Do have it tested. 22 psi is too high for a home canner. 10 to 15 psi are the common standards. To see what kind of forces are at work, calculate the inside area of the canner. Pi times the diameter gives you the area of the top and bottom. Now, take the diameter times the height. That gives you the area of the sides. Now, multiply that by 22 pounds, and you have the total force contained in the canner. You will find a shockingly high amount of force contained inside that vessel. Then recalculate using the correct 10 or 15 pounds. Quite a difference. Add to that, the superheated liquid contained within, and you will see that you have a potentially fatal amount of energy to be released in the case of a rupture. Please have it tested and recalibrated in necessary.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
