Description

VOT Cylinders are the normal conventional type of cylinders which you would find in your homes, restaurants and other small commercial establishments These type of cylinders were introduced in India after independence with a view to provide LPG for cooking in homes. In these type of cylinders, the vapour is converted naturally inside the cylinder is discharged out through a VOT cylinder valve and used for usage applications. The rate at which liquid LPG inside the cylinder is naturally converted into LPG vapour and discharged for usage is around 0.4 to 0.7 kg/hr.

These type of cylinders are often required in household kitchens, commercial kitchens, restaurants, canteens, small industries, etc in multiple quantities connected in series for higher off-take where there is a higher consumption rate of LPG. Limitations of VOT Installations: Inadequate cylinder banks result in pressure drops in the VOT system throughout the year especially in peak hours or winter season. It is initially designed for the usage estimated and installed at the initial commencement of the project and subsequently more burners and equipment fired on LPG are added but the VOT cylinder bank remains the same.
