Carbon Monoxide Cylinder — safe, inspected packaging for a hazardous gas
A carbon monoxide cylinder from REAL GAZ is a purpose-prepared, pressure-tested container built to hold a toxic and flammable gas safely. Cylinders are available in common water capacities such as 10, 40 and 50 litres, with fill pressures set according to the gas grade.
Valves use outlets designed specifically for CO, such as DIN 477 No. 14 or CGA 350, which prevents accidental connection to incompatible equipment.

Our cylinders are manufactured to ISO 9809, marked under EN ISO 7225 and handled with valve guidance from EN ISO 10297, ready for industrial and laboratory use.
Carbon monoxide can react with iron under certain conditions to form iron carbonyl, so cylinder choice, pressure and internal condition matter. REAL GAZ selects cylinders and fill pressures to limit this risk and keeps CO cylinders dedicated to CO service so that previous contents do not cause contamination. Thread direction is also important: CO valves normally use a left-hand thread because the gas is flammable, a feature that helps operators identify the correct regulator. Empty cylinders should be returned with the valve closed and the protective cap fitted, so that residual pressure stays contained during transport.
🏭 Where Carbon Monoxide Cylinders Are Used
- ⚙️ Plant supply — a fixed cylinder station feeds a reactor or furnace line through a pressure-reducing regulator;
- 🔬 Analytical benches — small cylinders keep a stable supply close to chromatographs and spectrometers;
- 🏥 Calibration work — mixtures in CO cylinders are used to set the span of fixed and portable detectors;
- 🚀 Mobile service — field crews carry compact cylinders for commissioning and maintenance checks.
💡 Why Choose REAL GAZ
- ✅ Correct valve and outlet — each cylinder is fitted with a CO-compatible valve to avoid cross-connection;
- 🧪 Traceable cylinder history — periodic inspection dates and markings are checked before every fill;
- 🎯 Pre-fill preparation — cylinders are evacuated and purged so that residual air or moisture does not contaminate the gas;
- 🔒 Safe handling guidance — we provide advice on securing, transporting and storing cylinders upright and away from heat;
- 📄 Certificate of Analysis (CoA) — enclosed with each delivery so you know the content of the cylinder you have received.
🔬 Quality Control & Safety
- periodic inspection and hydrostatic test status checks;
- evacuation and purging before filling;
- fill pressure and weight verification;
- valve leak testing and tamper-evident closure.
Cylinders comply with ADR / UN transport rules and relevant EN/ISO standards. Store cylinders in a ventilated, secured area, with protective caps fitted whenever they are not in use.
