high tank pressure to a safe, usable pressure suitable for home cookers.
-
Using a proper regulator is critical for safe and efficient operation of any LPG-based cooktop / stove setup.
Typical / Expected Spec (What a Low-Pressure Regulator Should Do)
Based on similar LPG regulators in Malaysia (since public spec sheet for CLPG-1001H is limited), typical values you should check:
-
Outlet (working) pressure for LPG cookers: ~ 28 mbar (millibar).
-
Maximum inlet pressure (from the cylinder) handled by low-pressure regulators: up to ~ 6 bar.
-
Compatibility: Should match standard LPG cylinder connection type used in Malaysia (check thread type / inlet design when buying).
The responsibility of the regulator is to ensure that the stove receives gas at consistent, safe pressure, preventing over-pressure that could cause safety hazards.
What It’s Good For / When to Use It
-
Standard LPG home stoves/hobs: If you have a typical 2-burner or multi-burner LPG stove, this regulator is the “bridge” between your LPG cylinder and stove — essential for safe operation.
-
Replacing an old or worn/outdated regulator: Regulators should be replaced periodically to ensure safety (seals, diaphragm integrity, leak-free operation).
-
Ensuring stable flame & efficient cooking: With correct regulation, burners flame should be stable and predictable (less flickering or low flame).
-
General kitchen safety: Prevents over-pressure or fluctuations — reduces risk of gas leaks, unsafe flame, or damage to appliance.
