Steel Specification & Material Control
The cylinder body uses high-grade carbon steel specifically engineered for LPG pressure-containing applications. Comprehensive material control includes:
Steel grade verification
Precise thickness measurement
Surface condition inspection
Chemical composition and mechanical properties review
Material certificate review
Heat or batch traceability where required
The selected steel specification corresponds directly to the applicable cylinder standard and forming process.
Valve Specification & Configuration
Valve configurations are customized based on destination market regulations and customer requirements. Available parameters include:
Valve type and connection thread
Inlet and outlet configurations
Sealing arrangement and valve material
Installation method
Customers can specify an existing valve standard, provide a valve sample, or submit a technical drawing for compatibility review.
Wall Thickness, Working & Test Pressure
Wall Thickness
Determined by cylinder design, material properties, working pressure, and applicable manufacturing standards. Thickness control is monitored closely during production. Minimum wall thickness is strictly derived from the governing cylinder standard.
Working & Test Pressure
Specified according to the applicable standard and approved product design. These values vary by model, and technical documentation explicitly aligns pressure parameters with target market standards prior to confirmation.
Manufacturing Tolerances & Surface Treatment
Dimensional tolerances are strictly controlled based on approved drawings and standards, evaluating cylinder diameter, overall height, neck and valve positioning, foot ring alignment, and wall thickness.
Surface Treatment Process
Surface Preparation -> Coating -> Curing -> Final Inspection
• Finishes: High-durability paint or powder coating.
• Customization: RAL color matching, specific coating types, surface finish levels, custom logos, product markings, and specialized labeling.
• Quality Check: Inspected thoroughly for coverage, adhesion, visible defects, and exposed metal.
Cylinder Components
Depending on the model, assemblies may include:
Cylinder body, valve, and neck ring.
Foot ring, carry handle, and valve guard.
Specialized protective components.
Testing, Inspection & Third-Party Certification
Rigorous testing guarantees absolute safety and compliance. Typical inspections include:
|
