Gas cartridges are used almost everywhere: when camping on a cooker, when barbecuing with gas or with soldering guns. If you don’t want to risk a sudden gas shortage, you have a spare gas cartridge next to the one you have connected. But where do you store them? Outdoors or can the gas cartridges also be stored indoors? And how many can you store at home?
The Senso4s level gauge for gas cylinders is a very accurate monitoring instrument to prevent a gas cylinder suddenly becoming empty. We have summarised in this article what needs to be observed during start-up and during operation.
The Caramatic BasicTwo is designed as a two-cylinder system to supply gas equipment connected in the caravan or motor caravan from two gas cylinders. Nevertheless, the question arises again and again whether this two-cylinder system can also be operated with only one gas cylinder. The short answer is: Yes! But there are certain things you must consider.
Where can I store the gas cylinder? This is a question many users and tradespeople ask themselves when they want to have a full one on site as a reserve or, for example, take the LPG installation out of operation for a short time. The cellar is usually the least troublesome place to store them. But is it even allowed to store it there, let alone operate it?
If you need a lot of LPG and a stable supply for it, you often can’t do without a multiple cylinder system, for example, consisting of four 33 kg cylinders. Even if there are different variations of such a four-cylinder system, the basic structure is always very similar. In this blog article, we will show you and highlight the most important points.
Checking for leaks on small cylinder systems has now become an integral part of DVGW worksheet G 612 and therefore is also of interest to private individuals. In this article, we show you how to do the leak check quickly, simply and virtually while you’re doing something else, thanks to the pressure gauge on the pressure regulator.
The same thing again and again: The gas cylinder is empty, exactly when you absolutely want to get a room to the right temperature using the radiant heater or fire up the gas barbecue for your party guests. Basically, it helps to have a replacement cylinder nearby. However, if you want to be certain about the filling level of your cylinder in use, we will show you two ways of doing it in this article: the conventionally analogue way and digitally with the aid of an app and consumption forecast, which is especially convenient.
The LPG tank is outdoors, the gas equipment is indoors. The piping must pass through a wall in order to connect the tank to the equipment. If everything is to be installed above ground, there is a rather simple, safe and convenient solution: the wall duct (with integrated main shut-off device). This means that you can expect not to have to undertake any risky work yourself.
Gas cylinder empty, filling point already closed, gas barbecue not working, party guests hungry. This or something similar has probably happened to most of us. Some people then have the idea of driving to the nearest petrol station and filling the gas cylinder with liquid petroleum gas (LPG) themselves. But there is a problem!
End of July. The sun is burning down from the sky. The gas cylinder is in the cupboard under the gas barbecue, which is covered with a protective bonnet. Temperatures of around 40 degrees Celsius can easily develop near the LPG cylinder. Is there a danger of explosion? GOK tells you in this blog article.
Information regarding technical systems
This blog will never ask members of the public or unqualified persons to make changes to or fiddle around with technical systems themselves.
In accordance with the Industrial Safety Regulation (BetrSichV), a qualified person must take care of a system which requires monitoring.
A qualified person is someone who has the specific specialist knowledge required. This knowledge is gained by way of a professional apprenticeship, corresponding professional experience or current occupational activity.
