What is one key feature of an ASME container's design that enhances safety?

The design of ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) containers includes integrated pressure relief valves as a crucial safety feature. These valves are specifically engineered to prevent pressure buildup within the container, which can occur due to thermal expansion or other factors that can lead to dangerous situations. When pressure exceeds safe limits, the relief valves automatically vent the excess pressure, thereby reducing the risk of explosion or rupture of the container.

This safety measure is vital in the storage and transportation of LP gas, as it ensures that the container operates within safe pressure limits under various conditions. Other design features, such as a transparent body or decorative moldings, do not contribute to the safety of the container, nor does lightweight construction address the structural integrity needed for pressure regulation. Therefore, the integration of pressure relief valves is a fundamental aspect of ASME container design that significantly enhances user safety.
