LPG cylinder's expiry date
How to find LPG cylinder's expiry date?
Most of us might not know this. 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 -
A for Jan-Mar (First Qtr)
B for Apr-Jun (Second Qtr)
C for Jul-Sep (Third Qtr) &
D for Oct-Dec (Fourth Qtr)
The digits stand for the year till it is valid. Hence D06 would mean fourth qtr of 2006.
