Gas cylinders (Freelander 2)

Gases such as oxygen, acetylene, argon and propane are usually stored in cylinders under pressure of up to 138 bar (13800 kPa). Therefore, when handling them, special care must be taken to avoid mechanical damage to both the cylinders themselves and the fittings connected to them (valves, reducers, etc.). The contents of each cylinder must be clearly identified by the appropriate marking.

Cylinders should be stored in well-ventilated areas. They should be protected from ice and snow and should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Flammable gases (such as acetylene and propane) should not be stored in close proximity to oxygen cylinders.

To avoid leaks from gas cylinders and mains, you should be very careful and attentive when handling them. Do not allow sources of ignition near them.

Only trained personnel should be allowed to work with gas cylinders.
