Propane regulator on the slave side

My propane regulator on the secondary side started leaking and I want to replace but cannot find any specs for the regulator I believe it is a 30 psi regulator which flows across to the main regulator but would like to be sure. This is not specified in any of repair or data manuals

Probably a Fairview GR-630B
Here's one on eBay...
Fairview RV Regulator

Here's the Marshall version...
Marshall RV Regulator MEGR-630B-A

Thanks I have the Marshall MEGR 130-30 which as near as I can tell superseded the 630B.

I've had to replace mine twice now. Both lasting only one year. What could be causing these regulators to fail so often?

I'm seriously thinking of eliminating it when and if the last one I installed fails.

Like everything else, they are made cheap. A fairly new (8 years or so) safety requirement for crossover lines exceeding so many feet. I got rid of mine years ago. Also got rid of the check valve fittings in the pigtails from tank to regulator that constantly fail. Replaced with straight through fittings. Been happy and problem free ever since.

Mine did the same thing this summer purchased two of them so I can have an extra one, installed it with the yellow propane tape all is well. Its a simple remove & replace= do it your selfer.

Thanks for reminding me about those pesky check valves. I will also get rid of those check valves as I've had problems with those also.
