PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Pressure Regulator 1/2" Lp for Pitco Part# PTP5046655
Details
The Pitco Pressure Regulator 1/2" LP is a direct replacement LP gas pressure regulator for Pitco commercial gas fryers with 1/2-inch gas connections. It reduces the incoming LP supply pressure to the precise manifold pressure required by the fryer's burner orifices for correct LP gas combustion and rated heat output. Using the correct LP regulator ensures the proper outlet pressure setting, body size, and connection thread for a safe, code-compliant installation.
Over time, gas pressure regulators can drift from their factory pressure setting due to diaphragm fatigue, spring creep, or contamination of the sensing port with debris or moisture, causing the fryer's manifold pressure to run above or below specification and resulting in incorrect burner performance, poor combustion, or inability to reach setpoint temperature. A malfunctioning LP pressure regulator can also create a safety hazard from excess gas flow. Replacing the regulator with a compatible LP unit restores precise, stable manifold pressure regulation.
The regulator is installed in the gas supply line ahead of the gas valve, with the inlet and outlet arrows aligned to the direction of gas flow. Installation must be performed by a qualified gas service technician who verifies the outlet pressure with a manometer after installation. Pairing regulator replacement with a full leak check at all connections and a burner combustion inspection will ensure the fryer is operating safely at the correct LP gas pressure.
