LPG cylinder's expiry date !!!

Dear All . . . 

Have U ever heard about LPG gas cylinder's expire date???  I also didn't know.


How to find LPG cylinder's expiry date ????

Very important information.

Most of us do not know this. We came to know today from the gas stockiest, 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. D06.

 The alphabets stand for quarters -
A for March (First Qtr),
B for June (Second Qtr),
C for Sept (Third Qtr), &
D for December (FourthQtr).
The digits stand for the year till it is valid.
Hence D06 would mean December qtr of 2006.

 

The second example with D13 allows the cylinder to be in use until DEC - 2013

Please Return Back the Cylinder that you get with a EXPIRY DATE, They are PRONE to LEAK & other HAZARDOUS ACCIDENTS.
