Gas Locker Sizes

[knickam]

During my motorhome searches I notice that many foreign models say 2 x 11kg for the locker size.
I understand this suits the refillable type which are 11kg.
So just wondering can 13kg calories bottles be squeezed in or would you need to stick with 6kg ones.

I think they are the same thing, 13kg is the empty(tare) weight, and it will have 11kg of gas in it
different companies sell them different ways, dont know why.
the bottle is 315mm dia and 580mm high.

Not just re-fillables 11kg is the standard size bottle in Germany and a lot of mainland Europe countries.

11kg bottle H 597mm, dia 300mm.
13kg bottle H 580mm, dia 315mm.

The size of the cylinder refers to the amount of gas to the 80% fill level. A 13kg cylinder will contain 13kg of liquid gas and an 11kg cylinder will have 11 kg of liquid gas.
