How many gallons of propane can be put in a 500 gallon tank?

As a rule, your propane tank will hold 80% of its designated capacity, therefore, a 500 gallon tank would hold 400 gallons. However, the 80% rule is based on expansion and contraction due to temperature. Propane expands in warmer weather. In cold temperatures you can fill to over 90% capacity (450+ gallons) but you should plan on using a portion of that propane before the weather turns warm or pressure could build as temperatures rise, thereby opening the pressure relief valve and releasing gaseous gold into the atmosphere! The hazard could be worse than the expense. Note: Some tanks are rated in pounds vs gallons. A 100 pound tank would hold just under 25 gallons.

Are forklift propane tanks and BBQ propane tanks interchangeable?

No. Forklift LPG tanks have a dip tube to draw off liquid. Propane engines feed off of propane liquid, and turn them into gasses through an internal engine component. While your traditional propane BBQ grill will feed off of vapors from the propane. Of course if you could change the valves this would be somewhat fixed, though you will be hard pressed to find a propane dealer to fill it. But the correct safety equipment would be in place to fill it (i.e. Fixed Liquid Level gauge). Replacing the valve and keeping the cylinder the upright position would allow you to use it, but by then it is basically going to cost you more than it's worth.

How much does a full 10 lb propane tank weigh?

Liquid PropaneThere will be a TW on the side of the cylinder this is the tare weight the weight of the cylinder empty. (TW 18.5) would be an 18.5 pound empty cylinder. A full cylinder will weigh 20 pounds more than the tare weight. Even with an OPD valve a 20 pound cylinder will still hold 20 pounds 95% of the time. If you exchange your tank they are only putting 15-18 pounds of propane in a cylinder that was designed to hold 20 pounds. If you have your cylinder refilled make sure they weigh it on a scale as they fill it and put twenty pounds in it the OPD SHOULD STOP THE PUMP AT THE SAME TIME THE SCALE TIPS.(The weight of th filling valve must be added usually 4-5 pounds). Also propane is stored in the tank as a liquid you use the vapor from the top of tank in your grill. As the vapor pressure lowers the liquid will boil into vapor when the vapor pressure is gone the cylinder is completely empty.A 20-pound tank contains about 4.1 gallons of LP, which weighs about 17 pounds. (LP has a specific gravity -- at 25 degrees C -- about half that of water.) The next time I run my tank empty, I'll weigh it. But I would be willing to bet it weighs about four pounds.
