Hauptverband der gewerblichen Berufsg-
enossenschaften e.V. (HVBG). Liquified
gases (propellants) are butane and pro-
pane or a mixture of butane/propane. They
are available in special cylinders. The op-
erating pressure of these gases depends
on the outside temperature.

Danger
Risk of explosion! Do not handle liquified
gas like petrol. Petrol evaporates slowly,
liquified gas immediately turns into gas.
The risk of gas spreading in the room and
getting ignited is thus higher in case of liq-
uefied gas than in petrol.

Danger
Risk of injury! Use only liquefied gas cylin-
ders with propellant filled according to DIN
51622 of A or B quality, depending on the
surrounding temperature.
Caution
Use of cooking gas is strictly prohibited. For
the gas engine, use only liquid gas mix-
tures of propane/ butane or their mixtures
where the mixing ratio lies between 90/10
to 30/70. On account of better cold start
behaviour even at low outside sub-zero
temperatures (below 32 °F) always prefer a
mixture with a higher propane share be-
cause evaporation takes place even at low
temperatures.
–
All persons handling liquid gases are li-
able to acquaint themselves with the
special properties of the liquefied gases
for hazard-free handling of operations.
The current documentation is always to
be kept with the sweeper.
–
Propellant-operated units are to be
checked at regular intervals, at least
once a year, by an expert against leaks
(according to BGG 936) and ensure
that the unit is functioning properly.
–
The inspection must be certified and
documented. The inspection guide-
lines are § 33 and § 37 UVV (occupa-
tion accident prevention regulations)
"Use of liquid gas" (BGV D34).
–
General applicable regulations are the
guidelines for inspecting vehicles
whose engines are driven by liquefied
gases of the Federal Transportation
Minister.
