Important information w.r.t. gas cylinders.............


Please communicate this information to your family and friends.

Have U ever heard about LPG gas cylinders' expiry date....!!
Do you know that there is an expiry date (physical life) for 

LPG cylinders? Expired Cylinders are not safe for use and may cause 
accidents. In this regard, please be cautious when accepting 
Any LPG cylinder from the vendor.

Here is how we can check the expiry of LPG cylinders:
On one of the three side stems of the cylinder, the expiry date is coded

 alphabetically as follows: A, B or C, or D, and 


Some two-digit number following this, e.g. D06.

The alphabet stands for quarters -
1. A for March (First Qtr),
2. B for June (Second Qtr),
3. C for Sept (Third Qtr),
4. D for December (Fourth Qtr).

The digits stand for the year till it is valid. 

Hence, D06 would mean the December qtr of 2006.
Please return the Cylinder that you got with a Expiry Date. 

They are prone to leaks and other Hazardous accidents ...









The second example with D13 allows the 

cylinder to be in 


Use until Dec 2013.
Kindly pass this to everyone,
and create awareness among the public
