What is the required working pressure of fittings used with liquid LP Gas at operating pressures over 125 PSIG?

The required working pressure of fittings used with liquid LP Gas at operating pressures over 125 PSIG is 250 PSIG. This specification is crucial to ensure safety and reliability in the operation of LP Gas systems.

Fittings must be able to withstand pressures significantly higher than the maximum operating pressure to prevent leaks and potential failures. A working pressure rating of 250 PSIG provides a necessary margin above the 125 PSIG operating pressure, allowing for fluctuations and surges that may occur in the system. This adherence to the required working pressure also ensures compliance with safety codes and regulations, which are designed to protect users and the environment.

Understanding this specification is vital for anyone involved in the handling and distribution of LP Gas, as improper fittings not rated for the appropriate pressures can lead to hazardous situations.
