Why do the small pipes coming out of the chlorine gas cylinder get clogged easily? What method can be used to solve it?
What is the water content in liquid chlorine? Also, is the liquid chlorine production process based on low pressure or medium pressure?
If it is a metal pipe, the main reason is absorption of water and corrosion. A hard tube made of PTFE can be used, with the pipe ends sealed off with plugs when not in use.
There is moisture in the pipes, which forms chlorides; ours also gets clogged every time it’s used

After the gas cylinder is used up, it is purged with nitrogen; a certain pressure of nitrogen is filled inside the cylinder. The cylinder is then secured, its valve is opened, and the inlet and outlet valves of the sampling device are closed, so that nitrogen fills the sampling system to provide protection
The issue with controlling the moisture content in chlorine gas is caused by improper cylinder inspection procedures; checks should be carried out in these two areas.
