Reliable propane connection with safety features and thermal protection.
The Marshall Excelsior Propane Hose Connector is engineered for secure and efficient propane transfer. Featuring a 1-5/16 inch female ACME connection and a 1/4 inch MNPT, this connector is designed to handle up to 400000 BTU and 200 SCFH of air. The built-in excess flow feature ensures that gas will not flow until the connector is fully engaged, enhancing safety during use.
In the event of a fire, the connector's thermal protection mechanism activates, melting to disengage the nipple from the tank and halting propane flow. This critical safety feature is complemented by a positive back check seal that prevents propane from escaping into the atmosphere during disconnection. The Type I (QCC) thread is compatible with 40-pound or less DOT propane cylinders, making it a versatile choice for various applications.
Installation is straightforward; simply close the cylinder valve and appliance control valves, hand tighten the connector, and slowly open the cylinder valve. This method prevents the excess flow device from activating, ensuring a smooth operation. The durable brass construction and vibrant red color enhance visibility and reliability, making this connector a practical addition to any propane setup.
