1.5 Fuel systems  

Appliances can be for connection to  a) a fixed fuel piping system, including a recreational vehicle’s low-pressure liquefied petroleum (LP) gas system; or  b) a self-contained LP gas or propane gas supply system of a single cylinder with a maximum size of 20 lb (9.1 kg) of fuel.  

1.6 Fuel types  

This Standard applies to appliances operating at inlet gas pressures not to exceed 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) for connection to a fixed fuel piping system for use with  a) natural gas;  b) LP gases; and  c) LP gas-air mixtures. 

1.7 Self-contained systems  

This Standard also applies to appliances designed for connection to a self-contained LP gas and propane gas supply systems (see Clause 4.4)  a) operating at regulated outlet pressures not to exceed 1 psi (6.9 kPa); or  b) operating at regulated outlet pressures in excess of 1 psi (6.9 kPa) but not greater than 10 psi (69 kPa).  Notes:  1) The construction of appliances for use with the above-mentioned gases is covered under Clause 4.  2) The performance of appliances for use with the above-mentioned gases is covered under Clause 5.  

1.8 Pressure references  

Throughout this Standard, gauge pressures are designated in pounds per square inch (psi) and kilopascals (kPa). The terminology “psig” is not used. Where “psi” is used, it is understood to be pound per square inch gauge. Absolute pressures are not used in this Standard.  

1.9 Measurement units  

The values given in US customary units are the units of record for the purposes of this Standard. The values given in parentheses are for information and comparison only (see Clause 8).  

1.10 LP gas cylinder label  

Annex A contains the LP gas cylinder label.
