Advisory circular
A/C 43.13-1A
Section 3 Miscellaneous Equipment
DOT regulations require ICC or DOT 3AA designation cylinders to be
hydrostatic tested to 5/3 their working pressure, every 5 years.
Cylinders bearing designation ICCor DOT 3HT must be hydrostatic tested to
5/3 their working pressure every 3 years, and retired from service 15 years
or 4,380 filling cycles after date of manufacture, whichever occurs first.
