A method for calculating the autonomy of a gas distribution system assembly including a container containing gas and equipped with at least one gas filling indicator device and a gas flow rate indicator device at the output of the container. The method includes recovering at least one item of identification information on the container and/or the gas used. The method also includes acquiring at least one image to recover a first datum on a value indicated by the gas filling indicator device and a second datum on a value indicated by the flow rate indicator device. The method also includes communicating the at least one acquired image and the at least one recovered item of identification to a computation module configured to deduce therefrom a corresponding value of autonomy of the gas distribution assembly, the computation module including at least the ability to process images.
A gas distribution assembly comprising a gas container, a valve block fixed to the gas container and comprising at least one gas output coupling, and a gas flow rate regulation member having a face supporting an item of information relating to a flow rate of a gas, the gas distribution assembly further comprising a pressure gauge arranged to show an item of information relating to a pressure of the gas contained in the gas container, wherein a screen of the pressure gauge is disposed in proximity to a face supporting the item of information relating to the gas flow rate borne by the gas flow rate regulation member,
