The switchover regulator wants to see high inlet pressures. So when one tank goes empty and the inlet pressure drops it will throw the red indicator then you rotate the switchover to the full tank and that turns your flag to green and allows you to disconnect the empty tank to get refilled without interrupting service. The 30Psi regulator only is lowering the line supply pressure to the switchover regulator for safety reasons. The switchover regulator is the only one that monitors the appliance supply pressure.

I was in the LPG service industry for 18 years. If you can get your hands on either Rego or Sherwood regulators that would solve all the problems with quality issues. We had some of these regulators in service for over 50 years without issues.
