Discussion AA - Argon Asphyxiation

[dyingispeaceful]

Hi Everyone,

So I got a C Size Argon Cylinder. Would you recommend purchasing a cylinder cart to store yet? If yes, which ones would you recommend?

Thanks!

I'm thinking about the same sort of thing. I'm leaning more towards using a ratchet strap to secure the tank to something, if only because I don't have the space to store a cart or a dolly.

I store my N2 in a corner of my pantry, unsecured --which is not wise, for safety reasons. I should be better about it. If a cylinder is knocked over and the valve damaged, it becomes a missile.

So are you thinking about a cart or something else?

I'll probably just secure it with a strap around something solid, or maybe just pack it in among the sacks of beans and rice. It's only a 40cf, not even 24" tall, so a cart is overkill.
