    Cool info on propane and excellent safety advice. Being a man that works in propane daily, actually the little needle valve is a pressure relief valve. If the tank is in the sun or somehow back feeds from a higher pressure. That needle valve will release the pressure automatically so the little tank doesn't burst.

    I used to work at the factory in maize Kansas where the majority of the small Coleman bottles were manufactured. They are two steel cups that are made on a punch press and braised together in giant ovens.
    They are typically filled at about 1,700 PSI in the filling machine. They are filled by volume and not by weight. There is also no attempt to remove the residual air from the bottle before they are filled. The air that's in the bottle it's compressed when they fill it with propane, however it's such a rich environment the explosion potential is non-existent because you're way above the uEL for propane.
    They have a burst pressure of about 700 PSI. If memory serves about three bottles out of every thousand produced are hydrostatically tested. They usually fail at slightly over 700 PSI in the quality lab.
    propane that goes into most of these bottles is stored in a big salt dome outside of Hutchinson Kansas. To get this propane for putting in the bottles they inject brine into the salt dome and pump propane back out. As a result from time to time there were issues with the trucking company where in they would be loads of Brine delivered instead of propane. This led to a lot of appliances being ruined because people use propane that was contaminated with salt water, and it wasn't detected until the production machinery started failing, and one of the maintenance guys tasted the white powdery stuff inside the pump that broke down.
    These bottles will typically blow up and expand scary big before they actually fail and explode. The failure typically does not produce shrapnel but a longitudinal split in the side of the container. The valve that you connect your appliance to it's called the main valve and the other one is called the releif valve.
    These things are a serious safety hazard when refilled. It would be hard to prove that anybody actually refilled one but the Department of transportation fine is huge if you get caught.It is critically important that these not be filled more than 80% for everyone's safety.
    It's also a great idea to lubricate the o-ring inside the main valve with a little bit of o-ring lube, KY jelly or glycerin. I would definitely recommend against using anything petroleum-based because there are different types of a rings used from time to time and petroleum could cause it to expand and fail over time if a person we're going to use a bottle one time it wouldn't matter but if you're planning on giving your bottles a long life with multiple refills it would be a good idea to lube the o-ring. At the factory a liberally dust the o-rings with dry moly lube. This does most of the production process running smoothly then it does to help the life of the o-ring. I would recommend Parker o-ring lube over everything else.
    These cylinders are now made by Worthington as they bought the Coleman factory in maize Kansas. I no longer associated with that operation or company in any way, just passing on my experiences. Stay safe everyone!

Voids in tanks are there for a reason and very dangerous if not taken care of properly before welding.

      I’ve had them start leaking after a few refills. I never trust a refill when I don’t have a valve attached (a torch, heater, or anything).
      Now that I have some money, and spending a few bucks doesn’t matter, I don’t risk it. The self sealing fitting is not designed to work for more than a couple tanks worth of action.
      I would suggest a torch to empty it, so you don’t damage the seal with a screwdriver, and you don’t exceed the spring’s design range. I’m not convinced emptying it helps you anyway, but do it the way it’s designed.

    I have been doing this for 17 years and have had zero issues, other than leaks. I have never had a cylinder even come close to overfilling.. 100% of the time they end up lighter than a new/full one. This is what I've learned: 1) This works much better if you put the green cylinders in the freezer for an hour first. I could never get them more than half-full otherwise. 2) Never refill any non-Coleman cylinder. They will leak 80% of the time after refilling. 3) Have a propane appliance (e.g. stove valve) handy. Very often the valve will leak for a few minutes after filling, and the propane appliance will seal it off until the cylinder re-equilibrates to room temp and the valve seals better.

      Thanks. Some guy on another channel mentioned "why put these in the refrigerator beforehand since they get very cold during the refill anyways." This misses the point. They get cold because the gas from the larger tank expands as it enters the lower pressure tank; this expansion always produces cooling. Conversely, pre-cooling the tank will keep the gas from expanding as much (or in other words, it will lower the volume of the gas at a given pressure). That's why you get better filling with a pre-chilled tank! It just makes sense.

      It’s the same as refilling a NOS Nitrous bottle. You need to purge after you put them in the freezer. When the bottle freezes it shrinks, so open the valve to let pressure out then when it warms up it will cause a vacuum. That way you get more fuel in the tank if you don’t believe me weigh the small tank doing it your way after filling and then weigh the next small tank doing it my Way and see which is heavier. It also works better and you get more fuel/propane if the Large tank is like 85°. If the big tank is cold the pressure is lower. If it gets too much pressure in the small tank it will pop the blow off valve just for a minute. I’ve had them do it from just sitting in my garage in the summer time.

