L'invention concerne un collecteur-distributeur de gaz combustible alimenté par plusieurs cartouches de gaz liquéfié, ce collecteur-distributeur permettant un fonctionnement analogue à celui d’une bouteille rechargeable, tout en assurant la continuité du service, la sécurité d’utilisation et la facilité de remplacement des cartouches lorsqu'elles sont vides, leur fourniture étant particulièrement commode, les opérations pouvant être réalisées directement par l'utilisateur sans recours à un centre de service. [...] L'ensemble collecteur-distributeur peut être muni d’un régulateur détendeur de type classique, ayant un adaptateur de sortie destiné au raccordement à un appareil de consommation, par exemple un appareil de cuisson domestique. 1, record 1, French, - collecteur%2Ddistributeur

LP Gas Furnaces.... The technical data for these two furnaces [natural gas furnace and liquefied petroleum gas furnace] are identical except for the gas controls and the burner and pilot orifice sizes. For LP gas, the orifice sizes are much smaller because the gas has a higher density and is supplied at a higher manifold pressure. 1, record 2, English, - liquefied%20petroleum%20gas%20furnace

Les gaz de pétrole liquéfié regroupent, entre autres, le propane et le butane. Les États-Unis, la France et le Canada utilisent surtout le propane comme combustible gazeux pour les générateurs d’air chaud. Le «butane» semble être surtout employé dans le sud des États-Unis.
