Constant Pressure Cylinder
Matheson recommends the use of a constant pressure cylinder with multi-component hydrocarbon mixtures that have a high probability of fractionation. The constant pressure cylinder, illustrated below, maintains a constant working pressure of up to 1800 psi to the gas side of the cylinder. The constant pressure cylinder is approved for volumes ranging from 100 to 6000 cc.
