Procedures which must be observed to avoid personal injury, and even loss of life.

Procedures which must be observed to avoid damage to equipment, destruction of equipment, or long-term health hazards.

Essential information that should be remembered.

OXYGEN AND OXIDIZING GAS HAZARDS

• » Oxygen and gas mixtures containing large quantities of oxygen react chemically with organic materials to produce heat. This reaction can take place with explosive violence.
• » Electrostatic discharge and other potential sources of ignition should be kept away from high concentrations of oxygen or oxygen enriched gas mixtures.
• » Never permit oil, grease, or other combustible substances to come in contact with cylinders, valves, regulators, hoses, and fittings used for oxidizing gases such as oxygen.
• » Oxygen and gas mixtures containing oxygen pose the potential for oxidation of steel cylinders. The oxidation will reduce the strength of the cylinders. Such cylinders must be periodically inspected and tested.
• » Human exposure to atmospheres containing 12 percent or less oxygen will result in unconsciousness without warning, and so quickly that you cannot help or protect yourself.
