Explanation: Acetylene cylinders are designed for a specified charge of acetylene, the quantity of
the gas is determined in relation to the nominal quantity of the solvent. Complying with the appropriate
ratio of gas and quantity of the solvent is one of the conditions for the safe operation of the cylinder.
Excess solvent may result to a hydraulically full cylinder that, when subjected to temperature increase,
can develop extremely high internal pressures. Shortage of the solvent will result in the cylinder becoming
less resistant against decomposition due to flashback. Solvent replenishing of the acetylene cylinders is
Therefore essential and this operation shall therefore be carried out with due care before refilling of the
cylinders with acetylene gas.

previous two years, the valve shall be removed and the conditions of the porous substance at the neck of the
cylinder shall be ascertained at that time:
Provided that the period of periodical examination shall be one year in case the cylinders are filled with loose
porous mass.
40. Licence for compression of acetylene. - The compression of the acetylene gas into a cylinder shall be carried out
only on such premises as are signed by the Chief Controller or Controller.
41. Record of dissolved acetylene cylinders .- (1) Each firm charging acetylene in cylinders shall keep a record of
every cylinder charged by it and this record shall give the following information, namely: -
(a) for each charge, -
(i) the date of charging of the cylinder;
(ii) the empty cylinder weight without gas;
(iii) the weight of solvent charged before gas charging;
(iv) full weight of the cylinder;
(b) the dates on which solvent has been added;
(c) the dates on which the cylinder has been thoroughly examined as provided in rule 39, the results of each such
examination and the name of the person carrying out such examination, and in the case of cylinders first
issued by the firm, the tare weight of the cylinder including porous substance and acetone or other solvent,
the nature of the solvent and the maximum pressure allowed in the cylinder.
(2) The record shall be open for inspection of the Chief Controller or the Controller of Explosives.
42. Labeling of dissolved acetylene cylinders.- A warning label attached to every dissolved acetylene cylinder shall,
in addition to the particulars given in sub-rule (2) of rule 9 bear the following additional particulars, namely: -
(a) date of last filling of gas in the cylinder;
(b) weight of gas filled;

(iv) It shall be maintained in a clean dry condition.
4. Quality management system. - The quality management system of a cylinder testing station for seamless steel

B. Testing of cylinders
1. Condition of cylinders for test. - Cylinders forwarded to the test station for testing shall have been first
emptied of their contents and then labeled as 'empty'. Irrespective of this label all cylinders other than cylinders
at the manufacturers works shall be presumed to contain gas under pressure and the following precautions shall
accordingly be observed:
(i) The cylinder contents shall be released in a safe manner keeping in mind dangers associated with the
nature of the gas in the cylinder. Cylinders, which contain or may have been contaminated by poisonous
or obnoxious substances, shall be emptied only by test stations properly equipped and experienced to
handle the particular gas or substance. Such cylinders shall be clearly labeled that they have been
contaminated.
(ii) The valve shall be opened and if no gas escapes and the port is not visibly blocked, a charge of low-
pressure nitrogen or other inert gas shall be blown into the valve outlet. Discharge of gas after removal
of the nitrogen supply indicated the cylinder is empty. When no gas discharges the valves shall be treated
as "obstructed". Where a cylinder has contained poisonous or obnoxious substances, and the valve is
suspected of being obstructed, the gas shall be released within an approved appliance and the valves shall
be removed in such a manner that the gas escapes without danger to the operator.
(iii) Should the valve be obstructed the contents of the cylinder shall be released in safe manner as stated in (i)
above work on cylinders containing combustible gases shall be carried out in the open air in the degassing
area.
Note.- A suitable method of dealing with a valve in which the spindle cannot be removed is to drill a 1/16 th
in (1.6 mm) diameter hole with a hand drill through the valve body to the gas passage below the spindle
seating. Alternatively, a fine-tooth hacksaw may be used. Drilling or sawing must be stopped immediately
upon the first sign of escaping gas. A continuous jet of water must be directed on to the cutting tools and
the operator must wear personal protective equipment (PPE).
2. Inspection of cylinders before carrying out hydrostatic / hydrostatic stretch test -
(1) Prior to carrying out hydrostatic / hydrostatic stretch test, every cylinder shall be thoroughly cleaned by
steam cleaning or washing out with approved solvents. Where the interior of the cylinder is affected by rust or
Other foreign matter it shall be cleaned by one of the following methods namely: -
(a) Shot blasting, rotary wire brushing;
(b) Burnout treatment carried out in a furnace at a temperature not exceeding 300 ° C for a period of
not exceeding one hour after which all free rusts and any other foreign matter shall be removed by
steam cleaning or washing with approved solvents.
(2) The cylinders after cleaning shall be visually examined externally and as far as practicable internally for
surface defect in accordance with the IS: 5845, IS: 8451, IS: 13258, ISO: 11623 as the case may be, or any other
Code approved in writing by the Chief Controller.
(3) The cryogenic containers shall be pneumatically tested at test pressure 1.1 times to the design pressure
3. Hydrostatic or hydrostatic stretch test or proof pressure test. -
(1) For cylinders used for permanent gases, high pressure liquefiable gases and all toxic and corrosive gases: -

of the total stretch Suffered during the test.

Page 90
90 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA: EXTRAORDINARY [P ART II — S EC . 3 (i)]

(iii) Any reduction in pressure noticed during the retention of 30 seconds or any leakage, visible bulge or
deformation should be treated as case of failure in the test.

(2) For cylinders for low pressure non-corrosive liquefiable gases:

(i) The cylinder shall be subjected to hydrostatic test in accordance with IS: 5844 by non-jacket method except
that the volumetric changes during the test need not be measured.

(ii) The test pressure shall be retained for a period of not less than 30 seconds. Any reduction in pressure
noticed during this retention period or any leakage, visible bulge or deformation shall be treated as case
of failure in the test.

(3) As soon as the test is completed, the cylinder shall be thoroughly dried internally and shall be
clearly stamped on the neck and with marks and figures indicating the person by whom the test has been
carried out and the date of test. Code mark of the person by whom the test has been carried out shall be
registered with the Chief Controller.

4. Any cylinder which fails to pass periodic examination or test or which loses in its tare weight by over 5 per cent
or which for any other defect is found to be unsafe for use and which cannot be repaired in accordance with rule
11 & 12 shall be reported to the owner of the cylinder and shall be destroyed by rendering the cylinder unusable
as provided under rule 36.
