	E-cylinders are used for delivery of fresh gases to the anesthesia machine in case of pipeline gas pressure failure.		An '''e-cylinders''' is a type of gas cylinder used for storage and containment of gases. In anesthesia, e-cylinders are typically used for delivery of fresh gases to the anesthesia machine in case of pipeline gas pressure failure. E-cylinders uses the [[pin index safety system]] (PISS) that ensures the correct placement of cylinders of a particular type of gas into the right location in the anesthesia machine.

	Unlike other gas cylinders, nitrous oxide is pressurized in liquid form, and therefore the pressure (psi) remains the same up until about 1/4 capacity (~400L).

E-cylinders are used for delivery of fresh gases to the anesthesia machine in case of pipeline gas pressure failure.

E-cylinders have a pin system that forces the correct placement of cylinders of a particular type of gas into the right location in the anesthesia machine.
