Re:Transporting tanks
One thing I saw was PVC pipe with ends on one end and six of them fastened together this keeps direct sun off.
With direct sun you can get a build enough to blow the disc The air won't go bad in an aluminum over the winter Don't bleed down to 500 psi either empty the tank and pull the valve and put the shipping plug in, but be aware of your visual date if it is due before you use the tank no problem, but if not a completely empty tank will need to be visualed before filling. Store the tank full is best as if in the unlikely event you were to have a fire the pressure will build and the disc will blow in a tank with 500 psi the aluminum will degrade (170 degrees) before the disc blows. This could end in a rupture which could injure a fireman. It has happened |
