RFID Cylinder Tracking System
Know Where Every Cylinder Is — And Who Has It, with RFID
SRK Innovations builds RFID cylinder tracking systems for LPG, industrial gas and medical gas operators. Tag every cylinder once, then track ownership, refill cycles, distributor balances and hydro-test due dates automatically — with a permanent history for every cylinder in your fleet.
Why Choose SRK Innovations?
Most cylinder tracking vendors resell someone else’s readers or license someone else’s platform.
SRK Innovations manufactures the tags, supplies the readers and writes the cylinder tracking software
— so there is one team accountable for the whole system.
15+ years of RFID experience
Fifteen years of deploying RFID asset tracking across manufacturing, warehousing, healthcare and retail — applied to the specific problem of high-pressure cylinders.
Made in India RFID solutions
Tags and readers designed and assembled in India, with local stock, local spares and pricing that is not tied to import lead times.
Complete hardware + software
Cylinder tags, fixed readers, gate antennas, handheld terminals, printers and the cylinder inventory software — supplied and supported as one system.
Custom RFID development
Tag encoding schemes, gate logic, weighbridge integration and reports built around how your plant actually runs, not a fixed template.
Fast installation
A single-plant pilot is typically live in two to four weeks — site survey, read testing, reader mounting, master data upload and operator training included.
PAN India support
On-site engineers and remote support covering plants, depots and distributor locations across India, with defined response commitments.
Enterprise integration
REST APIs and scheduled exchanges into SAP, Oracle, Tally, Dynamics or your billing system, so cylinder movements reconcile against invoices and deposits.
Dedicated technical team
A named project engineer through survey, rollout and handover — plus training material your supervisors can actually use on the shop floor.

UHF RFID cylinder tags
Anti-metal and ceramic tags built for cylinder bodies and neck rings — rated for heat, impact, water, oil, UV and repeated shot-blast and repaint cycles.
Fixed multi-port RFID readers
Four-port industrial readers for filling carousels, weighbridges and stockyard portals, with TCP/IP and serial output into the cylinder tracking software.
Long-range gate and walkthrough readers
Integrated readers with 9 dBi antennas mounted at dispatch gates, reading full pallets and truck loads of cylinders as they pass without stopping the vehicle.
Handheld Android RFID readers
Rugged handheld terminals for delivery vans, distributor godowns and stockyard audits, with an offline mode that syncs the moment the network returns.
RFID label and tag printers
Print and encode cylinder tags on site, including barcode and QR backup marking so a cylinder can still be identified if a tag is ever damaged.
Cylinder tracking software
The platform that ties it together: dashboards, refill history, distributor ledgers, hydro-test scheduling, exception reports, user roles and ERP APIs.
How It Works — Tag to Reconciliation Report
Every cylinder follows the same steps each cycle — from the day it is tagged to the report that reconciles plant, distributor and customer balances. Nothing reaches the filling line without passing its ownership and safety check.
Every count is reconciled against book stock before it is closed for the day — fewer losses, faster audits, complete peace of mind.
Everything a Cylinder Fleet Needs, inOne System
Cylinder tracking software that covers the full lifecycle: identity, filling, dispatch, delivery, return and testing. Built for operators who need cylinder traceability that will stand up to an audit.
End-to-end cylinder traceability
See which plant, truck, distributor or customer site holds every cylinder right now — and the full movement chain that got it there.
- Serial-level location and custody
- Complete movement history per cylinder
- Audit-ready export by date or customer
Refill cycle and filling control
Log every fill against the cylinder serial with batch, gas type, bay and operator. Spot cylinders that stopped rotating months ago.
- Fill count and turnaround reporting
- Batch and gas-type traceability
- Slow-moving and idle stock alerts
Hydro-test and safety compliance
Store manufacturing date, last test date and next due date per cylinder. Overdue cylinders are stopped at the gate before they reach the filling line.
- Advance test-due notifications
- Automatic hold on expired cylinders
- Test result history against each serial
Distributor and customer ledger
A running cylinder balance for every distributor, dealer and customer, so disputes are settled with scan records instead of memory.
- Issued vs returned per party
- Deposit and rental reconciliation
- Ageing report on cylinders held outside
Real-time inventory monitoring
Live dashboards for RFID cylinder inventory management — full, empty, in transit, at customer, under test — across every plant and depot.
- Multi-plant and multi-depot views
- Filter by gas type, size or owner
- Scheduled reports by email
Cylinder loss and shrinkage control
Cylinders are among the most expensive assets a gas business owns. Cut float losses by making every untraced cylinder visible the day it goes missing.
- Untraced cylinder exception list
- Last-seen location and holder
- Recovery workflow for idle units
Where Cylinder Tracking Earns Its Keep
Different gases, different regulations, same underlying problem: a high-value returnable asset that leaves your site and does not always come back. Here is where SRK deploys RFID cylinder management.
LPG distribution
LPG cylinder tracking across bottling plants, dealers, delivery routes and household customers, with distributor balance reconciliation.
Industrial gas plants
Industrial gas cylinder tracking for oxygen, nitrogen, argon and mixed-gas fleets moving between plants, depots and contract customers.
Hospitals & medical oxygen
Medical gas cylinder tracking by ward, ICU and theatre, with batch accountability and hydro-test status visible before a cylinder is issued.
Welding & fabrication
Acetylene, CO₂ and mixed-gas cylinders issued to job sites and contractors, with a clear record of who signed for what.
Chemical & specialty gases
Hazardous and specialty gas cylinders with handling notes, MSDS references and strict traceability on every movement.
Fire extinguisher services
Refill, service and inspection cycles tracked per unit and per location, so an overdue extinguisher is impossible to miss.
Cryogenic vessels & dewars
High-value dewars monitored for location, turnaround time and idle days, where a single missing unit is a serious write-off.
Beverage CO₂ supply
CO₂ cylinders circulating between depots, bars, restaurants and event venues, tracked without adding paperwork to the delivery run.
Hydro-testing stations
Every test result logged against the cylinder serial, creating the inspection history auditors ask for years later.
