Handling pressure vessels |
l
| Secure vessels against falling over! |
Secure standing cylinders against falling over and lying cylinders from rolling away. |
l
| Do not throw pressure vessels! |
An impact can cause the container to be so severely deformed that it bursts. The refrigerant evaporates immediately, releasing violent forces. Flying fragments of cylinders can cause severe injuries. |
Bottle valves can brake during improper transport. To protect cylinder valves, bottles may be transported only with protective covers screwed on. |
l
| Do not place bottles near radiators! |
Higher temperatures can develop near heaters. Higher temperatures however also mean higher pressures, which may exceed the rated pressure of the vessel. |
