1. The means of Cylinders--industrial gas cylinders and Medical Oxygen Cylinder transportation must be safe and reliable.  Compared with common metal gas cylinder carts, the all-plastic gas cylinder cart does not produce frictional sparks, corrosion, noise, and maintenance during transportation. In addition, the all-plastic gas cylinder cart has a stronger push function, better balance and better operability than metal gas cylinders. Lightweight, effortless and durable. It can be suitable for any road surface, and the diameter of the cylinder can be as high as 31cm.

 2. All the gas cylinders Seamless Steel Gas Cylinders Must wear bottle caps (except for gas cylinders with protective covers), shock-proof rings (except for container gas cylinders), lightly load and unload, and strictly prohibit throwing, slipping, rolling, and touching.

3. When hoisting, no electromagnetic crane and metal chain rope.

4. Different gases cylinders, for example, Nitrogen Gas Cylinder, Acetylene Gas Cylinder and oxygen cylinder must not transport in the same vehicle (carriage) for Cylinders that can cause combustion, explosion, and poisoning when the gas in the cylinder come into contact with each other. Flammable, corrosive items or items that chemically react with the gas in the cylinder must not be transported with the cylinder transport.

5. When using vehicles for transportation, gas cylinders should be properly secured. When placed upright, the height of the carriage should be more than 2/3 of the height of the bottle. When laying down, the valve end of the bottle should face one side, and the stack height should not exceed five layers and should not exceed the height of the carriage.

6. Sun-shading facilities should be provided for transportation in summer to avoid sun exposure; daytime transportation should be avoided in prosperous areas of cities.

7. When transporting combustible gas cylinders, fireworks are strictly prohibited. Fire-fighting equipment should be provided on the means of transport.

8. Vehicles and ships transporting gas cylinders shall not park near prosperous urban areas, densely populated schools, theaters, large stores, etc.; when vehicles and ships are parked, drivers and escorts shall not leave at the same time.

9. Cyliners containing liquefied petroleum gas must not be transported more than 50 kilometers away.

10. The transportation of inflated gas cylinders --40L oxygen cylinderand 50L oxygen cylinderas best-seller should strictly comply with the regulations on the transportation of dangerous goods.

11. Transportation companies should formulate emergency response measures for accidents, and drivers and escorts should handle them correctly.
