A: A Type 3 CNG cylinder has a composite wrap over a metallic liner, typically aluminum. It combines lightweight design with high-pressure capacity, making it ideal for automotive CNG storage. These cylinders meet strict safety standards for fuel containment.
A: Type 3 cylinders use a metallic liner with composite reinforcement, while Type 4 cylinders feature a non-metallic (plastic) liner. Type 4 is lighter but less heat-resistant, whereas Type 3 offers better durability for high-stress applications.
A: Type 3 cylinders provide a balance of strength, weight reduction, and corrosion resistance. Their aluminum liner ensures gas impermeability, while the composite wrap enhances structural integrity. They are widely used in vehicles due to their reliability and safety.
A: They are primarily used in commercial vehicles, buses, and trucks for CNG fuel systems. They’re also employed in industrial gas storage where weight and pressure requirements are critical. Their design suits applications demanding long-term durability.
A: Yes, Type 3 cylinders undergo rigorous testing to meet ISO 11439 and other global standards. Regular inspections ensure integrity over time. Proper maintenance minimizes risks of fatigue or damage during their service life.
