Indane gas cylinder
Gas Leakage

After opening the seal of an Indane gas that was just delivered, I have given the gas regulator connection. After connecting the regulator, I have just opened regulator's Knob. I heard the gas cylinder leaking noise clearly. I thought that I ll have to connect properly and tried again. Even after connecting properly the gas was leaking after opening regulators knob. Then I inspected properly the difference between the empty cylinder and the new one. The new cylinder had a defect. A rubber washer was missing in the delivered cylinder. This was the reason for the leakage. I was surprised that the cylinder had escaped so much of security checks that Indian oil company would have at their factory. This shows that some loop hole definitely exist in the company's security policy.
