The maximum gross weight for each of the cylinders above is computed as follows: Max Gross WT = Cylinder Tare WT + Max Refrigerant Net WT Where the Cylinder Tare WT is the empty weight of the cylinder as received and the Max Refrigerant Net WT is computed as follows: Max Refrigerant Net WT = WC x SG x 0.8 Where WC is the water capacity of the cylinder in lb, SG is the specific gravity of the refrigerant at 77 °F and 0.8 is the safety factor. Table 4 below lists the refrigerant's Specific Gravity. Table 3: Acceptable Cylinders CYLINDER SIZE MAX PRESSURE TYPICAL EMPTY WEIGHT DEPOSIT   30 lb. 350 psig 14 lbs.
