Bergquist 998lp-32 Propane Regulator 2nd Stage 1400000 Btu/h

Product Description

The BERGQUIST 998lp-32 is a second-stage propane pressure regulator designed to reduce intermediate line pressure to a usable appliance delivery pressure in LP gas distribution systems. Rated at 1,400,000 BTU/h, this regulator handles high-demand commercial and residential propane supply applications. It features 3/4-inch female pipe thread (FPT) inlets and outlets on both ends and uses a straight-mount configuration. Installation is handled by licensed gas fitters or plumbers working on LP systems requiring a dedicated second-stage regulation point.

Second-stage regulators like the 998lp-32 are used downstream of a first-stage regulator in a two-stage LP gas distribution system. This configuration is common in high-BTU commercial cooking, large residential heating setups, and multi-appliance propane systems where a single-stage regulator cannot maintain adequate pressure stability across the full load range. The 3/4-inch FPT connections make it compatible with standard iron pipe propane distribution lines.

Key Features

• 1,400,000 BTU/h capacity for high-demand LP gas systems
• 3/4-inch FPT inlet and 3/4-inch FPT outlet for standard iron pipe connections
• Second-stage regulation provides stable delivery pressure downstream of a first-stage regulator
• Straight-mount configuration for direct inline installation

Compatibility

Designed as a second-stage LP propane regulator for use in two-stage propane distribution systems with 3/4-inch FPT pipe connections and system demand up to 1,400,000 BTU/h.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed gas fitter or plumber in accordance with NFPA 54 and applicable local LP gas codes. Shut off the propane supply at the tank or first-stage regulator before beginning work. All connections must be leak-tested with an approved gas leak detection solution after installation. Do not over-torque pipe fittings on the regulator body.
