Any medicine or food products if consumed after the expiry date, can be dangerous for the health. Similarly, if the gas cyllinder in your kitchen has an expiry date & if we use a cyllinder which had officially expired an year ago, don't you think that it can be dangerous for you.
To our surprise, when we tried to check various kitchens, in just 15 minutes we located TWO GAS Cyllinders with dates of B - 08 & D - 08. Means the first cyllinder was expired in June 2008 & the second cyllinder was expired in December 2008. But these are still being refilled by the gas company's & supplied to the consumers.
If a gas cyllinder as above, exploades, and any harm is suffered by the consumers, they won't be able to prove as the blasted cyllinder won't exhibit the expiry date & the Gas company can very easily say that it happened due to the negligence of the consumers.
Do you know the Gas cyllinder in your kitchen has an expiry date ?
Yes, it's true.
It's written in the inner side of the top portion. The 12 months of an year are divided into four parts, as below :
Jan, Feb, March stand for A Apr, May, June stand for B Jul, Aug, Sept. stand for C Oct, Nov, Dec. stand for D
If the cyllinder has the marking c-12. It means that the expiry date of the cyllinder is Maximum September of 2012.
Similarly, if the cyllinder has the marking A 09. It means that the expiry date of the cyllinder was maximum March 2009.
Therefore, while taking a gas cyllinder from any gas company, we must check the expiry date and act accordingly. Otherwise, the expired filled cyllinder can be very dangerous as in case of expired medicines or expired food products. It means the cyllinder is no more capable of holding the pressure of the gas filled and can expload.
