LP Quick Connect

Can someone explain what the pressure is on the LP quick connect on my Keystone Bullet? Is it the same as connecting directly to the 20# LP tank?

No it would be the same as the gas pressure that goes to your stove. Not sure of the exact pressure#.

The pressure from your 20# tank is unregulated when you hook to the outlet. It requires a regulator. If you hook to the quick connect on the trailer it is already behind the regulator for the tanks so you don't need a regulator for the appliance. That is why those appliances that come with "regulators" as part of the appliance require a different hose that eliminates the regulator so they can connect to the quick connect. If that makes sense

It’s measured in inches of water column, using a gauge called a manometer. Ideal pressure is between 10 and 11inches...about .5 PSI

The pressure coming out of the cylinder can be as high as 250 PSI.
