ACETYLENE CYLINDERS

DANGER

stowage is necessary,
or an acetylene cylinder is inadvertently
left lying in a horizontal position, it must
be placed in an upright position for a
minimum of two hours before it can be
used. Otherwise, acetone in which the
acetylene is dissolved will be drawn out
with the gas. By dissolving acetylene in
acetone, pressures above 15 PSIG are
safely attainable. If enough acetone is
removed, the cylinder may become
unstable and explode.
