This Standard introduces the concepts of blowdown rack as a safety measure for dealing with leaking or damaged cylinders. It also introduces the concept of a loose identification collar. The collar is to carry the cylinder identification marks and is retained by the cylinder valve. These two new concepts will enhance safety in the use of acetylene gas.

Scope

This Standard specifies requirements for the acceptance, filling, inspection, and care of refillable gas cylinders for the storage of compressed acetylene dissolved in a solvent, and having a cylinder shell water capacity exceeding 5 kg.
NOTES:
1 Requirements for cylinders for gases other than acetylene are specified in AS 2030.1.
2 This Standard provides for solvents other than acetone, but only dimethylformamide (DMF) has been specifically considered as an alternative and DMF should be used only where cylinders are in manifolded crates.
3 The requirements of this Standard are not intended to preclude the filling of previously acceptable, and not specifically provided for, small dissolved acetylene gas cylinders (of nominal water capacities 5.0 to 11 kg).
