Can I use LPG to become independent of natural gas (CNG or LNG)?

28. April 2022/in General, LPG Knowledge

April 2022: a war between Russia and Ukraine continues to rage. Some countries have imposed sanctions on Russia, as a result of which natural gas prices have risen sharply once again.

Can I use it to operate my gas stove? Can I use LPG instead of natural gas? Read more

Dry-run protection/product shortage protection is important for AdBlue systems, especially if they require calibration. Then the dry-run protection must also be checkable.

How do I get checkable dry-run protection for AdBlue® systems?

24. March 2022/in Level Control & Safety, Liquid Media & Tank Management

It is every filling station or tank system operator’s nightmare. The tank with AdBlue® is empty, the pump is drawing air and could be damaged and/or lead to false bills. Dry-run protection, also known as product shortage protection, prevents this kind of scenario. Such product shortage protection can be provided with the electronic level gauge SmartBox 2 from GOK, and checked using simple means. Since the beginning of 2022, this has been a prerequisite for calibrating such a tank system! Read more

Gas filters are now almost standard in the LPG systems of motor caravans and caravans. For relatively little money, they offer a lot of protection against contamination in LPG for the sometimes very expensive end devices, such as gas heating, refrigerators or gas-powered barbecues. However: When is the gas filter or filter cartridge “full” and when should it be changed by the operator?

When and how should I change the cartridge in the GOK Caramatic ConnectClean gas filter?

What needs to be considered when installing the remote display after, for example, changing from Truma DuoControl CS/DuoComfort to the GOK Caramatic line?

20. May 2021/in Caravanning & Camping, LPG Leisure Time

Did you use a gas pressure regulation system from the manufacturer Truma in your motor caravan or caravan – for example a silver Truma DuoControl CS or the Truma DuoComfort changeover valve (up to year of manufacture 2018)?

And in these fields of application, the areas of use are once again strongly branched. For example, compression fittings are used in the gas supply in motor caravans and caravans, for LPG systems to operate gas stoves or heating as well as for the pipe connection in fuel oil systems. That’s reason enough to describe the most important facts of this connection type in its own article. Read more
