Liquefied petroleum gas cylinders are used more often in our daily lives. Generally, families and restaurants use them more. The liquefied petroleum gas cylinders used in restaurants are generally relatively large, while those used in households are relatively small. So how should the tare weight of the LPG cylinder be calculated? Now we will explain it.

　　1. As a general rule, the standard weight of each liquefied gas cylinder is 14.5 kg (up and down ±0.5 kg).

　　2, the filling amount is (14.5±0.5)kg, that is, the total volume of the cylinder after inflation is (30.5±0.5)kg.

　　3. The pressure of liquefied gas at 20 degrees Celsius is 0.8 MPa, and the pressure at 40 degrees Celsius can reach 1.59 MPa. If the volume of liquefied gas remains unchanged, the pressure will increase by 0.04 MPa for every 1 degree Celsius increase in temperature, so each cylinder can only be filled with 85%, which is 14.5 kg.

　　4. Both liquefied petroleum gas and coal gas are made artificially. Natural gas is commonly known as natural gas. The daily gas used in liquefied gas tanks is mainly liquefied petroleum gas and natural gas. It should be noted that the gas in the so-called "gas tank" is not coal gas, but liquefied petroleum gas.

　　5. The main components of liquefied petroleum gas are propane and butane, which is a new type of fuel. The use of liquefied gas has the advantages of less pollution, high heat generation, easy transportation, simple storage, etc. It has a side effect, that is, if it leaks during use, it will cause great harm to the human body.

　　6. Both liquefied petroleum gas and natural gas are colorless and odorless gas, but due to their flammable and explosive characteristics, for safety reasons, gas supplied to households will be added with a chemical agent that resembles a "smelly" rotten egg. Under outdoor conditions, because methane is lighter than air, once it leaks, methane will quickly dissipate, which helps reduce the risk of explosion to a certain extent.

　　The above introduction is "what is the tare weight of lpg cylinder". For the tare weight of the LPG cylinder, it depends on the place of use. The size of the cylinder will be different accordingly. If you have other questions, you can contact us.
