OVERFILL PROTECTION DEVICE (OPD) ON 20 LB. PROPANE CYLINDER

Attention: Consumer be advised, this gas grill must be connected to an LP gas cylinder incorporating an OPD.

The OPD will help reduce the potential for the overfilling of the propane cylinder, thus reducing the possibility of hydrostatic relief valve dis- charges.

Overfill Protection Device Valve Function

1.As the cylinder is filled, the rising level of liquid propane lifts the float to the stop position to prevent dangerous overfilling.

Does not affect the filling process or use of the cylinder.

2.At a safe filling level, the float cam triggers the pin to fall into the recess of the cam, sealing this path off and preventing any more liquid propane from flowing through the lower valve body into the cylinder.

3.The propane builds up pressure in the chamber (center spring) and pushes the piston up to form a seal, effectively stopping the filling process.

4.The use of the propane from the cylinder allows the OPD to reset itself for the next fill.

5.Connects to all standard or quick-connect couplings.

6.The Overfill Protection Device affects incoming liquid propane flow only. Does not affect normal propane gas discharge when properly connected to the appliance regulator.

7.All propane cylinders should be filled by qualified professionals only.

Purging

1.Due to the decreased Btu delivery, purging may take longer.

2.To increase the speed of purging, open the outage valve during release.

3.Reminder: Each new cylinder must be purged before filling.

4.For purging instructions, refer to NPGA 133-89(a).

Btu Delivery

The OPD valve has a size 56 orifice through which the propane is released for consumption. Depending on the propane's temperature and pressure, the release from the cylinder is approximately 125,000 Btu/ hour.
