Issues regarding the installation of level gauges on liquefied gas cylinders

2016-07-27View Original

Thread Content

Help: Are there any relevant standard requirements regarding the connection of the level gauge on liquefied gas cylinders – should it be done via flange connection or welding? Is it mandatory?

The level gauge should be connected by flanges. Easy to maintain.

LPG cylinders are classified as category III pressure vessels; welding directly to the cylinder body is certainly not appropriate. Ordinary level gauges are connected via flanges, and an additional flange is required as well. Radar level gauges are also used in combination at present.
