Key Details
| Detail | Verified information and buyer relevance |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 2.5 L, which is the key size check for buyers needing the stated cylinder volume. |
| Thread | M18x1.5-6H neck thread, so the connector must match the equipment it will be used with. |
| Working pressure | 30 MPa / 300 bar / 4500 psi, which is the stated operating pressure for the cylinder. |
| Hydrostatic test pressure | 50 MPa, relevant when comparing the cylinder’s stated test specification. |
| Minimum burst pressure | 102 MPa, a stated structural limit for the cylinder. |
| Certification | CE / EN approved, and not DOT approved. |
| Inspection cycle | 3 years, so the inspection interval matters before long-term ownership. |
| Service life | 15 years, which is a key ownership limit for planning replacement. |
| Configuration | Empty bottle, so buyers need to confirm whether they need a complete filled setup or just the cylinder. |
What to Compare Before Buying
- Capacity: This cylinder is 2.5 L. Compare that with the size you need for your setup.
- Thread: The neck thread is M18x1.5-6H. Check that the matching connector or fitting is correct.
- Pressure rating: The stated working pressure is 30 MPa / 300 bar / 4500 psi. Make sure your intended use matches that figure.
- Certification: It is CE / EN approved and not DOT approved. Check that this matches the approval you need.
- Ownership limits: The inspection cycle is 3 years and the service life is 15 years, so these time limits matter for long-term use.
What Else You May Need
Because this is an empty bottle, you will need the correct compatible filling and connection setup for your intended use. The thread specification also means the matching fitting must be checked carefully before purchase.
Before You Decide
Confirm the 2.5 L size, the M18x1.5-6H thread and the CE / EN approval before choosing an offer. If you need DOT approval, this cylinder is not the right option. Also check the inspection cycle and 15-year service life against your ownership plans.
