cornwall Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Hello everybody. I have a 8 year old Rapido 709F I bought new in France. It is fitted with a CAVAGNA automatic gas change over regulator fixed to the bulkhead, with 2 PRIMAGAZ 13 kg propane bottles, they are dark green. We visit France 4 times a year so it is easy to get a new bottle when necessary. However this year we could not go so I have run out of Gas. My question is can I purchase a pigtail that will fit the CAVAGNA regulator and a calor gas 13kg propane bottle, if so where? & what part number? I would appreciate any help.
Brian Kirby Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 If you look at Gaslow, here - http://tinyurl.com/3d7ugnr - you should find what you want.
Derek Uzzell Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Any leisure-vehicle 'pigtail' with a UK-standard gas-bottle end-connection (referred to as a POL end-connection) will be suitable. These should be obtainable from most UK motorhome/caravan accessory outlets. (The M20 threaded connection used on your regulator's inlet is standardised and not country-specific.) An example is shown here: http://www.caravanaccessoryshop.co.uk/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=1140 An alternative would be to use Gaslow Part No 01-1674 (see Brian's link) referred to as "21.8 LH Easy-Fit Connects to UK Propane". This would convert your current French-standard pigtail so that it could connect to a standard Calor 13kg propane bottle.
