Steel cylinders for compressed gases — Welded two-piece construction — 0.1 kg to 150 kg

This Standard specifies requirements for welded carbon and stainless steel cylinders with no longitudinal joint and one circumferential joint, of water capacity not less than 0.1 kg nor more than 150 kg, which have test pressures from 1750 kPa to 7000 kPa and are intended for the storage and transport of compressed gases in accordance with AS 2030.1.
