7.3 Cylinder Indentifications

Your safety is critical when working with high pressure, which is why the specifications of each cylinder are carved into its neck for lifelong traceability. With this the user is able to identify the producer and owner of every gas cylinder, its manufacturing specifications and the unique cylinder serial number. The stamped marks also indicate the cylinder specifications such as; water capacity, weight, test pressure and maximum filling pressure. The date on the back shows the latest cylinder test date.
