Most of us do not know this. Do you know that there is an expiry date
(physical life) for CNG cylinders? Expired Cylinders are not safe for use
and may cause accidents. In this regard please be cautious at the time of
accepting any CNG cylinder from the vendor.
Here is how we can check the expiry of CNG 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 - A for March (First Qtr), B - June
(Second Qtr), C-Sept (Third Qtr), D for December (Fourth Qtr). The digits
Stands for the year till it is valid. Hence D06 would mean December qtr of
2006.
