DO NOT exceed maximum rated capacity of refrigerant containers. Never fill a container to more than 60% of its gross weight rating (for example, 18 lb in a 30 lb container).
Without sufficient room for expansion of R-134a (gas cushion), the container could explode when the temperature rises causing serious injury.
