Can you explain that?
The regulator and hose in proportion to its length create restrictions. So if you've got a low pressure storage tank then you eliminate the regulator's restrictions and if you place it close to the valve as possible and the valve as close as possible to the cylinder you minimize the restriction caused by the hose.
