How often should a vehicle's gas cylinder be inspected?
1 Answers
Vehicle gas cylinders require inspection every 3 years and replacement every 10 years. Gas cylinder annual inspection: The service life of a vehicle's natural gas cylinder is generally 15 years. For safety considerations, relevant regulations stipulate that vehicles converted to gas must undergo cylinder inspection every two years. If any wear is found on the cylinder, it must be replaced before continued use. Precautions: In gas-converted vehicles, the cylinder is typically secured by two retaining straps with a buffer pad between the cylinder and straps to provide protection. If this rubber pad becomes damaged, the cylinder will experience wear. Therefore, vehicle owners should pay attention to the condition of this pad and replace it promptly if damaged to prevent cylinder damage.
