Have you wondered why different appliances require different size cylinders?

It all comes down to the vaporisation rate.

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) naturally exists as a vapour. To make it practical for storage and transportation, the gas is compressed into cylinders of various sizes, such as 9kg, 14kg, 19kg and 48kg, which converts the vapour into a liquid state.

LPG appliances are designed to burn vapour, not liquid. If liquid LPG were to combust, it would expand to approximately 240 times its liquid volume, making direct liquid combustion unsafe and unsuitable for appliance operation.

For this reason, LPG cylinders are only filled to 80% capacity, leaving 20% free space inside the cylinder. This space allows the liquid LPG to naturally vaporise.

As your appliance operates, it draws LPG vapour from the cylinder. To maintain a consistent gas supply, the remaining liquid LPG must continuously convert back into vapour. This process is known as vaporisation, and the rate at which it occurs is called the vaporisation rate.

Depending on cylinder size and operating conditions, LPG cylinders from 9kg to 48kg can typically vaporise between 0.46kg and 1.8kg of gas per hour during short-duration appliance use (less than 20 minutes).

Understanding vaporisation rates is important because if an appliance demands more gas than the cylinder can vaporise, performance may be affected, resulting in weak flames, poor heating efficiency, or intermittent operation.

✅ The correct cylinder size is not just about how long the gas lasts. It's also about ensuring your appliance receives enough vapour to operate safely and efficiently.
