I've never seen kegs like that before. I'm sure someone here will know what to do with them, but they certainly aren't the normal kegs most of us use for homebrew. Those ones are referred to as Corny kegs. If my calculations are right, it says the max pressure on them is 50psi as well. Most of the corny kegs i've seen have a 130psi max pressure. If you use them you'll want to be careful to keep them under 50psi at all times. That's well above serving pressure, but it wouldn't be that outlandish for someone to receommend or use 50psi to quickly carbonate some beer, so just be careful.

I'd try to return them and get corny kegs.

if you can find the proper tap fitting for it and can figure out how to take them apart then you could use them. However if it were me I'd try to return them, not worth the trouble and you'll end up with corny kegs eventually anyway.

Looks like you need one of these:

You could then put plug adapters and corny keg posts on it if you end up getting corny kegs in the future.

If you can figure out how to take it apart then search for how to clean sankey kegs.
