DESCRIPTION
The ZVG 2 EURO UL nozzle is designed for the LPGas vehicle refueling. Unlike the previously used LPGas nozzles with screw-on connectors, it is equipped with a 'EURO' coupling and optionally with an orange safe latching mechanism to increase user comfort as
per UL 125. It incorporates ease of use, operating safety and low gas release volume upon
uncoupling. The nozzle is designed to only allow gas to flow when it is correctly coupled.
APPROVALS / OPERATING CONDITIONS
ZVG 2 EURO UL is listed by Underwriters Laboratories for use with LPGas (Liquefied Petroleum Gas like propane, butane and their mixtures). It also meets the requirements of EN 13760,
UN R67 and ISO 19825.
Flowrate up to 50 litres/min. Rated service pressure 363 psi (25 bar), operation tempera ture range
-40° F (-40° C) to 131° F (70° C). Test pressure 544 psi (37.5 bar), burst pressure in excess of 1450
psi (100 bar). Each nozzle is factory tested before being labelled with the prescribed marking,
production date and unique serial number.
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT LPG / WARNINGS
• LPGas is liquefied under pressure when transported and stored. It is heavier than air.
Commercial LPGas is odourised before distribution to enable detection by its sulfurous smell.
It appears as white fog or cloud when exposed to the atmosphere. It has an evaporation factor
of 1/260: one liter of liquefied gas corresponds to 260 liters of inflammable gas.
A small gas release upon uncoupling is normal – but uncontrolled gas release to
the atmosphere must be avoided. If you suspect a leakage: stop refueling, use the
emergency button to shut o the dispenser, immediately evacuate the area and
inform station personnel.
• LPGas is extremely flammable, which is capable of igniting at concen tra tions between 2 and
10 % in air.
Open fires, smoking, sources of static electricity and the use of mobile phones
or other electric devices is prohibited in the area of gas transfer. Turn o vehicle
engine before refueling.

• LPGas is extremely cold when released to the air (depressurized).
Local laws and code of practice regarding LPGas handling as well as instructions of vehicle,
dispenser and authorized personnel must be followed. Please also refer to the safety codes
NFPA 54 + 58 and NPGA 306.
INSTALLATION
The ZVG 2 EURO UL is delivered ready for use.
Nozzles should only be installed and tested by competent personnel. Applicable laws, regulations
and Codes of Practice have to be followed.
Do not use PTFE sealing tape for sealing threaded connections, as electrical conductivity may be
insucient and particles of the tape commonly become loose and could clog the nozzle strainer
or damage vehicle motor parts. Use suitable liquid seal (non permanent) instead.
Do n o t use PTFE tape Use liquid seal (non permanent)
After connecting to the hose assembly, an operational test shall be performed. It is essential to
examine that the nozzle, hose connector and swivel are tight under pressure and do not leak –
e. g. by external application of foaming agents.
Assemble with spanners Check tightness
