Adding and Updating Cylinders
Add a cylinder if the correct cylinder for your bump testing and calibration
needs is not on the cylinder list. For example, you may have GX-2001’s
that are LEL/Oxy/CO and so do not need to use a 4-gas mix that includes
H
2
S. In this case you would add a 3-gas cylinder to the cylinder list with
the appropriate gas concentrations.
When you begin using a new cylinder that is already on the cylinder list,
you will need to update the expiration date of the new cylinder. Also,
update the gas concentration of a user defined cylinder if the cylinder you
are using is the same as the defined cylinder, but one of the gas
concentrations is slightly different. For example if the oxygen
concentration in the user defined 4-gas cylinder is defined as 12%, but
the cylinder label for the cylinder you will use states that it is 11.5%,
update the gas concentration for that cylinder.
If you are using a cylinder that has the same gas or gases as one of the
pre-defined cylinders, but is not the same RKI part number as one of the
RKI cylinders that is pre-defined, add the cylinder to the cylinder list
instead of changing the concentrations of a pre-defined cylinder.
