Located inside your propane locker, this solenoid valve functions as a safety and control device, allowing you to use an electric switch in your galley to shut off the flow of propane. It can be installed on either side of a regulator, depending on whether the fuel is propane (before) or CNG (after).
The kit includes a 3/8" male flare x 1/4" female NPT brass fitting (PF-5446) for the outlet side, for use when attaching a supply line hose with a common 3/8" female flare fitting going to your appliance.

A. LPG Installation The electrical solenoid valve should be mounted on the tank side of the LPG regulator, as close to the tank as practical. The tank itself should be mounted outside the cabin or crew quarters to avoid the possibility of gas accumulation due to a leak between the tank and solenoid valve.
B. CNG Installation Because of the higher tank pressure of CNG , the valve must be installed after the CNG regulator and as close to the regulator as possible. The tank itself should be mounted outside the cabin or crew quarters to avoid the possibility of gas accumulation due to a leak.
