Description:
LPG is a highly flammable fuel gas.
LPG is an asphyxiant gas and vessels should be purged of LPG and restored to a safe oxygen level before entering.
In its gaseous phase LPG is about 50% heavier than air and therefore accumulates at ground level and in low lying areas.
Due to its low LEL (Lower Explosive Limit), explosive mixtures with air or oxygen can occur at very low LPG concentrations.
LPG has a high coefficient of thermal expansion and the over filling of tanks and cylinders can result in hydraulic rupture.
Rapidly vaporising LPG cools cylinders and pipe work to as low as -42oC and can cause frostbites.

LPG’s high calorific value makes it a key gas for heating appliances. LPG is used because of its ease of combustion, portability, clean burning characteristics and compatibility with almost all space heating appliances. In Hospitality and Leisure, LPG is used as a heating and cooking gas in restaurants,cafés and mobile catering vans.
LPG can be Propane, Butane or Propane/Butane mixtures. Propane is suitable for use in all conditions. It is the only LPG product suitable for cold climates because of its low boiling point of -43.6oF/-42oC. That's why Elgas provides LPG that is more than 95% Propane.
