GB/T 51094-2015 Technical Specifications for Wet Gas Cylinders in Industrial Enterprises; HG/T 20517-1992 Steel Low-Pressure Wet Gas Cylinders. What is the relationship between these two current standards for gas cylinders? If designing a gas holder, which standard should be used?
Both standards are valid; it depends on the industry you are in – GB is suitable for the industrial sector, while HG is appropriate for the petroleum and chemical industries.
“Don’t “oil and chemicals” fall under the category of “industry”? Are there any differences (or conflicts) between these two standards?
GB has a wide range of applications, including the petroleum and chemical industries.
The national standard dates back to 2015, and it should be adopted. The industry standard time in the chemical sector is too long and no longer suitable
The GB standard should be chosen first.
According to the criteria listed by the original poster, the former is the current standard.
Another standard related to wet gas cylinders is the \"Code for Construction and Acceptance of Wet Gas Cylinders with Metal Welded Structures\" (HG/T 20212-2017). The scope of application for both GB/T 51094-2015 and HG/T 20212-2017 specifies that \"these specifications do not apply to the storage of gases with high or extremely hazardous toxicity\"” ; However, HG/T 20517-1992 does not specify the toxicity level of the stored materials. Furthermore, the volume range of gas tanks for which the specifications apply also varies.
More specifically in the chemical industry: HG should be used in chemical plants, while GB should be used in ordinary factories
