Anyone know the pressure range to be expected in a low pressure gas

what are the limits?

I know on the consumer side of the meter it should be 20-22 mBar on
full load but would be interested to know how much range the govenor
has to work on.

ISTR that in the days before new-fangled units like millibars were invented
duck, it came in at 20" H2O, and was governed down to 8". So, in round
figures, the input pressure was 50 mB.
