Tags are not sold separately. Each Prosolv® filter comes equipped with 40 tags. Once all 40 recycling certification tags are used, it's time for a new filter.

Prosolv® is designed to remove the sealing sleeve and internal valve stem from the small 1 pound propane, propylene, mapp, and calibration cylinders that have an EXTERNAL thread.

In many cases, there is an OSHA requirement for grounding of "vessels" to prevent any build-up of static electricity transferred to the system. The Prosolv® system is non-powered, and itself is not capable of generating a static charge.

Insert the tag into the open valve after processing to guarantee recycling and pickup. The tag proves the valve stem was removed, and it is a certified empty canister.

Check that the sealing sleeve is clear from the Prosolv® pin. Follow the steps again to remove the valve stem, and pull out with needle nose pliers. If that does not work, utilize the Prosolv® Overfill Valve Removal Tool on the completely empty canister. Please contact Customer Service for more details.

No, spent canisters with the recycling certification tag inserted are considered empty and are exempt from regulation under 40 CFR 261.6(a) (3) (iv). Scrap metal that is recycled is exempt from RCRA regulation under this provision, so generators do not need to make a hazardous waste determination.

The activated carbon adsorbs hydrocarbons and removes odor from the gas. It effectively reduces Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from the escaping gas, resulting in total hydrocarbon emissions 75% less than the 300 ppm desired limitations.

Often times oxygen bottles will have a left hand thread and will not fit the Prosolv® receiver. If the oxygen bottle has a right hand thread, remove the carbon filter and process as you would normally.

If the propane canister registers in the GREEN, then removal of the sealing sleeve and valve stem will only take one to two minutes. For more information, please see the instruction manual.
