Purpose of the regulator

Customer (PF13CS160)

I had a quick question regarding the regulator for the Powerflamer 160 I bought in March 2022. I see that the regulator model, painted red, is “XXXX XD01” but cannot find much information online with respect to what the PSIG is limited to. Do you have this information? 

As a curiosity, if I get a longer hose without a regulator (and control the 20lb tank’s pressure using the tank valve), would that work in theory? Is the regulator here only used for fine flame control?

Outdoorstirfry: 

The regulator output is XXX PSI.   The stove needs a constant gas pressure to operate.  If you get a longer hose, please connect after the regulator.  The tank pressure can vary widely from 50PSI to 350PSI.   This will put the stove and people around to danger.  Please do not operate the stove without the regulator.

I ordered a high pressure regulator last month and I’ve been having problems with it.

Customer (High Pressure Regulator): 

I ordered a high pressure regulator last month and I’ve been having problems with it.  The gas comes out slowly and I’m not able to get the high power flame.  Can you provide a solution?  Thank you.

Outdoorstirfry: 

Can you watch video #1 on page https://outdoorstirfry.com/?page_id=768.   The regulator needs to give two clicking sounds after you turn on the tank valve.   These two sounds can sometime space out as long as 1 minute.   Please don’t turn on any thing before the 2nd clicking sound as the regulator is checking for leak.   When leak is detected, the regulator refuses to give full pressure.   Let us know any further question.
