What are the explosion limits for Propane Gas?

The explosion limits, also known as the flammability limits, for propane gas are indeed between 2.4% and 9.5% in the air. This range indicates the concentration of propane that can lead to an explosive mixture when mixed with air. When propane concentration is below 2.4%, the mixture is too lean to combust, while a concentration above 9.5% is too rich, preventing combustion.

Understanding these limits is crucial for safety in handling propane and in preventing fire hazards. Accurate knowledge of these limits helps technicians ensure that installations and appliances operate within safe parameters, reducing the risk of explosive environments.