    Freezing the receiving tank has two benefits 1) condenses air to allow more propane (a coincidental benefit ) and 2) prevents the liquid propane expanding to gas on initial charge (the main reason) . HOWEVER in the UK (and other countries presumably) inverting the large propane (or butane & other combustible gases & oxygen) you will find the bottles have a shutoff valve built in when the liquid contacts it. This is a deliberate design to prevent bottles gassing when rolling around in accidents etc ( engineer, hire trader, sparky & mechanic )

    I appreciate you going to the trouble to show how to refill these bottles. I have always been appalled at how these propane bottles are supposed to be thrown away! The amount of metal they contain alone should say they should be refilled. I saw where they say don’t refill them so I never tried it but your reading the warning and pointing out that the rub is essentially only if they are transported makes it clear that they can certainly be refilled for ones own use. Personally I’d like to have some sort of pressure gauge on the bottle but I was really impressed at your practical and thrifty practice of refilling those bottles. Thank you so much!

    If this is something you do often, you may want to look into picking up a liquid-feed propane tank. They have a tube that draws liquid from the bottom of the tank when it's upright or laying sideways. Forklift propane tanks are liquid feed, as are many industrial propane tanks. They aren't necessarily more expensive than a normal tank. That and if you get a separate propane vaporizer you can then run your grill off your liquid propane tank and get the benefits that come along with it.

      "why is it unsafe to travel with a refilled bottle"...It's only unsafe if the bottle has been overfilled which is possible to do. The overfilled the bottle may vent gas through the pressure relief valve in an environment such as a hot vehicle. To prevent this it's best to weigh your refilled bottles to insure they are not overfilled.
      "how could the government possibly know a bottle has been refilled?'...You'd tell them. The law regarding the transport of refilled bottles only pertains to COMMERCIAL carriers.

      you most likely will over fill the canister. You are not to fill a propane tank more then 80% full. most are only filled to 75% for safety reasons. just like in a coke bottle you need an expansion space for safety. He turns the tank upside down to allow for the liquid propane to flow into the tank. This will fill the tank to 100% which is very bad. Be aware of this. Also the safety valve he talks about (using the pliers) should not be under the liquid or it will not function properly. When using a propane tank always have it upright so only gas comes out not liquid. Be very careful.

    I'd recommend using a hose to connect the two bottles. And put the smaller bottle in water while filling. 1) this would allow you to see if there's any leaking. 2) this will cool the smaller bottle while filling and 3) if there is an explosion the water will help contain such.

Also, when under water, if the overpressure valve is leaking even just a little bit, it would be pretty obvious...

      Not that I'd rely on this, but someone stated in another comment that it is not advisable. That being said, I know a guy who does in fact refill the blue Bernz-o-Matic tanks. I'd be interested in knowing why they'd be any different. On a side note, I recently picked up a bunch of torch cylinders, about half of them the yellow MAPP type....one of which is shaped exactly like the coleman tanks. I'll try to get info off of that to see what its purpose was/is.

    Question: Before you vent of residual pressure in the canister you are about to refill using the screwdriver in the valve, could you not place the canister in hot water for a few minutes and then vent off the residual pressure? Then, when the canister cools in the freezer, it would put more of a vacuum in the canister and thus accept more LP when refilled. Kind of like pulling a vacuum on an air conditioning system before refilling with Freon only using heat instead of a vacuum pump.

  • @mikeb46
    @mikeb46 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    From research I have done, the federal law forbidding transportation was established to prevent explosions in vehicles and or trailers. If a person is not careful they can disturb the valves which will leak. Now put 4 of those leakers in the trunk of a car and you have a good amount of LP waiting for a spark.
    If all you do is refill, check for leaks at the valve and store at home, you should be safe.
    I don't know how the feds would determine it had been refilled if there was a problem on the road. But telling fire and police the were factory canisters would bring the company into the investigation and I'm sure they can afford better lawyers than the average citizen. So transport refilled cylinders at your own peril. The fine is huge.
    The way you do this should be safe. The ones who pull that relief valve are asking for trouble. Worse yet, holding it open to push in more gas could allow a person to overfill. Then you have a dangerous situation. If it gets warm it could burst, or leak and KABOOM.

Once a tank valve failed while being filled (outdoor covered platform in the winter) and I was sprayed from my waist to my left shoulder with liquid propane. I was wearing an undershirt, quilted long sleeve insulated top, uniform shirt, knit sweater, and a Carhart jacket - 5 layers. The liquid propane went all the way to my skin and left what looked like a burn - red and swollen. It took about 3 weeks for that instant frostbite to heal. As propane evaporates it chills to -44 F.

