The new national standard for liquefied petroleum gas cylinders has been implemented to clarify five safety standards

The reporter learned from the General Administration of Market Supervision on the 15th that in view of the outstanding hidden dangers existing in the current safe operation of gas, the General Administration of Market Supervision (State Standards Committee) issued and implemented two mandatory national standards on liquefied petroleum gas cylinders and liquefied petroleum gas cylinder valves, and proposed more clear safety standards from five aspects.

The first is to prohibit gas-liquid dual phase bottles, only allow simple gas phase bottles or liquid phase bottles. In view of the high risk of liquid bottle, only a specification of 50kg is specified; The second is to improve the cylinder seal information. The stamped information must include important information such as manufacturer, allowable filling amount, manufacturing year and design service life, and requires the printing depth to be no less than 0.7mm, which is easy for users to read and meet regulatory requirements; The third is to increase electronic reading signs. The electronic reading mark is written into the key information of the gas cylinder, including product information, certificate of conformity, quality certificate, type test certificate, etc. Consumers can identify the authenticity of the gas cylinder by scanning the electronic logo; The fourth is to unify the color of the cylinder. In order to facilitate identification and management, the gas-phase bottle body is silver gray, and the liquid phase bottle body is white; Fifth, improve the quality traceability information requirements. The standard requires cylinder manufacturing enterprises to establish product traceability information websites to publicize the relevant information of each product to the society.

In the next step, the General Administration of Market Supervision will carry out the publicity and implementation of the standard, the implementation of the application and regulatory law enforcement work, requiring the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder and bottle valve industry to fully implement the standard requirements from the production, sales, filling and use of many links.
