The Cadac LP Butane Clip-On Regulator QR is designed for caravanners and campers who use Calor 4.5kg or 7kg butane cylinders, plus Flogas 5kg, 7kg or 13kg bottles. It operates at 28mbar pressure with a 21mm clip-on inlet, which means you get a secure connection without needing tools or spanners. The factory-fitted 85cm crimped hose comes with quick-release fittings at both ends, so you can disconnect your gas BBQ or camping stove quickly when packing up or moving pitch.

What sets this regulator apart is the built-in Excess Flow Valve, a safety feature that automatically restricts gas flow by 90% if your hose gets damaged or cut. The quick-release connector also stops gas escaping if you disconnect the appliance end while the cylinder valve is still open, which is particularly useful when you're in a rush or dealing with multiple gas appliances at camp. The clip-on mechanism works with standard butane cylinder valves, making cylinder changes straightforward even in poor light or awkward storage lockers.

The 85cm hose length suits most caravan and motorhome installations where the gas locker sits close to external cooking points, though you might need an extension hose if your BBQ point is further away. This regulator only works with butane cylinders at 28mbar output, so it's not compatible with propane bottles or appliances requiring 37mbar pressure. Cadac's crimped hose construction means you can't accidentally overtighten connections, and the bright orange hose makes it easy to spot during safety checks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this Cadac regulator with propane gas cylinders?
No, this regulator is specifically designed for butane cylinders only and operates at 28mbar pressure. Propane cylinders require a different regulator type with 37mbar output pressure and a different connection fitting. Using this butane regulator with propane would be unsafe and would not provide correct gas pressure for your appliances.
What does the Excess Flow Valve actually do on this regulator?
The Excess Flow Valve is an automatic safety mechanism built into the regulator that detects sudden increases in gas flow, such as when a hose is cut or severely damaged. When triggered, it immediately restricts the gas flow by 90%, preventing a dangerous gas leak. This happens automatically without any manual intervention, providing continuous protection while your gas system is in use.
Will the 85cm hose be long enough for my caravan gas BBQ point?
The 85cm hose length works for most standard caravan and motorhome installations where the gas locker is positioned close to external cooking points or BBQ outlets. If your gas locker is further from your cooking area, you may need to add a compatible extension hose. Measure the distance from your gas cylinder location to the appliance connection point before purchasing to confirm the hose will reach comfortably without stretching.
How does the clip-on mechanism work compared to screw-on regulators?
The clip-on mechanism uses a spring-loaded clamp that pushes onto the butane cylinder valve and secures with a simple pressing action, requiring no tools or hand-tightening. This makes cylinder changes faster and easier than traditional screw-on regulators, particularly useful in tight gas lockers or when you have limited hand strength. The 21mm clip-on fitting is the standard size for Calor and Flogas butane cylinders in the UK.
What happens if I disconnect the quick-release fitting while the gas is on?
The quick-release fittings on both ends of the hose automatically shut off gas flow when disconnected, even if the cylinder valve remains open. This safety feature prevents gas escaping into your caravan or camping area during appliance changes or when moving equipment. However, it's still best practice to turn off the cylinder valve before disconnecting any gas fittings to maintain proper safety procedures.
Why is the hose crimped rather than having standard jubilee clip connections?
Factory crimping creates a permanent, tamper-proof seal between the hose and fittings that cannot work loose over time or be incorrectly tightened by users. This manufacturing method eliminates common failure points associated with jubilee clips that can corrode, loosen with vibration during travel, or be over-tightened causing hose damage. Crimped connections meet higher safety standards required for modern gas regulations and provide more reliable long-term performance in caravan and motorhome environments.
