Abstract (en)

In an LP gas charging equipment having an electrobalance (3) disposed in a carrying-in line (1) to a turntable (A) to weigh containers, a control panel (B) to which the electrobalance is connected and which has a central processing unit, gas charging valves adapted to open while the containers are moved by the turntable to supply gas from a gas distributor (5) to the containers, and flowmeters (9) for measuring the flow rate of gas at the time of gas charging, the amount of gas to be charged being calculated by the central processing unit (B) on the basis of the measured value provided from the electrobalance to control the gas charging work, an air distributor (6) and an electric distributor (7) are disposed centrally on the turntable, solenoid valves (15) and controllers (33) are arranged around those distributors, the controllers having address memories corresponding to container rest portions on the turntable, and the solenoid valves and flowmeters are connected to the solenoid valves in corresponding relation to the said memory addresses. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