    I love watching video's about refilling these canister's and the comment's....crack's me up.
    Let me first say that you can buy the adapter just about anywhere including eBay and Walmart. You can also purchase a hose that will allow you to use a bigger tank on item's that use the canister's.
    Here is the easiest and safest way to do this. NO REFRIGERATION NEEDED!
    Get a needle valve remover like they use for a tire valve stem. If you get the cap type then just put it on an old valve stem.
    Before hooking the tank and canister up, make sure you SLIGHTLY crack open the pressure relief valve IN THE LITTLE HOLE.
    Hook the canister to tank, open tank valve SLOWLY then invert. Try to keep the purge valve on canister about the 10/11 or 1/2 o'clock position when filling. Pressure will escape while filling. When filled, retighten needle valve. Stand tank back up, THEN shut off. Disconnect the two.
    Check with soapy water or whatever you use for leak's.
    SAFETY NOTE: ALWAYS WEAR GOGGLES, (NOT GLASSES) AND GLOVE'S?

    I like emphasis on safety, but refilling those bottles on reloading bench probably not a good idea, most people me included do have lubricants, primers and gun powder around reloading equipment. Personally, when i do refill those bottles, i don't see a need to get all gas out. if you were to buy brand new propane tank before you use it, it must be purged (removing oxygen or nitrogen), so equalizing tank with atmospheric pressure, probably not a good idea. Another thing i did find out, leaving 1lb propane bottle in freezer and 20 lb bottle at around 24 degrees celcius, never gets 1 lb filled more then 65-70%, i did check it with digital scale (normally bottles are filled to 80%), which is great safety factor. Great tip on getting those bottles from campgrounds, thats where i got most of mine. Little valve beside, is not for letting air out, its pressure relief valve, preventing tank exploding in abnormal conditions. One thing i do like to add, occasionally when you done filling a tank, valve on 1lb tank could stick a little, have a piece of copper wire near by and quickly depressing valve usually makes it close properly, don't use steel screwdriver (steel on steel could create spark). And once you bottle been refilled a few times and empty they do make a great target at range.

      Yup, as a scuba diver, unless transporting a tank on an airplane, the tank should always be pressurized just for the reason you mention - keep water out. Also, if a tank had to be emptied completely, it should undergo a tank inspection prior to refilling. Scuba tanks are typically at 3,000 psi when full and definitely heat up if filled too fast (bad scenario and people have paid the price for doing that). Propane cylinders are obviously less pressure but the concept is the same.

    Lots of ongoing comments and questions since this video came out. let me answer some of these from my 35 yearts of gas delivery equipment experience. Random order.
    Some of the 1 lb. bottle main valves do leak even after the first use. Mr. Heater does sell a hard cap.
    Best way to determine fill level is with a scale. You want 1 pound over the empty bottle weight.
    Hoses from the supply tank to the receiving bottle should not be used unless they are cryogenic hoses. Soft hoses will tend to vaporise the liquid propane, thus a short metal connection is best.
    Lots of places to get a propane tank refill adapter. My local Ace Hardware has them in stock, but at a high price. Walmart has the Mr. Heater one online for cheap.
    Overfilling would be hard to do. It does take procedures like freezing the bottle and venting the pressure to get a full fill. A warm bottle will vaprorize the liquid, and not let as much liquid in.
    Optimum liquid fill is 80% of bottle capacity. The other 20% is vapor in what is called "headspace". OPD bottles were mandated because many operators would fill them too much. They would overpressure if warmed, opening the releif valve. I have had this happen in a vehicle after cold weather filling! 1 lb. bottles don't have any overfill protection. If you overfill (measured by weight) just vent some out.
    Most 20/30 pound propane tanks don't have a liquid tap, which why you have to invert them. Not sure if larger residential tanks do.
    You do not want idiots to do this!!!

      +jiujitsu2000 My dad worked with propane for 35 years. Stressed safety and never had an accident. I refill my tanks, following his rules and have no issues. I also number
      my tanks and weigh my tanks. This is important so you don`t overfill. Great video.

      +jiujitsu2000 I have always thought about a video, but never seem to get one made. I watch videos

      +jiujitsu2000 I watch videos to see if I can learn any new "tricks". Be safe, save money and reduce waste.

    Thank you for the lesson. I see that you are a reloader and perhaps a caster, way to go.

    Always wanted to know how to properly fill them. Is there any way to tell how much is in the can? 50% full etc?
