Notice I said 'SHOW RED' not TURN RED.......indicating in service cylinder is empty
As for those 'excess flow devices'....those are there in the event a downstream hose should rupture, get ripped/torn, broken off etc. in the event of an accident.
The spring loaded shutoff valve in the OPD Service valve is so NO propane can flow out of a cylinder IF there is NOT a pigtail hose connected and the OPD Service valve is opened.
