Classification of cylinders
Cylinders can be divided into different categories according to their use environment, gas type and other factors. Let's take a look at each of them:
1. Atmospheric cylinders
Atmospheric cylinders, also known as air compression cylinders, are bottles that store conventional gases. Atmospheric cylinders can be used to store oxygen, liquefied natural gas (LNG), natural gas, air and industrial gases, etc. The volume of atmospheric cylinders is generally large, and it has a wide range of uses, which can meet different use needs.
2. High-pressure cylinders
A high-pressure cylinder is a storage medium between an atmospheric cylinder and a cryogenic storage tank for storing high-pressure gases. The high-pressure cylinder has a relatively small capacity, which is suitable for occasions where high-pressure gas is required. High-pressure cylinders mainly include hydrogen cylinders, oxygen cylinders, liquefied petroleum gas cylinders, liquefied natural gas cylinders, etc.
3. Cryogenic cylinders
Cryogenic cylinder is a kind of equipment used to store low-temperature liquid gas, mainly including liquefied natural gas cylinders, liquefied petroleum gas cylinders, liquid oxygen cylinders, liquid hydrogen cylinders, etc. The working temperature of the cryogenic cylinder is low, which can reach about minus 100 degrees.
Characteristics of the cylinder
The cylinder stores gas at room temperature and pressure, which has strong airtightness and storage stability, and the gas in the cylinder is not polluted and corroded. The cylinder has a high storage pressure strength and reliability, and can store high-pressure gases.
In addition, the cylinder has the following characteristics:
1. Compressed air has high storage efficiency, small storage space, and is easy to carry.
2. The recycling rate of cylinder waste is high, which saves resources and reduces pollution.
3. The cylinder manufacturing material is environmentally friendly, which can protect the health of the human body and the environment.
