Plumbing on 1550 HLT?

Tue Sep 02, 2008 5:03 pm

I was listening to the Upgrades Podcast and Chris Graham mentioned that the HLT on the SMART Digital system was running on low pressure propane but implied the other burners were high pressure. I know why they did that but I was wondering, how is it plumbed to work like that?

The high pressure regulator is connected to your source and the low pressure regulator is than T off of that line going to the low pressure burner

I did something similar on my stand, but the low pressure regulator is hard plumbed inline before the Honeywell valve.

A high pressure regulator comes off the propane tank. That then goes into the frame, like the Brutus gas beam. A fitting on the gas beam then goes into the low pressure line shown in the picture (gas ball valve > low pressure regulator > Honeywell unit > burner).

I've got other pictures. If you'd like to see them, let me know.
