11 Kg. propane cylinder
This cylinder contains 11kg. of propane and has a tare of approximately 13 kg. It is generally used by individuals, and is also intended for small industrial use such as:
- > Cooking: cookers and ovens.
- > Hot water: heaters and boilers.
- > Heating: mobile stoves and boilers.
- > Industrial applications: welding, plumbing, asphalting, industrial heating, ovens and cookers, etc.
- Other appliances: barbecues, outside heaters.
These cylinders have a black band marked on the top cap to differentiate them from the 12.5 Kg. butane cylinder. If the cylinder has to be fitted outside, it is advisable to use propane, since it vaporises better. With regards to the building features, and tests carried out on these cylinders, they are identical to the UD-125.

As a general rule, these cylinders have to be fitted outside the buildings, whether in private houses or commercial premises. They are usually protected by a shed made of fireproof material, although up to two bottles can be stored inside under certain conditions. In general, they are used connected to simultaneous unloading batteries, and the amount consumed is determined by the use of the installation.
The most usual batteries for single-family housing or small businesses are composed of 6 cylinders (3 operating ones and 3 reserve), or in groups of 10 cylinders (5+5), forming the so-called E.I.P. (Individual Propane Equipment).This means that when the first 3 or 5 cylinders are empty, the reserve cylinders are automatically connected to ensure a constant supply of energy.
