Unfortunately, even within Europe, the connections for LPG cylinders are not always the same. This makes it more difficult for campers to ensure a permanent supply of LPG when travelling with a caravan and motor caravan, but it isn’t impossible.<\/p>\n

An adapter for filling a German gas cylinder with propane and\/or butane abroad is the solution. In the so-called Euro filling set D, you will find four filling adapters, specifically for the European area<\/strong>. This allows you to have your gas cylinder with a German connection filled from authorised filling points in the following countries, for example:<\/p>\n

\"Euro-F\u00fcll-Set<\/a><\/p>\n

A complete list of countries in which you can fill gas cylinders with Euro filling set D can be found in the product description on the GOK website<\/a>. There, you can also select individual filling adapters from the set. All four filling adapters of the set fit on German gas cylinders with a filling weight of 5 or 11 kilograms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

However, it should also be mentioned that it is not so easy to have all cylinders filled, even if you have the appropriate filling adapter. The online portal caravaning.de<\/em> has an interesting article on the subject: Well supplied with camping gas on holiday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Important note<\/h2>\n

The filling adapters of the Euro filling set D fit on 5 and 11-kilogram gas cylinders.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a9 by-Studio \/ Fotolia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Please note that you must not fill normal 5 or 11-kilogram gas cylinders at autogas filling stations using the fuel nozzle. This is strictly prohibited<\/strong>. You should also look for an authorised filling point abroad. Due to increased demand, the German LPG Association (DVFG) published specialist information which is worth a read: “Filling gas cylinders\/tank cylinders at public filling stations”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can also fill an LPG cylinder with a German connection abroad if you have GOK adapters. These are particularly helpful for caravan and motor caravan owners travelling in Europe for longer periods. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":12531,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[397],"tags":[283],"ausgabe":[],"class_list":["post-9845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-safety","tag-caravan"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9845"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9845\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14506,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9845\/revisions\/14506"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12531"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9845"},{"taxonomy":"ausgabe","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ausgabe?post=9845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
