According to the engineers at Manchester Tank, some of the 20 or 30 lb tank OPD valves used on these tanks have a built in flow limiter and others do not. There is no requirement to have or not to have the flow limiter in it, just some do and some don't. When I first tried to run my coach heating systems on a 20# tank, the heaters would shut down due to the flow limiter. They recommended a tank valve with the legend "ITALY" cast into the valve body. This is way up high on the valve body right under the 3 lobed handle. I found the tanks I needed at LOWES and bought 3. We've been using these for a number of years and haven't had a heater shut down since.
