LPG has now become a common name in every household. Whenever you are booking a new gas cylinder connection ,you will be given certain instructions regarding the safety protocols needed to be followed while handling the gas cylinders. By following the safety protocols given by the gas agency, you can avoid LPG cylinder accidents considerably. Also in case of emergencies do not hesitate to call your chosen gas agency so that they can send their trained personnel’s to solve the problem. It is common to find small water droplets on the surface of our gas cylinders. This phenomenon is known as cylinder sweating where tiny droplets of water are formed on the surface of the cylinders.
WHY DO WE SEE SWEAT ON THE SURFACE OF A CYLINDER?
The storage of liquid petroleum gas or LPG cylinders is done in a liquid state. Due to the natural vaporization formula of the LPG cylinders, during the VOT installation the liquid inside the cylinder evaporates naturally. Mostly in small installations the rate at the liquid vaporizes is low, but in installations where there is a high rate of consumption (such as in restaurants, hotels & etc) the rate of conversion is much higher than the rate of natural evaporation. In such a scenario the LPG cylinder draws heat from its surrounding environment which leads to a drop in the temperature. Hence, we experience the phenomena of cylinder sweating.
WHAT SHOULD WE DO IF WE EXPERIENCE CYLINDER SWEATING?
- The design of the place where the cylinder is being used should be changed keeping in mind all the requirements.
- Understanding the pattern at which the LPG is being consumed is important, as it will determine the requirements of the location.
- An increase in the air circulation where the cooking gas cylinder is being used may be helpful in fixing the problem.
- Make sure the place where the cylinder is stored has proper ventilation.
- Increasing the number of cooking gas cylinders in the manifold and using them in an intermittent manner may prove helpful to avoid the situation of cylinder sweating.
