Sorry guys. God grant them a speedy recovery .......

[vkl.47]

They lit a hike. Failing to observe fire safety rules. And there, let the investigation displace.

[Vladimir_2U]

The explosion did not lead to any damage and did not cause a fire.

The cylinder could be airy, black of such a color.

[Hunter 2]

Unfortunately, the main reason for such incidents is Ordinary Sloppiness!

[LiSiCyn]

Cooked, most likely. What prevented putting in the grid and let the hood? And even easier, pull the balloon out into the street, the hoses are long.

[Romka47]

Damn, they just assumed that the balloon (it is not yet known what kind and whether it is) You have already directly described the whole situation as it was, and how it should have been done. Well, we all have the right to assume, maybe it was actually a KAMAZ "balloon" (in the sense of a wheel) pumped up and exploded, it was necessary to control the pressure and not stand in a heap next to it. Well, the same option, although of course yours is more obvious

[LiSiCyn]

Yes there below, options for cylinders and gas were not measured ...

maybe it was generally a KAMAZ "balloon"

Wheel, I don’t think so. Receiver, maybe. Two heavy. Shards most likely. If there was no fire, then they must have been tested without TB.
Below carand Rich has already written ... Propane - cooked.

Is the cylinder also in service? What are these parts in service
gas bottles?

The alleged cause of the accident was an exploding gas cylinder. This information was received by local emergency services. It happened in the garagelocated on the territory of the military unit, which was used to store automotive parts.

I fully admit that repairs were also carried out there, including welding.

Something like this. Any unintentional explosion is the result of a direct violation of safety precautions and storage conditions, to say the result of gouging and indifference. Let them get better.

Already reported - during welding, the gas cylinder detonated

Does anything other than propane come to mind? Gas can be different. Air, nitrogen, oxygen, freon ... - these are all gases that are widely used in military equipment and are stored in cylinders.

Air, nitrogen, oxygen, freon ... - these are all gases

Is air gas ???

Even a mixture of several gases. Or do you think this is liquid?

[Chaldon48]

Air is a mixture of gases 21% oxygen, the rest is nitrogen, carbon dioxide, inert gases.

It is possible that propane was used as automobile fuel. Well, gas is used in different ways, including for boiling tea, not observing the elementary rules of TB.

[LiSiCyn]

In the Army, propane is not used as fuel.

Haha, funny. Give in each box, equipped kitchen.

Air - if pressed. But then they should have been in the grid. Nitrogen - I don’t know. Oxygen - contact with oil, ignition (possible). Freon - would be poisoned faster. He’s heavy, he’d go downstairs.

Take a peek at leisure to the batterymen, how they heat up the soldering irons and what kind of fuel they use for this! For cars, I don’t know when I served, there was no gas auto equipment yet. Well, and about the kitchen - where there is a bowler hat and fire, there is a kitchen! You, apparently, served in the exemplary part!

"Bulbululator". You know, the blade is two wires. Or, alternatively, a spiral in a hollowed-out brick.
A gas bottle and stove are from the fiction section.

We parked at the techies parked there - it was more satisfying and calmer! And on the territory of the unit, as it should be - Kufnya!

And you do not admit that you could use any gas under pressure in the cylinder for many years not undergoing boiler supervision? I just could not stand the old cylinder and it burst. Moreover, as they say, there was no fire.

[LiSiCyn]

Yesterday I couldn’t answer you ... Yes, and we wondered, on the coffee grounds. Comrade Rich later unsubscribed. Welding work, propane. Why the balloon was indoors, and not on the street ... Sloppiness.

Virtually everything.

[Masha]

Thank God without loss and gain health soon ...

[cniza]

It is bad when arms and legs "run" in front of the head, a speedy recovery.

[tolancop]

99% for the fact that the accident is the result of elementary carelessness. And there are definitely more than 4 victims, because now they will start pulling "what ... how, why, as instructed ..." from the commander.
Even if all the documents turn out to be in order and the people were instructed "to tears," many unpleasant hours for the commander are guaranteed ... the commander of the unit and the immediate superior of the "blown up" can be safely attributed to the number of victims. ...
And those who received physical injuries are a pity, regardless of the circumstances. And give them ... health.

[Retvizan 8]

God grant that they recover and that without consequences and without injuries!

You can find one in any part. Propane oxygen, liquefied, compressed.

[Cetron]

All tank, diesel generators and other army large diesel engines are started by compressed air from the tanks. And they are backfilled with compressors - 150 atm. in the workshops. But a clear violation of the PTB, once jerked. Guys soon get better, they need to serve!

[Mikhail m]

How many gas cylinders in civilian life are torn, and with much more serious consequences, you cannot count. One in the army "slammed" out of sloppiness (now the gas explosion is called "cotton"), a catastrophe for the whole country. The incident is completely ordinary, why raise a wave?

[Prisoner]

Again fathers-commanders to shell out Vaseline. And on business. If they have gouging fighters in peacetime, they will self-destruct, then with the DB what will happen?

In fact, the fighters could have been involved in hacking, so it is still unknown what an official investigation will show. Of course it’s a pity the guys, but not as many three contractors as the conscript — he believed that he was working under the guidance of professionals, but it turned out that he had suffered for nothing. One author wrote correctly here - it was a gross violation of TB, and for this, of course, the fathers-commanders will receive in full.
