Why the acetylene cylinder must be kept upright?

1.When the acetylene cylinder which contains filler and solvent (acetone) and lays on the floor for usage, the acetone is easily flow out with acetylene gas, this would increase the consumption volume of acetone and reduce the burning temperature, and in any case backfire occurs it might cause explosion of acetylene cylinder.

2.When the acetylene cylinder is laid on the floor, it is easy to roll, and when it hits another cylinder or something, the collision might cause accident.

3.The acetylene cylinder equips with anti-vibration ring, the purpose is to avoid collision of cylinders during unloading, transportation and usage, the ring is made of rubber and it is electrical insulator, when the cylinder is laid on the floor it is same as laying on insulator, the static generated on the cylinder can not spread to ground and produce static sparks. And when acetylene gas leaks, it would be easily cause combustion and explosion accidents.

4.When in use, the acetylene cylinder equips with regulator and fire arrestor connected with a hose, and if the cylinder is laid on the floor, it might break the regulator easily or pull the arrestor off the hose, and that will cause acetylene leakage, or even combustion and explosion, based on the reasons above, the acetylene cylinder must be placed upright.

Why excess pressure must be reserved in the acetylene cylinder?

As the explosion limit of acetylene is quite low, even a little air mixed in might create explosion, so there must be an regulator to release pressure and prevent the air from mixing into the cylinder, in order to reduce the risk of explosion of next time. And with the regulator, it calls for excess gas inside the acetylene cylinder, gas cylinders and hydrogen cylinders. It is the same reason

Non-safe management of storage

Do not lay the acetylene cylinder on the floor.

The acetylene cylinder doesn’t equip with backfire preventer.

Solution of cylinder safe storage

Safe storage one/two/three/four cylinder

Ventilation inside the cabinet          Flip board at the bottom

The ZOYET cylinder storage cabinet equips with ventilation system and alarm system, you can link them on with on simple connection, within 5 seconds of alarming the ventilation would be started and reduce the density of flammable gas to the pre-set value of the chip.

Auto alarming system                    Anti-explosive gas detector

The ZOYET gas cylinder storage cabinet is double layer structure and equips with delicate gas detector, the sampling is taken by air diffusion and when density reaches the pre-set value, the alarm will start automatically.
