The expiry date of an LPG cylinder is usually indicated on the cylinder itself, near the neck. Look for a stamp that includes the expiration month and year. If you can't find it or if it's unclear, contact the gas distributor or supplier for assistance. Remember, it's important to always check the expiry date for safety reasons.
Do you know that there is an expiry date (physical life) for LPG cylinders? Expired Cylinders are not safe for use and may cause accidents. In this regard, please be cautious at the time of accepting any LPG cylinder from the vendor.Here is how we can check the expiry of LPG cylinders:On one of three side stems of the cylinder, the expiry date is coded alpha numerically as follows A or B or C or D and some two digit number following this e.g. c 09.The alphabets stand for quarters -1. A for March (First Qtr),2. B for June (Second Qtr),3. C for Sept (Third Qtr),4. D for December (Fourth Qtr).The digits stand for the year till it is valid. Hence c 09 would mean september qtr of 2009.
It all depends on the size of the cylinder.
The number of oxygen cylinders consumed in one LPG cylinder for cutting the job depends on factors such as the size of the LPG cylinder, the cutting process used, and the cutting duration. Typically, a rough estimate is around 1 to 2 oxygen cylinders for every LPG cylinder used for cutting. It is best to consult with a professional or refer to specific guidelines for accurate consumption rates.
When LPG comes out of the cylinder, it changes from a liquid to a gas due to the decrease in pressure. This phase change causes it to expand rapidly and cool down, which is why LPG feels cold when released. The gas is then ready to be ignited and used as a fuel for various applications.
Yes, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) is stored in liquid form under pressure in a gas cylinder. This allows for a larger volume of gas to be stored in a smaller space, making it easier for transportation and use.

Do not completely fill the cylinder. Always check the hoses and fittings.

Pressure in an LPG cylinder is dependant of the ambient temperature and the LPG mix considered. For 70% Propane and 30% Butane at 20 degrees Celsius the pressure is 102 PSI (lb/sq.in.) or 703 KPa. Please be aware that the pressure inside an LPG vessel will not drop as vapour LPG is being used. LPG cylinder is not to be understood and dealt with as a pressurised gas storage cylinder that will drop in pressure if gas is being taken out of the cylinder. LPG cylinder contains both liquid and vapour, as vapour is being used at an appliance the liquid vaporises under natural conditions and generates more vapour, hence the efficiency of the LPG storage systems.
The weight of an empty LPG gas cylinder typically ranges from 15 to 35 kilograms, depending on the size and capacity of the cylinder.

The pressure in a 50kg LPG gas cylinder can vary, but typically it ranges from 2.0 to 2.3 MPa (megapascals) at 15°C.
The filling pressure in an LPG cylinder refers to the amount of pressure at which the cylinder is filled with liquefied petroleum gas. This pressure can vary depending on factors such as the type of gas being used and the ambient temperature. Typically, the filling pressure for LPG cylinders ranges from 2 to 10 bar.
An LPG cylinder may bulge due to overfilling, exposure to high temperatures causing the gas inside to expand, or physical damage to the cylinder. Bulging can weaken the structural integrity of the cylinder and increase the risk of a leak or rupture, posing a safety hazard. It is important to handle LPG cylinders carefully and store them properly to prevent bulging.
