    It depends on the diameter as well. But there are not many kinds of cylinder around here, so a good guess would be a 3l - 5l one.
    But I'm pretty sure it's imprinted somewhere on the cylinder... Try looking again.

    It's normally printed in the box/pump. Otherwise, take diameter and muliply by the height of the canister (sans head) and divided by 1000. That will give you the capacity in Litres.

    Cheers,

    should be pi x radius2 x height. divide by 1000 if all dimensions in cm.
