Forklifts with two liquified petroleum gas cylinders

QwW
Forklifts with two gas cylinders have a stop valve with two possible settings:
– With the supply valves of both gas cylinders open to increase the total fuel capacity.
– With the supply valve of one gas cylinder closed to hold one cylinder in reserve.
The following points must be observed to ensure safe operation:
– The system must never be operated with only one cylinder connected.
– The plastic dust cover on the hydrostatic reducing valve must remain in place
during maintenance to prevent contamination, and must be examined regularly.
– The valve must be closed if the second cylinder will be used as a reserve cylinder
and it must be manually re-opened when the main cylinder is empty.
– When the main cylinder is empty and the reserve cylinder is opened, the valve of
the empty cylinder must be shut for safety reasons.
– If both cylinders will be used at the same time and the pressure in both cylinders is
not identical, the connector will first draw gas from the cylinder with the higher
pressure until the pressure in both cylinders is identical. Then gas will be drawn
from both cylinders.
– If one cylinder's hose ruptures, the connector will stop the gas flow from the other
cylinder (to prevent both cylinders from running empty).
