Le clapet d'arrêt automatique est installé à l'intérieur du réservoir et sert à prévenir le surremplissage en interrompant la distribution du propane dans le réservoir lorsque celui-ci est rempli à 80 pour cent. Ceci permet l'expansion sécuritaire du propane liquide lorsque la température augmente.
