Notes:
- Maximum undiluted propane capacities listed are based on a gauge pressure
of 10 psi first stage setting and 1 psi pressure drop. Capacities in 1000 Btu/hr.
- To convert capacities at a gauge pressure of 5 psi with 10 percent
(0.5-psi) pressure drop, multiply values by 0.606. To convert to capacities at a gauge
pressure of 15 psi with 10 percent (1.5 psi) pressure drop, multiply values by 1.380.
