Sulfur Hexafluoride Compressed Gas Cylinder

Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) Compressed Gas Cylinders are containers used to store and transport SF6 gas. SF6 is a colorless, odorless, non-flammable, and non-toxic gas that is commonly used in various industries, including electrical utilities, medical equipment manufacturing, and semiconductor manufacturing.

These cylinders are classified under the supply class Commercial And Industrial Gas Cylinders, which includes various types of gas cylinders used in commercial and industrial applications. They are specifically categorized under the supply group Containers, Packaging, And Packing Supplies, which encompasses different types of containers, packaging materials, and packing supplies used for storage, transportation, and protection of goods.

Sulfur Hexafluoride Compressed Gas Cylinders are designed to withstand high pressure and are typically made of steel or aluminum. They are equipped with valves and fittings for easy filling, dispensing, and connection to equipment. These cylinders are regulated by safety standards and guidelines to ensure proper handling, storage, and transportation of SF6 gas.

It is important to note that SF6 gas is a greenhouse gas with a high global warming potential. Therefore, proper handling and disposal of SF6 gas and its cylinders are essential to minimize environmental impact.
