The collar comprises: a body, a fastening system and a rotatable lid disposed on the collar. Further provided is a collar with a window cut-out for viewing tank data and a regulator mounting clip for securing a regulator of the tank in place during use.

A gas cylinder mobility aid is provided. A gas cylinder mobility aid for attachment to a collar of a gas cylinder, comprising a base plate having an upper surface and a lower surface. One or more coupling members affixed to the lower surface of the base plate wherein the one or more coupling members are positioned to form a frictional fit with the collar of the gas cylinder. A vertical member affixed at the center of said base plate and a handle rotatably attached to the vertical member such that the handle is present above the upper surface of the base plate and the handle rotates about the vertical member.

A method for calculating the remaining usage time of a gas cylinder equipped with a pressure reducer, the method comprising the following steps: (a) measuring the pressure of the gas in the cylin-der; (b) calculating the variation of pressure of the gas in the cylinder over time while gas is out-putted; (c) calculating a remaining usage time Tr based on the measured pressure in the cylinder and the calculated variation of pressure. Step (c) takes into account characteristics of the pressure reducer relative to variations of its nominal flow rate along the decrease of its inlet pressure while emptying the cylinder.

Provided is a portable cylinder including a tank having an upper portion having a valve port, a mounting collar coupled to the upper portion of the tank, and a handle attached to the mounting collar.
