Have you ever heard about LPG gas cylinder's expire date. I also didn't know. How to find LPG cylinder's expiry date? This is a very important information.
Most of us do not know this. I come to know today from the gas stockiest, because here one accident occurred. 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 at the time of accepting any LPG cylinder from the vendor. Here is how we can check the expiry of LPG cylinders:
On one of three side stems of the cylinder, the expiry date is coded alpha numerically as follows A or B or C or D and some two digit number following this e.g. D06. The alphabets stand for quarters of the year.
-
A for March (First Quarter)
-
B for June (Second Quarter)
-
C for Sept (Third Quarter)
-
D for December (Fourth Quarter)
The digits stand for the year till it is valid. Hence D06 would mean December Quarter of 2006. Share this message with everyone you know. Your kind cooperation will save life of many people and create awareness among the public.
Please do not accept the cylinder if the date has already expired.
