Epiration datr of a brand new lpg cylinder

The expiration date of a brand new LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) cylinder is typically 10 to 15 years from the date of manufacture, depending on the country and region you are in. This is because LPG cylinders are designed to last for a long time, and the manufacturer's warranty usually covers the cylinder for a certain period.

In the United States, for example, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requires that LPG cylinders be marked with a "date of manufacture" or "DOT" date, which is the date the cylinder was manufactured. The cylinder's manufacturer is also required to provide a warranty that covers the cylinder for at least 10 years from the date of manufacture.

In the European Union, the expiration date of an LPG cylinder is typically 15 years from the date of manufacture, according to the EU's Pressure Equipment Directive.

It's worth noting that the expiration date of an LPG cylinder does not necessarily mean that it is no longer safe to use. The cylinder may still be in good condition and safe to use, even if it is past its expiration date. However, it's always a good idea to have the cylinder inspected and tested by a qualified technician before using it, regardless of its age.

Here are some general guidelines for the expiration date of LPG cylinders in different regions:

It's always best to check with the manufacturer or a qualified technician to determine the specific expiration date of your LPG cylinder.
